The Prison Bottle (Japanese: いましめのツボ Jar of Binding) is a key item used to transform Hoopa between its Confined and Unbound forms. It can be obtained by walking into a Poké Mart in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire with Hoopa in the player's party.

In the games

In the core series games

Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the Prison Bottle can be obtained through having Hoopa in the party and entering a Poké Mart. A new clerk will show up near the counter at the far left side. If the player interacts with this clerk, the game transitions to another view as the clerk tells the player a story.

After his story, he will give the player the Prison Bottle.

Story of the clerk
"Hey, do you have a minute for a story? This is something that happened when I was watching the store one time... It was, like, a totally dark night. Moonless. And I was all, "No way! This is so-o-o-o creepy!" Then, suddenly—whoosh! Out of nowhere, the automatic sliding door...slides open. And then this super-duper-scary old guy comes in, kinda unsteady, you know? Kinda shambling... So I'm thinking how terrible and scary is this, and then the old guy shuffles over to me... He has a package, like, clutched in his hands... He's mumbling that he has to show it to me... Then he asks, "Do you know what this is worth?" He keeps staring right at me and not even blinking. I was so freaked out. I was, like... "Oh yes. It's, uh, really something, isn't it?" So the old guy grins at me, and he says... "Then I'll just give you this instead of money. Now give me everything you've got in this store!" That's what he said! Really! I was like, "What is this? Too weird, my dude!" But I was scared, so I started shoveling over Potions and, like, whatever I could reach. I gave the dude everything for his stupid package. And out he goes, like, with a wicked grin on his face... As he's walking out, he says, "Three days... For a mere three days will Hoopa be unbound..." Really! I was all, "Stop freaking me out with this nonsense!" I was, like, sweating. The back of my shirt was soaked. Anyway, nothing I could do, so I open the package. It's just a dirty old bottle. Li-i-i-i-ike, really. So I go, "Weirdness. Wonder what's in it." I grab the stopper and carefully pull it loose. Blapt! It popped open, but there was nothing inside! So I figure I totally got fooled. ...Thanks for listening to my story. Know what? I'm gonna give you the bottle from that night 'cause you're so nice. It's not doing me any good anyway. Really."
"Sometimes I wonder if it really is only a dirty old bottle. Those last words that the old guy said as he left... "For a mere three days will Hoopa be unbound..." Just can't seem to get that out of my head..."
"Oh... You're that kid from that time... What did you end up doing with that old bottle? Though...I guess it doesn't matter anymore. Really. It's just, even now, it's still bugging me, you know? "For a mere three days will Hoopa be unbound..." That's what he said. I just can't seem to forget it..."

Flavor text

Games Description
A bottle believed to have been used to seal away the power of a certain Pokémon long, long ago.

In the anime

The Prison Bottle in the anime

The Prison Bottle appeared with a pivotal role in Hoopa and the Clash of Ages. One hundred years prior to the events of the film, Hoopa's Unbound power caused a great calamity in Désert City until a mysterious man known only as The Traveler used the Prison Bottle to seal that power away. In the present, the Prison Bottle is discovered in the desert by Barza, causing a great evil energy to flow out of it and restart the disaster by summoning multiple Legendary Pokémon.

Trivia

  • While the Prison Bottle is required to obtain Hoopa's Unbound Forme, the opposite is not true. Hoopa returns to its Confined Form if three days have passed after using the Prison Bottle or if it is deposited in the PC.
