Possible way to guarantee a legendary catch
First and foremost, forgive me if someone already brought this up. I've been busy with work the last couple of weeks so I haven't monitored the Q&A section.
I've caught five legendarues in the last week and for the most part I've had to throw a lot of balls and use a lot of Golden raspberries to catch them. It gets really nerve racking when you get down to that last ball and you still haven't caught them!
One of the Articuno if I caught was on the first throw. I used a golden raspberry but didn't get a throw bonus because I just missed outside an excellent circle. I was very surprised to see that I caught him!
It just so happened that he was my first catch of the day on my 7 day streak. Obviously I can't replicate these results until six days from now, but I'm very curious to see what happens.
Has anybody else noticed this?

A coincidence. I just caught an Articuno today as my first catch on my 7 day streak as well. But guess what - it wasn't on my first ball. Infact, it was on something like my 7th or 8th, if not even later (I think I had 12 balls in total). I remember, because I was starting to be sure that I wouldn't catch it since it just kept breaking out of the balls.
