We can thank Pokemon's mascot Pikachu for allowing us to catch Pokemon in Pokemon Go without the hassle of battling them first. I personally liked that part of encountering and catching Pokemon but it's kool... it's kool. This isn't a confirmed easter egg, though if Niantic included this scene from the anime into the game, it would be an easter egg.
If you haven't watched the anime, then hold up before reading the rest of this post. It may contain spoilers. If you don't wish to watch the anime, and or spoilers don't matter to you, then go right ahead and continue reading.
This scene begins with Ash stumbling upon everyone's "favorite" Pokemon to catch, Pidgey. Ash demands Pikachu to attack, which instead of listening to his trainer, Pikachu decides to find itself a limb to climb on and lay down. Ash, being the stubborn trainer he is, decided he doesn't need Pikachu's help, he can just catch the famous Pokemon by simply throwing a Pokeball at it.
This can also be done in the games; not weakening a Pokemon before trying to catch it. Ash isn't the only stubborn master. It is more plausible that this feature was put in the game to speed gameplay up a bit. The main objective is to "catch'em all". But... it's more fun to believe this was an easter egg intended to be found. Niantic confirmed a while ago, there were still several unfound easter eggs within the coding. I'm unsure of how to find out for sure, we all know Niantic won't respond, but I may have found other easter eggs in the game, so I will be covering what I have found over the next few days.
One thing that would have been nice for Niantic to do; like in the first episode of the anime, Ask doesn't catch Pidgey and it ends up fleeing. Did Ash lose his Pokeball? No! But It's okay that's not a very important feature. Who knows maybe you don't lose a Pokeball after a Pidgey flees, I sure haven't been paying attention to that.
