    It's made of materials that slowly decompose into the ground!

    If a pokem on busts out of it from the inside, then it's, more likely than not, busted. The pieces just hang around until they get buried. Perhaps pokeball frags look no different from your average, everyday rock.

    Here it is

    The pokeball has a high pwer spring and impact sensor. The spring also moves. Every peice of the poekball(outer) os able to release the spring because there are slots located all around the pokeball. once the impact sensor sense impact, the spring goes to the spot that the iompact was located abnd springs out. How does it come back to you? well, the ball is now in the air and every pokeall has a human DNA sensor in it that reads whatever peice of your DNA you would put in it. The ball then flies towards you, at whatever rate you can catch it, and how high it should be(this is done by earlier setting the ball) the DNA sensor then is "attracted" to you and you catch the ball. The DNA sensor also tells which pokemon are yours and which aren't.

  • That can't be true. In the anime, there have been numerous times that Team Rocket has taken everyone's Pokemon (inside the Pokeballs, mind) and Ash couldn't figure out which ones were his.

    No When the balll flies back, it goes towards the person. When it's just sitting there, anyone can take it.

    Maybe the trainer has jedi powers @_@
    He/She concentrates on the pokeball and then the pokemons trust in the trainer gains and then the ball flies into the trainers hand...
    Or the trainer just has to pick the ball up from the ground seems like the best answer :D

    Well, a Poké Ball flies back to the person's hand in the anime, but the actual canon are the games, where you don't get the Poké Ball back. Perhaps in the games the ball breaks?

    Though, I can't comprehend the question well. Are you asking us what we think it does if we don't catch the Pokémon or if we do catch the Pokémon?​

    The aren't the Pokeballs you're looking for...

    I personally think the Pokeball just breaks after a Pokemon busts out, especially when facing large Pokemon and legendaries.

    The PokeMart employees pick it up off the ground after you've left, meaning you have to buy it back off of them :P

    But seriously, it must be messy after you've caught a legendary and left about 80 Pokeballs on the ground

    Don't worry. The places where Legendary Pokémons reside in are barely visited, so no one would notice. ;P

    In the anime, they come back. In the game, they break into pieces by the Pokémons' resistance.

    I think it just disappears into your pockets, or something along the lines of disappearing.

    well if its your pokemon then like in the anime
    I would think the ball flys back to your hand. But
    when you try to catch a pokemon and it fails I'm
    pretty sure the ball is suppose to break apart.

    I would say its probably biodegradable like other
    people are saying.
