The Fast Ball is a PokéBall obtained from Kurt. In Gold, Silver & Crystal, this ball works better on Pokémon that flee from battle, such as the roaming Pokémon. In these instances, its capture rate is 4. In all other cases, it is 1. In HeartGold/SoulSilver, this ball is based upon the wild Pokémon's base Speed stat. If the Pokémon has a Speed of more than 100 then the capture rate is 4. If it is less than 100, then the capture rate is 1.
CatchValue = ((( 3 * Max HP - 2 * HP ) * ((Catch Rate * 4) * 1 ) / (3 * Max HP) ) * Status Modifier
