New Pokeballs?!
Ok, so we all know that there are always some new Pokeballs in every generation (I think?) So why not discuss what new Pokeballs will be coming with the 5th Generation!
Post away! |
A cloud ball? Probably use it on flying types, and if we ever get the feature to guide out pokemon when their flying, that ball could be specific for only that feature.
|
Black ball
It turns pokemon black |
im hopin a ball like the ORIGINAL fast ball
the run ball i guess you could call it that, so you can catch perky roarers, whirlwinders,& teleporters lol (also selfdestructers :P ) |
or how about the dead ball. If you have one in your bag and the pokemon faints, it gives you one last chance to try and catch it. It's catch rate would be at its highest since its fainted, but could still escape.

I really don't mind what they do as long as they look cool. I wish I could use Cherish Balls freely. U_U |
I want a Pokeball that increases one of the stats of the pokemon captured as soon as it's taken out but this only lasts for 3 turns then the effect disappears! I call it the Energy ball!
|
That would be sooo broken.
|
I never use special PokeBalls, so I don't really care. Well, okay, sometimes I use Heal Balls, but besides that, I like to stick to the normal ones.
Maybe they'll have something similar to Kurt's Apricorns. That would be nice. |
Sunrise Ball:Stronger than Ultra Ball when Time is Morning.
DayBreak Ball:Stronger than Ultra Ball when Time is Day. Power Ball:Stronger than Ultra Ball when Opponents Base Stat of Attack/Sp.Attack is Higher than 100. |

The point of capturing is that you have to make sure you DON'T faint the pokémon, introducing a ball that means it doesn't matter makes capturing new Pokémon (Legendaries especially) stupidly easy. It's basically a master ball. |
Volcano Ball: Similar to Net Ball,but Ups Catch chance for Fire and Rock types.
Snag Ball(LOL XD)Steal Trainers Pokemon |
Yeah I'm looking forward to more balls optomized for diff. types

If not, then answer me. How could one made a Poke Ball out of a Cheri or Leppa Berry? |
Ooooh! I never thought about pokéballs!
I like the idea of a cloud Ball! There are type based balls... like the net ball! Maybe some thing like.. uh.. Lite ball? Theres a heavy ball so why not lite? It works well on lighter pocket monsters!!! |
Shiny ball: Better chance og catching shiny pokemon (I used 21 Ultraballs to catch a bloody shiny Shinx, with red hp)
Rainbow ball: works better on pokemon with ColorSync og the rainbow Iron ball: best for catching Steel pokemon. |
I like the idea of the Pokéball that works better during the morning or day. We've already got one for nighttime so why not?
I don't like having a ton of Pokéballs but I'm sort of in agreement with some more type-based balls. D: It just seems fair, you know? We've got (several?) water-type balls, I think one for bug-types... I think we need more. Maybe a Pokéball that catches things easier in the city (so maybe poison, flying, etc.)? This region does seem to be more urban. If they spread them out so each typed ball can catch several different types more easily, we don't have to deal with 15+ specific Pokéballs. @[email protected] And really I'd be fine with anything that corresponds to an already existing type of Pokéball. Like the Lite Ball that Mew~ suggested. |
I think that a Light Ball would work amazingly, we will most likely have the different types of the day, such as morning, afternoon, and night, so why not have one for the morning? Good idea Mew.
|
Oddish Ball,works better for Oddish ;D
|
Sleep ball after throwing 3-5 of them the pokemon goes to sleep making it easier to catch.
|
Quote:
I'd rather just get my Clefable to use Sing. o3o |
maybe a type of pokeball that increases the caught pokemon's speed, strengh, or defense. Maybe call it power ball for strengh, jolt ball for speed, and shield ball for defense. haha i dont know! what about a adoraball xD a pokeball made to catch adorable pokemon!
|
Energy Ball? Even though there is a move called that. The ball could be used to say catch a pokemon with a certain aura or energy level, if you get what I mean. Like they went through the whole thing about how Lucario is a pkmn that can sense diff. levels of aura, yet it was never implemented into the game so it should be included in black and white. If there is a new type then the ball could be used to catch this 'light' type of pokemon assuming light pkmn have the power to control diff. energy levels a.k.a. light in one way or another.
|
What about a mix between an ultra ball and a heal ball.
Has 2x capture rate than an ultra ball, but fully restores the targets HP if it breaks free. That way it's not an UBER-Ball |
Suicide ball. The lower the user's HP, the higher the catch rate.
|
Shiny Ball: They Catch shinnies without fail. How to get: Pokemart 200P. And at the start of the game your mom bought you some thinking that they make pokemon Shiny. Yes. You DO Get these before Pokéballs.
|
Quote:
Oh...And think about the furious parents that will whine about the name of the ball. Quote:
|
I (Along with my friend Davis) am hoping for a comeback of the GS ball.. remember back in Gen. II, in the Celebi event when u could only catch Celebi with the GS ball, but this time it would only be made if you gave the Silver Wing and Rainbow Wing to Kurt...
|
How about a ball that has a 5x capture rate but if the Pokemon breaks free then it injures the Pokemon?
|
How about a shock ball?like it stuns the pokemon if the ball doesn't catch it where you have a better chance of not dieing while trying to capture a pokemon.Big ball?Works good on big pokemon.Small ball?Works better on small pokemon.Sly ball?Better possiblity of catching a pokemon and I know it sounds like a great ball or somthing but oh well.
|
Quote:
Plus, Sly Ball you've said, We're already got a lot of Pokeballs to catch small Pokemon. Why not Ultra Ball? I works well... |

