Pokemon X and Pokemon Y

Why not?
 
I would do the same. Since Pokéballs are very cheap, I tend to carry around a huge amount of them to reduce the chance of them running out. As a result of this, I catch the majority of things in Pokéballs.
 
ok

i guess i never thought of it like that because i never buy pokeballs after great balls get introduced
 
Since they eliminated the stack limit of 99, I try to maintain an amount of about 200+ Pokéballs on me and I buy new ones once the number drops below 200. I'd burn too much money if I did the same for Great Balls or Ultra Balls.

Sure, money is cheap in this game, but why throw it away like crazy?

I would assume that the fun would increase. Longer battle times means more suspense, and I LOVE suspense.

SWISH! FWOOOOM! BONK BONK! NUDGE! NUDGE! NUDGE! NUDGE! CRICKLE!

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU CAUGHT A LEGENDARY POKEMON! LEAVE HIM IN THE BOX, HE'S BASICALLY USELESS FROM THIS POINT FORWARD!

Yes, I'm aware of that. Actually, it's much, much harder to catch a stupid Beldum than, say, Reshiram or Xerneas. I think Mewtwo is statistically the hardest one to catch out of those I mentioned, but I'm not sure. It took me around 30 Poké Balls or something like that.

It's definitely a good thing that Beldum can be caught with the Pokemon Dream Radar, because it's very annoying to catch in the wild.

Oh, yeah, definitely, Beldum is probably the hardest Pokemon to catch in existence. All it knows is Take Down, so the only way you can stop it killing itself is if you have a ghost type.

Even then, it'll eventually Struggle itself to death. A catch rate of 3 can be very ridiculous if you don't have any Master Balls in your possession.

I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but too much repetition usually kills suspense and leaves you with nothing but boredom. So a longer battle time just means longer lasting boredom.
 
Eh, it's a personal thing. I say, longer battles = more challenge = more exciting. Like the first time I played SoulSilver, my battle with Lance lasted about 45 minutes at least, it could've been more. That was exciting for me.
 
Was there a part where you had to throw Pokéballs at the enemy for fifty consecutive turns in your battle against Lance?
 
There wasn't. I guess you were talking more on catpuring legendaries than trainer battles. I don't mind that either. Well legendaries should have an extremely low capture rate. Their legendaries after all. It should be difficult. I personally don't want games to make it incredibly easy for me to do seemingly difficult things.
