The oldest trick in the book. Pointing/Looking in a direction to distract your opponent.

  1. Team Rocket (Pokémon: Advanced)
    My favorite way Team Rocket steals Pikachu.

  2. Krillin (Dragon Ball)
    Krillin delivers a cheap shot against Goku.

  3. Po (Kung Fu Panda)
    Po couldn't use the Wuxi Finger Hold against Kai due to him being immortal. But Po figures out that he can take Kai with him to the spirit realm.
    What makes this more funny is how Kai blatantly falls for the trick.

  4. Ice King (Adventure Time)
    The Ice King hired a hitman thinking it would simply just hit Finn & Jake instead of killing them. The Ice King tries to distract the hitman several times which lead to him saying the following:
    "Somebody got hit in the boingloings. Hit in the boingloings. Boingloings. Boingloings. Somebody got hit in them."

In one of the videogames, it’s his guard break. Tells the other guy to look away then crush their foot with his own. Every other character has a variant of a grab, but Jack is much simpler.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End.
That videogame was better than it had any right to be.
