Timer Ball

Timer Balls are items introduced in Generation III.
==Effect==
Timer Balls are a type of Poké Ball. For every ten turns that pass in a battle with a wild Pokémon, the chances of capturing the Pokémon increases. On the first turn, the Timer Ball is no better than that of a standard Poké Ball. In the Generation III and Generation IV games, for each turn passed, the Timer Ball becomes 0.1x more effective at catching a Pokémon, for up to 4x the catch rate at thirty turns and onward, nearing that of a Master Ball. In Generation V onward, the Timer Ball reaches its highest catch rate of 4x sooner, once it is the tenth turn.
Timer Balls have a black, white, and red top with the sides of the top half being black and along with what appears to be a cooking timer type handle in orange pointing toward the button.

==Trivia==
*In Generation III and IV, the catch rate is determined by the formula: rate = \frac {x + 10}{10}, where x is the number of turns passed.
**In Generation V, the formula has been altered: rate = \frac {y + 1229}{4096}, where y is the catch rate (x1 is the default).