Persistence Ball
It starts with a .5x capture rate, but gains .5x each time you use one in succession. Having your lead pokemon faint does not break this succession, but using any move or manually switching out does. Who WOULDN'T want a ball like that? |
Black and White are the most opposing game titles to date, so I'm thinking there will be plenty of version exclusives and differences. I thought of an "Exclusive" Ball, a ball that has a higher catch rate on Pokemon you have a better chance of getting in a specific game.
It works like this: Lets say there are some Pokemon differences in White and Black: In White, you can catch Zekrom but not Reshiram, and Solrocks appear much more commonly than Lunatones. In Black, you can catch Reshiram but not Zekrom, and Lunatones appear much more commonly than Solrocks. According to these conditions: In White, the catch rate would be the best for Zekrom, and a smidge lower for Solrock. In Black, the catch rate would be the best for Reshiram, and a smidge lower for Lunatone. In both games the catch rate would be the lowest at Pokemon like Generic Starting Bird and Generic Vendor Trash Critter that you are equally likely to find in both games. This ball would be ideal for people that catch Pokemon to help friends with the different version out, or maybe for catching the legendaries. |
I think I speak for most Pokemon trainers when I say that there are already too many bloody Pokeballs! We don't need anymore, all we need is more than one Masterball a game so that we don't have to send more over to our current game, that would enough for most of us I think.

