- B button mashing to make catching easier

honestly the placebo's still there for me, and even though i know it's not real, i just can't help but do it from time to time, because what if? :p

Oh!! I absolutely still do the holding B to make the opponent's HP go down more/faster, even though I know it's bull.

I will never loose faith in mashing the 'B' button.

There were a couple that I tried in Gen 1 more because I wanted them to be real than because I believed them to be.

1. Talking to the fisherman who gives out the Super Rod 101 times gets an Ultra Rod from him that is capable of fishing up an HM that could be used to move the Mew truck.

2. There is a Togepi egg in Mount Moon that is obtainable via using the Itemfinder 101 times with an empty party slot.

There was a weird rumor about a secret area named "Diagonal Line" where you could catch a mythical bird pokemon (something like Hooh but not lmao).

Not kidding when I say this. But I was looking up how to get arcius in pearl and some website said that If you caught a shiny geodude it would have the azur flute as a held item. I was a dumb eleven year old wasn't i

I believed a tall tale that Mew had 6 move slots, instead of the normal 4.

I only fell in the year 2000 when people started to say that mew was in the van next to the s.s.anne in pokemon red hahaha
