When you defeat a wild Pokemon it spends some time acting dizzy before it disappears.

  • What is this equivalent to for catching purposes? Does it have the same rate as a Pokemon with 1 HP? Is there any boost for being in this state?
  • If the Pokemon acquired a status condition during battle, is the status condition factored into the catch rate? Note that the status symbol disappears once the Pokemon is knocked out and the Pokemon no longer has a status if caught.
  • If the status condition is not factored in, would a fully knocked out Pokemon have a worse catch rate than a Pokemon with very low HP and a status condition?

Well, according to:
https://rotomlabs.net/guide/legends-z-a-capture-mechanics
You get a 1.2x multiplier for catching stunned pokemon (when you defeat them) For alphas, which have a 0.5x catchrate multiplier normally, their catch rate gets a 3x bonus. As for status conditions
Did your comment get cut off? That link and its associated calculator have the information that answer my questions, so if you want to write a response to each of them in an answer I'll accept it
