The Master Ball is extremely rare to obtain in Pokémon Go. A player has now wasted his ball on a weak Pokémon. If only he hadn’t handed his phone to his child.
What happened? The player must have been at the beach with his family and had his smartphone with him. Because exciting Pokémon can appear even at the beach, which one naturally wants to catch. He reported this on reddit.
At the beach, he handed his phone to his son. And he didn’t hesitate to throw the valuable Master Ball at the nearest Wommel. A Wommel is a tiny insect that can evolve into Bandelby and has been present since the 7th game generation.
What makes the Master Ball so valuable? The Master Ball is only very rarely available in Pokémon Go and is often associated with extensive research, which is also not always available.
What makes the Master Ball so valuable, however, is its ability: Because when you throw the Master Ball at a Pokémon, the throw always succeeds. No matter how difficult the catch would normally be. For this reason, players save the ball for particularly tricky pocket monsters, such as the extremely rare Galar birds.

There has been criticism for a long time when children have smartphones
How do other players react? In the thread, many players say that the player is to blame for handing his phone to his son. An expensive phone simply does not belong in children’s hands, although it is, of course, convenient for parents to distract their own annoying child this way:
- “I believe that 80% of all used Master Balls are due to parents handing their phone to their child.”
- “No. People need to stop giving thousands of dollars worth of phones to stupid children.”
- “That’s why I just let my son cry instead of letting him play with my phone, I’m laughing my head off.”
However, the mentality of handing smartphones or other electronic devices to very young children has been criticized for some time. The Deutsche Welle quotes an American pediatrician who explains that the social development of children is disrupted in the long term when a smartphone is handed to children under 2 years old. Toddlers may respond to the colorful flickering, but they do not understand what they are seeing.
Those who buy a smartphone quickly find many so-called tips that are supposed to improve performance or battery life. However, many of these “tips” are not true at all. You can read more about it directly on MeinMMO:
