I like this idea. With the unknown ball there is a higher chance to catch pokémon without genders. It sounds pretty believable to have. XD

What about calling it the Nothing ball, as in non gendered :)

Livewire August 20th, 2010 10:30 PM

How about more Type-based pokeballs? as in a ball for every type?

Flame ball- fire types
Shock ball- electric types
Net- bug/water
dive- water, underwater, etc

What i really want are improved animations on all the pokeballs, like the actual net in a net ball, etc. Or improved seals/ball capsules at least

iNinja August 20th, 2010 11:19 PM

Or how about a pokeball with a color name (like green abll) and it cathes a pokemon of the same color with a higer rate then the rest. Like the "green ball" Catches a green pokemon (ehhh, like politoad even though they aren't wild just an example) at a rate a bit higher than a Ultra ball. How's that?

This would be kinda hard for some people. There are some people that are color blind and some pokemon that look like one color are categorized as a different color.

Or new pokeballs altogether. That'd be cool too. ^_^

I love to be able to make my pokeballs personal kinda like that Ash look a like in the anime put stars on his.

Weak ball:
Works especially well on (wild of course) Pokemon at least 20 levels lower than your Pokemon in battle.

Well that would be level ball, so no need for that.
Id also like to see generation ball, it would be a ball that has higer rates whn trying to catch pokemon from the same gen. Llike G/S ball for g/s/c pokemon, color ball (gen 1 poke), gem ball (gen 3), precious ball (gen 4) and so on, or something like that :)

Zeturic August 21st, 2010 9:15 AM

Pound Ball - Works better on light Pokemon.

Ditto Ball - Works better on Pokemon that share your active Pokemon's type.

Original Ball - Opposite of the Repeat Ball; works better on Pokemon you've not caught yet. (Not the best name...)

Double Ball - Allows Pokemon to be caught in Wild Double Battles without KOing the other Pokemon or Works better on Pokemon during wild double battles.

Journey Ball - At the beginning of the game, it has 0x catch rate. After the first Gym, it has .5x. After the second, 1x. This continues all the way up until after the 8th Gym, when it will have a 4x catch rate.

No. There's both gender unknown and ungendered Pokemon. Magneton is Gender Unkown, as in it has a gender, just not one anyone can identify, though, Entei is genderless as per its legendary status.

Must say, out of all the one's I read, this sounds like the best.

A KO Ball is something that will be a big assistance. Especially when it comes to legendaries, and we have no choice to make it to the last bit of HP and instead, end up having it fainting. n_n
I'd like this, but it would probably be one of those rare pokéballs if they do add something of this in the games.

Very good idea, iNinja, very very good idea

I just noticed that after i posted a good comment about that idea

Exotika August 22nd, 2010 3:49 AM

<My Ideas>
---------------------
Attack Ball-0.5x Rate~
Obtainable-3rd Gym PokeMart.
If fails catching,attacks the pokemon by an effective move.
If succeeds in catching,heals pokemon.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Curse Ball-4x Rate~
Obtainable-Events~
If fails catching,gives the Pokemon a curse (ghost type).
If succeeds in catching,everytime that pokemon dies,it has an aftermath effect.
(High chance there wouldn't be one)
-----------------------------------------------------------
Quote Ball-2x Rate~
Obtainable Ball:8th Gym PokeMart.
If fails catching,the Pokemon can't use a move for 2 turns ( Silenced ).
If succeeds in catching,the Pokemon will have the Soundproof ability with the other ability it has (but it has chance of failing).
-------------------------------------------------------------
Encore Ball-Never fails at catching~
Obtainable from:Events~
When the Pokemon caught by this ball comes out,the Pokemon in battle will be encored after the it uses it's move.
----------------------------------
Smoke Ball-2x Rate~
Obtainable from:6th Gym PokeMart~
If fails catching,the Pokemon's accuracy is lowered.
When entered in battle,the Pokemon thats battling that Pokemon will have its accuracy lowered.
------------------
Web Ball-Never fails at catching~
Obtainable from-Events~
When entered in battle,the Pokemon on the other side speed falls.

haha that is a really good idea, and it would make life easier, i think if they put this in the game it would be kinda expensive though cause that ball would make the game a lot easier, not as easy as the pokeball costing masterballs (<.<;) but somewhat easier nonetheless

Kanto_Johto August 22nd, 2010 2:09 PM

This must be the 8000th time I've said this in about a week.

THE GAMES ARE NOT DESIGNED TO BE A WALK IN THE PARK/MAKE LIFE EASY FOR YOU. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DIFFICULT.

That is why we don't have stuff like the 'Zap Ball' or 'Ball that is the price of a Pokeball but works like a Masterball'.

Christ almighty.

Well I was thinking that the Zap ball should be more expensive Pokeball in the game...plus it doesn't work on Electric types nor Ground types...

PC Ball: When you catch the Pokemon and your party is full, you have the option to swap one of the Pokemon in your party for the Pokemon you just caught; the one you swap out for is placed back in the PC.

That sounds cool :D
Urban ball, makes it easier to capture pokemon in urban settings :)

Ho-Oh August 22nd, 2010 4:26 PM

Kanto_Johto, calm down. These are just suggestions, most of the balls probably won't ever be real.

Though I agree about the price of the pokeball one being unrealistic though :x

I kinda don't want capturing legendaries to be easier. So.. I can't say I'm for that kind of Pokeball.
It's redundant to spend 15 mins trying to catch one after a while yes, but it fits them.

Legendaries are rare and powerful, they shouldn't be anywhere near easy to catch. </3