I love being able to catch different pokemon in different balls, and the fact that you can see that ball whenever they are sent out is even better. I think different balls are a great little feature in the game. Judging by most of the comments in this thread, lots of people agree. |
What about, rather than introducing new pokeballs, how about revamping the old ones? Like, occcasionally you get the pokeball back after throwing it. I mean, where did all those pokeballs go, anyway? Do they lie at /insertlegendaryhere/'s feet? I mean seriously. And I'd like to sometimes have my pokeballs miss. It's irritating, but more realistic. Since when do ten year olds have perfect aim without fail, every time?
For a new ball, I'd like a Hate ball. It has a higher catch rate than an ultra ball, but the pokemon despises you as a permanent effect. Yay frustration :)! |
Quote:
|
I can't think of anything interesting they could come up with. DX That Cloud Ball doesn't sound too bad an idea, though.
|
Uh....maybe a Rare Ball. The rarer the pokemon, the higher the catch rate, the commoner the pokemon, the lower the catch rate. Or maybe a Donon Ball. Works better on catching Donon Pokemon.(If you don't know what Donon means, pm me.)
|
Flower Ball---A better chance catching a Pokemon with flowers on them.
Roselia, Roserade, Cherrim, Bellossom, Vileplume, Sunflora, etc. Bird Ball--Better chance of catching flying types. |
A ball that has a lower catch rate than a pokeball for all those epic players, since they're so good and everything.
|
Probably some pokeballs based on the terrain.
Grass Ball - Better catch rate for Pokemon found on grass (Needs unoriginal name) Dive Ball - Better catch rate for Pokemon found on water (Already Exists) Cave Ball - Better catch rate for Pokemon found in caves/dungeons (Needs unoriginal name) |
What about a "Slow Ball"? Everytime this pokeball fail to catch a pokemon it's catch rate will increase. Also I like that idea of getting back the pokeball after a fail attempt of capture.
|
How about these:
Sunny Ball: Higher catch-rate when the weather is sunny.Lower catch-rate when raining. Rain Ball: Higher catch-rate when raining. Lower catch-rate when sunny. Sand Ball: Higher catch-rate when in a sandstorm. Lowers the foe's accuracy. |
Or how about a 1337Ball that catches pokemon 100% of the time and when you catch it you get to change its IV's and give it EV's and chose its level. When it goes into battle you can change its type and moves.
On a more serious note, Pokeballs that change catch rate depending on the location like Logiedan's idea. Or bring back Dive ball and add dive again ^^. |
I'm hoping for a Snag Ball, like in XD, and maybe a ball that works better on tall/short pokemon
|
How about some backstory?
My Idea: Tectonic movements meant Cinnabar Island was no longer a hotspot. Magma welled up in Slowpoke's Well, this meant the Slowpoke evacuated, and everybody left Azalea. However, Azalea was destroyed, so people were left homeless. Kurt moved to Isshu, and will make Apricorn PokeBalls for you! |
well, they could make an opposite of a friendly ball, to make frustration a viable move
I'd actually like balls that had some sort of special effect when you sent the pokemon out, like lightning or fire |
Quote:
It would be nice to see a Pokéball for each type of Pokémon (fire, water, dark, ghost, thunder, etc) and the effect added would be to increase the catching rate if used the same type of Pokéball on the Pokémon. I think that would be really interesting. |
Random Ball: Catch rates are completely random.
|
i like the idea of PokéBalls with types, weather advantages, and bringing Kurt to Isshu, maybe there are new varieties of apricorn in Isshu. anyway, giving PokéBalls types and abilities could effectively quadruple or octuple the catch rate of the ball, like say if the Sand Ball was "A Pokéball designed to be used in a Sandstorm and/or on Ground type Pokémon" then the catch rate would be 1 if used anywhere besides a desert, 2 if used in a Sandstorm, but not on a ground type Pokémon, 4 if used on a ground type pokémon, but not in a desert, and 8 if both conditions are met. 8 would be the highest catch rate recorded for a Pokéball
|
An addon to the Poke, Great, Ultra, Master series would be good.
Since imo Poke = 20, Great = 30, Ultra = 40 (all up to) and Master = All, so maybe something for 50/60/70, or around there. Mega ball, lol. |
Apprentice Ball??
That would be viable I suppose. Or Champion Ball? (Champion has won pokemon league, Master has caught all pokemon aswell as winning league). |

