alright so I went out to catch a beldum in the hoenn safari zone , no issue there , i could find it and all, first time i found it i catched it with like a few pokeballs , no problem , but my friend threw over 100k of pokemoney in there to catch it , and couldnt get it , now i went in there to do it for him since i have a bit more luck in these kind of thing...
2nd encounter i had 67 pokeballs on me , 1 greatball and 5 ultraballs , a total of 73 pokeballs , i could not catch it even though it was on like 1 hp (atleast under 10hp for sure , did not risk to use false swipe as he dmgs himself with takedown) , so i went to buy 200 pokeballs

now i do understand that beldum is kind of rare to find and its a 9 on a scale from 1-10 of how hard it is to catch , but i mean in total i spend a total of 75k pokemoney just for a beldum , and my friend spend even more (more than 100k pokemoney) just to see it 3 times and not being able to catch it, to sum it up:
3 times entering the safari zone - 15k
pokeballs - 53.400
greatball - 600
ultraballs - 6k
( lucky that it is rounded up on perfect 75k lol )
now with this post i don't want to ask my money or stuff back but i just want that the devs spent attention to this ridiculous amount of effort for only 1 pokemon and hope they would do something about it...

ps - i made the screenshots to my friends on discord just because i thought it was weird ( added that screenshot aswell as a bit more proof so people cant say i make this up)
