Larxene Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Whenever you throw a Pokeball, you ever press random buttons repeatedly, even though you know it does nothing? I do. Dx it just makes me feel better about myself when I finally catch something decent. I usually press A and B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAG Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I push A and up, because I read somewhere that if you do that, it will have the power of a Master Ball. I'm sure that it doesn't work, but that doesn't keep me from trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holy Babylon Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I hold A and look away from the screen, closing it halfway and turning the volume down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willieh Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I jab a knife into my video game. That way if I didn't catch it, I'll never know; meaning I can just safely assume that I would've caught it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jericho Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 When its like a legendary pokemon or another one that I really want, I throw the ball, turn my DS upside down, and hold my breath staring at the pokeball without blinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturn of Elemia Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Nothing. I just throw it and hope the Pokemon gets caught. If not, I just throw another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raelen Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I've heard that, on the DS, if you shout, "GOTCHA!" during the capture process, you will most likely catch the Pokemon. I'm not sure if it actually works though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larxene Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 It doesn't. None of these supposed "methods" to increase your odds actually work. We just like to think they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
