I forgot all about that. I think everyone did that. I also think that it was the first use of the Internet to spread rumors.

When I use to play years ago I think I pressed the down button thinking it helped keep the pokeball shut.

I used to press the A button on nearly every Gameboy game, not just Pokemon. The thought that it did nothing pass my mind a couple of times, but I let such evil thoughts pass.

Never even heard of such a trick, so it doesn't work. If it did, it would have spread like wildfire. Never been told anything of the sort.

I always thought it was B and down, held down from when the pokeball closes to when it is finished.

I used to hold down B and up and rapidly press A.
