Step 5: I throw ultra ball/ master ball if i really need it which i usually dont
Step 6: if i don't catch it restart from where i last saved
step 7: repeat
step 8: catch it hopfully
final step: shed a tear ;d
I never really had a lucky way to catch them until the 3rd Gen. Then I suddenly found myself holding B+Down just as the ball shuts. Been doing that ever since, hehe. :smile:
if its a loser pokemon; i tap the pokeball in the touch screen w/ a stylus every time the pokeball is supposed to wiggle. if its a rare pokemon that has more 'meaning' to it, i press my thumb on the pokeball, turn the sound off, and close my eyes.
when i was little, i alternated between pressing r/a/right(all at the same time) and pressing l/b/left. i did this rapidly, and the faster i did it, the more it would work
