One thing I am curious about...

I noticed is that a pokemon doesn't seem to run if you miss a throw. They also don't seem to run on a berry action. If anything, running seems to happen only near the beginning.

After about the 4-5th action, the pokemon no longer seem to run. I have been wondering if someone online has studied this. One of the things I am wondering... if you ran into something super rare, whether you'd be able to miss a bunch of throws on purpose to ensure the pokemon won't run mid battle?

Obviously, this can be patched and the pokemon could start running later, but for now, it would work. I've been paying attention to people around me at grind points catching the same monster and often, running seems to only occur for the first 3-4 ish actions of razzberries or escapes. I only seemed to see people lose the monster right away, catch within a few throws, or stand around for a significant while for a long attempt.
