A Pokemon Go player asked if they should go buy some lottery tickets after they made an incredibly lucky catch, featuring a classic Pokemon that has troubled trainers since the game’s launch.
Pokemon Gohas featured hundreds of different pocket monsters to catch in their mobile game since it was first released. As they say, Gotta Catch ‘Em All.
Yet as more have beenadded to the gameand various updates have followed over the years, some originalPokemonhave still proved much trickier than others, even for the more experienced trainers.
One of these was recently caught by a player who couldn’t believe their luck when they finally snagged the iconic and infamously “impossible” Zubat with an ‘Excellent’ throw.
Pokemon Go player shows off Excellent Zubat catch
Pokemon Go playerNintend0Geekasked in aReddit post: “So should I go buy some lottery tickets right now?” after they revealed they had hit an Excellent throw on the infamously hard-to-catch Zubat.
“No. Pretty sure you spent all of your luck for the week with this one,” a player responded to the post. Another described the achievement as, “truly pushing the boundary of peak human performance.”
Players soon began to reminisce on their attempts to hit the perfect throw and catch a Zubat for themselves.
Zubat instantly became a popular meme in the Pokemon Go community since the mobile pocket monster game was released. This was due to players becoming infuriated over its small hitbox and its constant flying around, which continues to make it almost impossible for Pokemon Go trainers to catch.
