Use it on a shiny! If you ever run into a shiny Pokémon, that's your cue. Shiny Pokémon are extremely rare, and the last thing you want is for one to escape. It's basically the best use for your Master Ball unless you've got your eye on a specific legendary.

Save it. You'll meet Pokémon that are a pain to catch. THAT'S when you use it.

Honestly, just use it whenever you feel like it. The game throws so many challenges and cool Pokémon at you, so if you're really struggling to catch one that you absolutely love, why not? It's a game, meant to be enjoyed, not stressed over saving one item forever.

The Master Ball is basically the VIP pass of Pokeballs - it catches anything without fail! Save it for a Pokémon that's super rare or a legendary, like Koraidon in Scarlet. You don't want to waste this golden ticket on just any Pokémon you stumble upon!