Same goes with Super Ball. o3o |

I've been thinking about this, like a mechanism to catch pokemon, since it's up to the game, and not to the player to catch the pokemon. Here's what i came up with:
A pokemon that has full HP is difficult to catch, and as it gets weaker, it is easier to obtain. Now that is up to the game, to randomly catch the pokemon, and one is pressing buttons, or praying to the game for the pokemon to be catched. Now, how about if it was up to the player to be able to catch the pokemon, and see how difficult it is to do so. The DS has two screens, well the bottom one we see a pokeball once the pokemon is being captured, but wouldn't it be more "broad" to make a mechanism where one takes the stylis (sorry if typo) and is able to make some movement (around the used pokeball) to catch the pokemon, and one has to "follow" the steps in order to catch the pokemon. And of coarse, it is difficult at first, but as one weakens the pokemon, the pokemon will be easier to catch. |
Quote:
Though mechanics wise this would suck ass if you are just killing wild pokemon and it asks all the time, but at the same time if you don't have it activated when you run into something good that would also suck. Unless you can 'activate' it while in battle. May or may not take a turn. Quote:
Speaking of seals, what if there was one that did the same graphic shinys have just to screw with people? xD; To be quite honest, I just like pokeballs that look cool. I'm like that. Luxury Balls are my friends. (Well, for my contest pokemon anyways.) |
mountain ball - X4 chance of catching when encountered in the mountains.
... that's all I got. |
Quote:
|
I don't really mind what balls are introduced into the new games, but it would be nice if they made something that was better than an ultra ball but not as good as a master ball.
|

i wish the people that made pokemon would look at forums like these or make their own so that we can contribute and make cook ideas cuz like some of these pokeballs are really cool!!!!
|
why was my post deleted as spam? i just said i like the random ball idea..
they should make it so we can change the pokeball that a pokemon is alredy in so it can be in a more matching one |
Mexican Ball, the same price of a normal Pokeball but with the catching rate of a Master Ball...gets the work done at a fair price.
jk. |
Quote:
Maybe they could make more habitat Pokeballs. Seeing a meowth in a city and catching it with a city ball would be fun. |
Stick ball- Same as a normal ball, But looks cooler... And its effect..
If its a trainer battle then it can stick to the pokemon thats out and if it faints or retrieved it cant be used again, And if it faints then you get it. In the wild if it fails then it sticks till the pokemon faints and you can capture it Example- You see a shiny pokemon, Get its HP down to yellow and deploy a stick ball, It fails then you KO the shiny and it goes in your PC/Team fainted and have to heal it. Its the same as a premier ball, Except you have to purchase 10 ultra balls at once. Dragon ball- Same as the ultra ball, But its catch rate is slightly higher if its against a legendary. |
Mega Super Hyper Ball 5000 X-TREME: Is an ordinary Pokeball, except the bottom is blue. BLUE!
|
The Slow Ball!!! its for slow pokemon (ex.Slowbro)
|
Quote:

my ideas
miniball:can hold more than 99x of them and work especially well on smaller pokemon
Ancientball: the first pokeball made...no one nows the time it was made but its made from a unatural substance and has better ctach rate than a pokeball protoball:a guy from one of the towns gives it you and he made it himself and entrusted it to you btw i really like the idea of a berryball...finding them then planting one of them and thhen picking again...it would be easy to get pokeballs then though so it should have lower catch rate than a pokeball why its free |
Quote:
On a sorta related but not note, I'd like to actually catch hatched pokemon in a pokeball of my choice. :/ |
I've always had the idea for a Hacker Ball, which would work better on artificial Pokemon like Porygon, Grimer, and Magnemite. I guess the only Legendary this would apply to would be Mewtwo... Maybe the Golem Trio? Deoxys could sort of apply.
|
Moon ball-A ball that was said too come from space.It has a moon design and some people say its the only ball that makes catching any form of dexoys easier.

after 4 generations, still the same exact everything, just new additions like pokemon and items |

