Dumbass, it's spamming A and B alternatively.

But B is the cancel button! Why would you cancel the pokemon catch? Obviously the correct way to pray is to mash the A button, and I'm prepared to invade your country and slaughter your people over this.

You gotta tap A and B while the pokeball wiggles then press B and down when it stops and if the timing is right it works

Wait, Just holding down B? No one mashes A/B while rotating the D-pad as soon as the ball drops to start shaking?

I like to stare straight at the screen cool-faced to show the algorithm I don't care about its bullshit

Who TF holds down B? Everyone knows you're supposed to mash A. No wonder ya'll can't catch shit. 💀

What a moron, everyone knows it's A on every shake

Fuckinb idiot! We all know the real trick is spamming A!

After reading all the different techniques people have commented, I guess I was alone in my childhood when my friends and I pressed as hard as we could on the gameboy colors Nintendo logo right below the screen. Lol

Pft A B down that's how it goes
