D057 controls what type of battle it is. Try to find a Pokeball throwing routine (look in the disassembly) and look for code that checks D057 for not being 1. If it's not 1, it won't let you catch the Pokemon, so make it let you catch it no matter what value is there.

I only answer that question because I knew it without looking up. One of the few cheatcodes I remember by heart is 010157D0, the Gameshark code to allow you to capture any trainer's Pokemon. You can't just make the game always set it to 1 though, because then if you defeat the first Pokemon, the battle would be over without facing the others.

Edit: Oh right, yeah, I keep forgetting there are other versions than Red/Blue. Thanks for mentioning which version you're asking about.

Are we talking Gen. I or II, here? Anyway, without looking at Pokered (it's  not in front of me, at the moment), for Gen I, try: 010157D0

I am at a different computer now and found it on Google in 29 seconds. Gameshark does absolute addressing in RAM, so it's little Endian. RAM is viewed as big Endian in BGB debugger. Gameshark hacks RAM while Game Genie hacks ROM. It freezes a temporary value at a specific address for a while. Go to D057 (big Endian of 57D0, from the code... $01 should be there) and see what it does. I traced a WRAM once to re-enable the Celebi event. So, your options are to look at the address using a code to see what it does (add a breakpoint), or use Pokered.

I put a breakpoint in Crystal using a Gameshark code to trace the 2 Celebi event flags, so the same principal applies here.

Try GymEdit or Pokémon RB Trainer Editor: http://swamperttools.webs.com/downloads.htm

There are Gen. II tools there, too. Since you didn't specify a version.
