Pokemon Go Players Share Which Catches Their Children Used Master Balls On

Pokemon Go players come together to share unfortunate Master Ball Fails that come from raising the next generation of tiny trainers.

Pokemon Go recently introduced Master Balls, which guarantee the catch of any Pokemon they are used on. However, trainers only received one of these special balls, causing them to be extra careful about what they used it on. Unfortunately, not all balls have been thrown at dream companions after a heated and difficult battle.