not exactly topic related, but heres how i think balls should work.
-when you are ready to throw a ball, you use the touch screen. the pokemon also moves around so you need aim. the lower the hp, slower it is. if parylyzed, it barely even moves, and with red hp, it doesnt move at all. pokemon can still break out, but rates are significantly lowered due to having to use your aim... |
Quote:
Seriously 3D is not BETTER, it is just a style choice! You can have your 3D pokemon on the console games, leave my handhelds alone! Hurr...On topic, we've pretty much already seen in Black and White that only the environments will be 3D. The trainer sprites and pokemon are not, so there is no reason the pokeballs would be. Well, maybe, they would have the trainer throw a 3D pokeball, but I feel in would be out of place as all other battle elements are 2D. |
Quote:
|
Grass Ball
Fire Ball Water Ball Earth Ball or other elements balls for catching certain pokemon types? Dual Ball, after use can be used again? Chill Ball for Ice PKMN Dream Ball for Ghost or Dark? Mega Ball for tall PKMN? |
Sandy Ball. A ball for pokemon found near the see.
Sandy Balls increase the catch rate. |
If anything I don't really care about new types of pokeballs. I wish they would sell them in different colors, though. The seals are a horrible way to customize, and I would much rather have a pokeball that matches my pokemon's color to enhance the aesthetic aspects of its appearance into battle.
|
Well, considering they allowed players to receive various new Pokéballs by giving Apricorns to Kurt in Azelea City, I guess they'll make something like that in the fifth Gen.
|
It seems that everything else in Black and White is going industrial, so why not the Pokeballs? Maybe you can even make your own Pokeballs! Maybbe you have to bring any Pokeball to some Pokeball maker and he can give you the... recipe thingy. I can't think of a word for it.
IndustryBall Effect: Higher CR for Steel, Electric, and Poison-Type (pollutions made by factories.) Pokemon. It would also have a higher CR for man-made Pokemon such as Porygon, Ditto, and Mewtwo. How to obtain: Buy for 500p or make your own. Find in itemball. MegaBall 2k Effect: Higher CR than UltraBall, and the 2k part makes it seem more techy. How to obtain: Sell ten Ultraballs. Store owner can't afford last three, so he/she offers you a MegaBall 2k instead. Make your own. TechBall Effect: Higher CR for Pokemon found in factories (Like how Magnemite was found in the Power Plant in Gen I and FRLG). How to obtain: Found in itemball, like the Masterball(Only one). Make your own. RoboBall Effect: Same CR as great ball, but changes Pokemon's second Type to Steel-Type. How to obtain: Given by a scientist. Only one. Cannot be made. MatchBall Effect: Kinda like LoveBall, but CR is x4 if the Species is different. The gender must be opposites of each other. CR is x8 if species is the same, just like LoveBall. How to obtain: 1 from Rival. Make your own. WarBall Effect: Only captures soldiers from Iraq. Higher CR for Pokemon not found in Isshu(Such as other Islands (ex. Sevii Islands in FRLG)). How to obtain: Sold by a soldier for 300p. Make your own. |
I think the Dark ball that appears in the movie of Celebi (raises all stats to the max)
|
Sleep ball. If the Pokémon you're trying to catch escapes from this ball, they fall asleep.
Parlyz Ball. If the Pokémon you're trying to catch escapes from this ball, they become paralyzed. Remedyball. If a Pokémon is stored in this ball, all status effects are cured when they switch out of battle. Soil Ball. If a grass Pokémon is stored in this ball and NOT currently in battle, they recover a little HP each turn with Rainy Day or Sunny Day in effect. HP gain doubles if Rainy Day and Sunny Day are used after each other. |
Do we even need new balls? I rarely use anything other than the usual Poke/Great/Ultra balls anyways.
|
Dark Ball: Makes the captured Pokemon evil, and raises their power to the highest level.
Well, maybe it shouldn't be that powerful.... but it would be nice if it just made them evil though. |

To stay on topic, here are some more Pokeballs: Remember my idea of making PokeBalls, so you won't think it's been proven that PokeBall making exist. WinterBall Effect: Higher CR for Ice-Type Pokemon. How to Obtain: Found in icy area. Received from a girl named Winter. Make your own. AutumnBall Effect: Higher CR for Grass-Type Pokemon. How to Obtain: Found in leaf-y area. Received from a girl named Autumn. Make your own. SummerBall Effect: Higher CR for Fire-Type Pokemon. How to Obtain: Found at a beach. Received from a girl named Summer. Make your own. SpringBall Effect: Higher CR for Water-Type Pokemon. How to Obtain: Found in a forest/woods. Make your own. Held by wild Spoink. (Spring don't sound like a good name to me.) |
How about actually being able to choose which Pokéballs my Pokémon are in... I'm gonna sount like a nut here, but I like them all to match... which is why I always end up carrying a bag full of regular Pokéballs...
