How can I improve catch rates in Pokemon Go?
In the original three Pokemon games, you could hold A + B + Down while tossing a Pokeball to increase the catch success rate. Since Pokemon Go is on mobile platforms, is there an equivalent combo for the touchscreen?
EDIT: As I have now been informed, my childhood belief was merely a placebo. But my question still stands, are there any strategies that can be used when attempting to catch a Pokemon to improve success rates?
Best Answer
Yes. If you hold the pokeball down you'll see a ring on the pokemon go from large to small, if you wait until the ring is as small as possible to throw the ball, you will have a higher chance of catching the pokemon.

How do I get better at catching Pokémon?
A Pok\xe9mon's catch probability depends on several factors such as throw bonuses, the Pok\xe9mon's Level, and ball and berry choices (see Table 9). Each Pok\xe9mon also has an individual base catch rate (BCR), so some are harder to catch than others.HOW TO MAXIMIZE YOUR CHANCE OF CATCHING WILD POKÉMON IN POKÉMON GO
