I think the fact of defeating all mons to catch one is nonintuitive. Everyone tries to individually catch at first. The horde encounter could still go on after catching a single pokemon.

But what's the point of it? The fact that it's been like that for years doesn't mean it can't be improved.

Picture this... I was exploring lostlorn forest and was told there you can find Zorua but disguised as another pokemon with his ability Ilusion. I thought it was cool, i had to hit every pokemon to find out if anyone was Zorua. After i finally found one, i was excited and wanted to catch it... but i got stopped by a line of text stating: ''It's no good! It's impossible to aim when there are two Pokémon!''. I personally find it really annoying having to defeat all pokemon except the one you want to catch. Besides, it's a waste of time in the matter of catching same specie pokemons. I briefly discuss the issue with a mod, and he states it is like that just because of the original games. I actually don't remember sweet scent under generation V to trigger horde encounters. Finally, since PokeMMO is a fan-made game and a growing community, i think it would be relevant and advantageous to make the mod and be able to individually choose the pokemon we want to catch; without having to defeat the rest of the horde.
