What is the "catch window" in Pokemon Legends Z-A?

The catch window in Pokemon Legends Z-A is the small duration between knocking down a Wild Pokemon completely and its despawning. If you can catch the Pokemon during this interval using any Poke Ball, it counts as using the "catch window" to add a critter to your roster.

Generally, Wild Pokemon in the mainline games despawn immediately after you reduce its health to zero. Since Legends Z-A allows the Pokemon to stay on the field for a little duration, this term itself is a new addition.
