Trivia

  • The pattern on Ultra Ball's yellow bands is a traditional Japanese pattern called seigaiha.
  • In both Pokémon Legends: Arceus and Pokémon HOME, the summary sprites for the Hisuian Ultra Ball erroneously appear to have a wooden bottom half, (matching the Hisuian variations of Poké and Great Balls), despite it appearing to have a stone bottom half in official artwork, as well as the in-game model in Legends: Arceus.
