But the 50 xp gained from losing 5 pokeballs isn't worth it IMO. I just let them pass by and catch whatever else passes by. If you hardly find pokemon, I can understand why one would pursue such a time and pokeball waster. But if neither is you situation, I suggest to move along.
You get 100 exp for every catch + more if you do a nice, great or excellent throw. You also get 50 exp for collecting from each pokestop, which gets you more pokeballs. So I just catch everything I see and keep stocked up all the time from always hitting pokestops.
