Well, until someone catches it. Then it disappears.

Have you actually played the game? There is no competition for catching Pokemon. They spawn and disappears after a certain amount of time, which mapping apps by the way used to show you. Other people catching Pokemon has zero influence on your ability to catch the same Pokemon.

Uh no. It doesn't disappear because it was caught.
