[Spoiler-ish] Critical Capture [Not revealing pokemon]

A new game mechanism released in Black and White is the Critical Capture.
I had known about this method as i have had 3 (maybe 4) Critical Captures, but I didn't know what it was called xD

As quoted from Serebii:
"A totally new mechanic of capture is the Critical Capture. This feature works like Critical Hits in battle where there is a slight chance that this feature occurs. Critical Capture will be noticed when you throw the Pokéball. It'll pause in mid-air and make a metal noise. When it hits the Pokémon, it will shake once and capture. Critical captures very rarely fail and will almost always capture the Pokémon. The rarity of critical capture has yet to be calculated and this page will be updated when we know more

The critical capture feature is also used within the High Link Forest when you throw Dream Balls at the Pokémon who have appeared from the Dream World. This will guarantee their capture as you are unable to battle the Pokémon within this area."

Now this is very real, I'm not sure if a pokemon can escape from a Critical Capture (there are rumours) but getting a Critical Capture is rare so why let the poke still escape.

Discuss here about this new game mechanic

Critical capture seems pretty cool, i think it shouldn't always catch because then it would be like a masterball

So it's...ALMOST KINDA like using a master ball?

Did it say how often it happens?

Might make catching legendaries easier ♪

Might make capturing legendaries easier.... that's what everyone is saying.

People are figuring out the chances of getting a critical capture right now, but I can tell you this, you will never know when it will happen.

Unless there is a button combo xD i just mash buttons (only on legendaries when they start to get annoying) xDDD

Maybe people will use Down + B more often.

This is actually quite useful. It saves you Pokeballs and rarely fails, so it's all good.

But the timing, when exactly do you press Down and B o.o

I think I've done this while capturing Shimama, (I thought the game was going to freeze xD) but yeah, it only happened to me once.

It seems cool and useful

Never happened to me. D:
But it seems to be quite awsome if it does ever happen. (:
