Gaming myths you've fallen for

[Mass Distraction]

Speaking of Pokémon and fondling something 50 times, I've got two seperate things.

First is the hint I got in an old Pokémon magazine where it said that if you hold the [insert buttons here] when you throw/are about to throw/have just thrown/the ball has just closed on the wild pokémon and it makes catching everything as easy as using a master ball. There's like a billion of the variations and as far as I know none of them works. I still press B when the ball has closed on a pokémon, though, just as a good luck charm.

As for pressing something 50 times, I never believed you would actually get something if you searched Wesker's desk in RE2 that many times. Turns out it actually works. I also used to not believe that MissingNO in Pokémon exists.
