What do you do when you throw a Pokeball?

[Saturn of Elemia]

I just throw the stupid ball and sit back. Besides...catching pokemon is really easy...unless you suck at the game.

 

I could imagine you cranking up some Death Metal and doing some awesome headbanging while trying to catch a Pokemon for some reason.

 

Well I tried that one time and ended up dropping my DS (I guess I rocked out a bit too hard).

 

That's why you get one of those straps like they have on the Wii Remote to put around your wrist - so you DON'T drop it in case you swing it around too hard (or rock out too hard in your case)

[Desu the Blue Nerd]

I push up and A and if I'm sending out a pokemon I would also say "Go _________ kick those loser's butts with your superior power."

The DS came with one but I took it off because it was annoying me (for some odd reason).

[Aniri Wulf]

I would scream stay in the ball. if it fails 5 times, i beat the loser up

[「tea.leaf」]

A + B + [direction of rotation] + [direction of rotation] + [direction of rotation] + Down

[~Shore]

I actually tap the screen when I throw a pokeball or when in battle. because I'm impatient and waiting for the options to show up again

[Amaterasu]

Since I play on a PC emulator, I usually open up a new window and brouse YCM or look up cheats.

 

EDIT: I have unlimited masterballs so I know I'll catch it even if its a trainers pokemon.

[Mazerrick]

I press ^ + A it works thats how I caught lots of my pokemon

[HoboJoe]

After using up half my ball inventory, I just yell frantically at the screen and walk out of the room.

[Larxene]

I press ^ + A it works thats how I caught lots of my pokemon

 

It doesn't work.

[Father Wolf]

I Pressed B with the older games' date=' and i think shouted gotcha at one point with diamon/pearl lol

 

I normally press and hold A

 

 

 

 

[ and I fap vigorously] <-----

 

I caught that ;)

xD

 

Pokemon are much more likely to respond to threats.

 

Try telling them that you'll kill their families if they don't stay in the Pokeball.

 

Nope. I hate Bidoof with a Passion so I purposely let the bastard Growl at me. Also the hatred comes out when something more worthwhile is missed. I suicide my Bidoof into something else.

 

Win.

 

i was wondering if anyone would XD

[Larxene]

I saw it.

 

Just didn't feel like replying to it, because I couldn't think of something funny to say at the moment.

[dbatesman91™]

i alternate between a and b because i saw it somewhere on the internet and it has never failed 8)

[FallenFanel21]

What's a Pokeball, Just kidding A + B repeatedly

[Slash]

I quickly hit only the "A" button.

Somewhere I read it increases the chance of you catching the Poke'mon.

[Danny Teh King]

I press nothing. All those wierd things don't work anyway.

[Dark]

What Dark does when he throws a Pokeball:

 

Step 1: Turn the volume off or so low it is not audible, also known as, off.

 

Step 2: Open up BAG and throw a Pokeball.

 

Step 2.1: If throwing a Master Ball, wait for Pokemon to be caught.

 

Step 2.2: If not throwing a Master Ball, go on to Step 3.

 

Step 3: Hold L and R until the Pokeball "hits" the Pokemon.

 

Step 4: Release L and R, and hold A, B, and X or Y.

 

Step 4.1: Hold X if the Pokemon is rare/legendary/shiny.

 

Step 4.2: Hold Y if its just a Pokemon.

 

Step 5: Wait for the Pokemon to be caught.

 

Step 5.1: If Pokemon is caught, wait for it to be added to the Pokedex, sent to my PC, or partied.

 

Step 5.2: If Pokemon is not caught, do one of the following.

 

Step 5.2.1: If too bored, pop in Action Replay and use 100% Capture Rate code.

 

Step 5.2.2: If not bored, soft reset and try again.

 

Step 6: Post in this thread.

New phrase from me trying to catch a Pokemon the other day "GET IN THE funking POKEBALL YOU PIECE OF PIXEL sheet!" I'm not kidding lol.

[Nnoitra Jiruga]

A and B,I caught Moltres,articuno,zapdos and Lugia without pressing anything cause in GC games,it most likely actually works

[Dark]

New phrase from me trying to catch a Pokemon the other day "GET IN THE f***ing POKEBALL YOU PIECE OF PIXEL s***!" I'm not kidding lol.

 

Pixel sheet? That sounds like what happens when you ate too many computers for breakfast. ^_^

[Larxene]

Your method isn't any less stupid. xD

 

At least James' method is lulzy. =D

[evilhorus]

I usually press A and B.

 

Same here. I dnt know why though. It might just be a habit. I think Ive been doing it ever since I got a Pokemanz game.

 

That^^

 

I've heard that' date=' 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..

[/quote']

 

I wouldnt be surprised if it did.

[.arx]

I turn the game off.

 

I never use a Pokeball and never will. I use "Premier Balls" and "Great Balls" and "Ultra Balls" and "Master Balls".

[Larxene]

Pokeball refers to every type except for Masterballs.

[El Beasto Perezoso]

I have three and a half levels of insanity while doing this:

 

Level 1: I do nothing, just let the ball hit its target and wait.

 

Level 2: I turn the volume off, and hit the A button when the ball hits, B when it shakes once, Y on two, and hold X with all my might on 3 along with praying it stays in.

 

Level 3 (Occurs after 20+ Balls have been wasted): I throw the ball, throw the game down, and start yelling "Get in the d*** ball you f****** piece of bloody s***!!!"

 

Level 3.5 (Only for legendaries): Throw the ball, set the game down, come back an hour later to see the thing didn't work, start jumping up and down, then I kill the pokemon.
