Catching - what button?

In the gameboy games it improves your catching chance if you press and hold B when the pokeball opens.

Is there a similar thing in the gamecube games?
Is it A or B?
When do you press it?

Thanks

The catching rate does not improve by pressing any buttons at all.. that's just a myth...

Are you sure? It always seems to on the gameboy games. I've tried it several times with and without and I think it makes a difference.

Maybe in r/b/y but not after that. And I'm sure it doesn't work on the 3rd gen.

Ok fair enough. It doesn't matter now. Managed to snag all of Grand Master Greevils Pokemon thanks to a lot of items, shadow half and a very tough salamence.

Edit: I know this is unrelated but i didnt want to start a new topic.

Do the berries work the same way as in Emerald (removing EVs) because I don't have access to Emerald
