Masterball/ poke ball glitch

Is it fact or fake that if you hold up the pokeball works as a masterball? Ive heard this for so long and wanted to find out. If so how does it work. i am an experienced player in pokemon. I just want to make the rate of catching easier though it wont be since I only use basic pokeballs for more of a challenge. I am sorry if this has been posted before.

They say that you use pokeballs only. right when you hit A you press SELECT and A then when it's just about to catch you press B and A.


edit: It WILL sometimes crash so you'll have to restart.

I believe it worked in r/b/y/g/s/c, but the ag games don't have it.

yep, fakefakefake. im pretty sure theres a topic somewhere that has all this "what buttons do you press when catching pokemon" thing. it really is more habit than anything else, i do it all the time, experimenting with the directional arrows and b. i know it doesnt work, it just makes me feel better for some reason :D

IT'S ASHER JESUS!!!
Tried and failed for me. Also I caught Mewtwo in a pokeball but I had to paralyze it and nearly kill it. But this was in my fire red version.
