I think I saw someone mention mechanics such as ball capturing or something. I haven't played palworld so idk if thats accurate.
That could be. Palworld has a similar mechanic, even the 2 step shake before capture confirmation.
2 step shake can be argued as 3rd times the charm rule. Do thing twice then it works the 3rd time, unpatentable as its in most video games, typically for boss fights.
