What do you think is in the GS ball?

Hmmm.... the GS ball. It's probably some rare Pokemon, like a legendary or something similar. The writers ditched the whole thing plot a while ago, so I guess we'll never know.
 
why did they magnify the GS ball (and Ho-oh) so much if they never came back to it? I always thought Ash was going to use it to catch either Lugia or Ho-oh. The 2nd movie debunked the Lugia part, but Ho-oh is still a mystery if they'll ever get back to that.
 
It was probably representative of everything gold and silver stood for.

There are no orange islands in the game right? So, the whirl islands could've representated that... which would be where the Silver/Lugia part of the representation came from. Orange, which is colour less oftenly used could represent the various colours and races in this world, and a rainbow (or orange could just be gold, too.) That's where the whole rainbow/gold/Ho-Oh part would come in.

But, then there was Brock's thing with... Prof. Ivy? (Not sure about the name) Which could've represented the contrast between two different backgrounds, professor and breeder... such as a mixing of different races.

In the end, I think the GS ball represents what the writers want to be, cultural diversity within a nation (being the Pokémon world.)

Not quite. Don't forget those three episodes with the baby lugia. they could've caught it or it's mom, they were just not smart enough to.

again, not quite. the whirl islands tie into the aforementioned baby lugia episodes.

other than that. that's a pretty nice idea.
 
i agree withe oni raichu.... all of it

Ever since hearing ash say he felt it move/alive, my bet has been Ho-oh, though My memory is hasty either he said that at all.
 
I honestly think it was a filler.
When I was 9, when the G/S show came out, I thought it was a Celebii.

But, if you notice:
G and S stand for Gold and Silver, the colors of the ball

So it was probably just a filler, or a reminder that it was the johto season.

OR, during the time this show was out, pokemon had began to become less popular, and they may have added the GS ball to have some plot supporter to keep people watching to find out what was in it. Therefor, having the show get more views.

But in the japanese Crystal version, it is said that you can get the GS ball, and when you do, you can place it in the shrine in the Ilex Forest, and you can encounter Celebi.

But who knows..
 
maybe it's missingno!!!!

or maybe not...
 
A peanut butter and jelly sandwhich.

No lie. I bet there's one in there.

Oh yeah. I read about that...

Better yet, Bill Cosby's rap album is in the GS Ball.
 
Oh I wonder, wonder what's in the wonderball..

Personally, I found the whole GS ball thing totally pointless, even when I was younger.
I also never knew what was inside, if anything, because I didn't watch much of Johto.
 
I think it was just i filler to attract Celebi when put in the hole of Illex's shrine for the game. As for the anime... well did Ash ever go to Illex forest to it?

IIRC no. In the end he just dropped it off with one of the Prof. and that was the end of that tale.
 
Oni Rai, what right do you have to call people n00bs? >_>

Anyways...

I believe that Arceus created his son, Jeceus, in that ball, but then realized the ball was made completely of stone, therefore crushing his five-minute old son to death. Arceus, enraged, threw the GS ball into a concrete wall. It broke in half, revealing not Arceus's dead son, but, as SilverSmeargle predicted, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. This pleased Arceus and he repaired the ball, replacing the top half with gold as he happily munched on his peanut butter jelly sandwich.

Good times.
 
the answer is... we! we are inside the ball. the ball we see in the anime is just a smaller version of the ball we are inside. inside the ball in the anime, exactly the same: our world. and another smaller ball. and this keeps going forever, until it becomes to boring for the one whos creating our world story, so he will just put a peanut butter and jelly sandwich inside it...
ok, for real, then the GS ball is where all dreams are in. when its opened, the dreams come true. why is it locked? because the person who did it was having a nightmare :p
 
SkittyLover, does that mean that Arceus's five minute year old son and a peanut butter jelly sandwich are in there? Sweet

bruom, that's like an infinite paradox that would make Psyduck's confusion the strongest attack in the world
 
other possibilities

actually the G/S/C gameboy games, celibi was possible to get but only with a gameshark though. remember the shrine in ilex forest? well onnce u use gameshark to get the GS ball then go to the shrine, battle it and try to catch, imnot sure if u catch with the actual GS ball though. SInce the GS ball probably means gold and silver it will be celibi or some new pokemon that they say it will now be a johto pokemon.

no sinnoh, hoen, or past that pokemon ooookkk. ok. now what about another possibility. A human. i mean hav u ever thought that it was to seal someone evil like in battle frontier?

otherwise it was a filler.
