So why won&#039;t my rival battle me? I already battled Volkner and Roark while they were in the cafe and their was no one else. So I went outside to start a bettle with Pearl but he just starts talking about trainers and Pokemon making him smile or something like that. What&#039;s going on? Shouldn&#039;t he being trying to kick my butt? I need some clarification.[[User:Zabbethx|Zabbethx]] 14:54, 25 April 2009 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:It&#039;s Platinum&#039;s broken PRNG (pseudo-random number generator). Occasionally the game fails to reset any events each day and you end up being unable to obtain a berry from the Berry master, battle new gym leaders, etc. It&#039;s normal. &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;border: 1px solid&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[User:PH1RESTRIKE|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background:Blue; color:#78C850&amp;quot;&amp;gt; |3urn &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[Special:contributions/PH1RESTRIKE|•]][[User talk:PH1RESTRIKE|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background:#FFFFFF; color:Green&amp;quot;&amp;gt;57R1K3&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; 15:05, 25 April 2009 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

:You&#039;ll probably be able to battle him tomorrow. Whenever this case occurs, expect it to be fixed the next day. It normally happens at least once-twice per week, none if you&#039;re lucky. &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;border: 1px solid&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[User:PH1RESTRIKE|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background:Blue; color:#78C850&amp;quot;&amp;gt; |3urn &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[Special:contributions/PH1RESTRIKE|•]][[User talk:PH1RESTRIKE|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;background:#FFFFFF; color:Green&amp;quot;&amp;gt;57R1K3&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; 15:12, 25 April 2009 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First I&#039;d like to say thanks for the help. Second I&#039;d like to say that the error was actually on my part. Turns out I accidently set my DSi&#039;s date to 2008 when I first got it and all the days were off. Althogh I do think I was still a victim of that PRNG you were talking about, as my DSi thought Saturday was Friday but Drifloon never showed up at the Valley Windworks.[[User:Zabbethx|Zabbethx]] 15:11, 27 April 2009 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

In the article, it mentions that Barry gets stronger through the different &amp;quot;phases&amp;quot; of the game.  I was wondering what those phases were and how to trigger the change in phases because on my game I&#039;ve played about 200 hours but according to the article, my Barry is still in phase one.

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Just wondering where Abra and Phanpy are coming from, as [http://pokefor.greenchu.de/meowth346/gbc/poke-balls/ Pokémon Forever states] &amp;quot;If the wild Pokémon is Magnemite, Grimer, Tangela, Mr.Mime, Eevee, Porygon, Dratini, or Dragonair, then Catch Rate = Catch Rate * 4.0. Please note that while these Pokémon have a greater chance to catch, not all of them can be found in the wild.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Jshadias|Jshadias]] 09:53, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m curious, too.  I see various sites that say things like &amp;quot;Pokemon who can run away, like Teddiursa, Tangela, or Raikou&amp;quot;, but the game stores a list of Pokemon whom the ball works better on, and that&#039;s what I used on PokéFor. --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]] 21:09, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In that case, somebody remove the two offending, untrue Pogeys?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And Abra really shouldn&#039;t be on that list, as it uses Teleport; it doesn&#039;t actually run away... [[User:Evkl|Evkl]] 21:45, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
Teleport counts, though.  The quick ball worked on Abra.[[User:Nintendofan146B|Nintendofan146B]] 20:17, 12 October 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Should Anime-only Balls be included in this? I&#039;m thinking of the Dark Balls and whatever it was that Sammy used from movie 4--BJG&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There was the Dark Ball and the GS Ball.  That&#039;s all there have been.  I think they would make a useful addition, though. [[User:Fabu-Vinny|Fabu-Vinny]] 19:22, 23 May 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Hyper Ball in manga ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do you think it&#039;s worth mentioning in the &amp;quot;in the manga&amp;quot; section about the existance of the Hyper Ball? Ash attempts to use it in the EToP manga at the end of issue 4, and is apparently very expensive. [[User:Fsilone|Fsilone]] 02:48, 21 December 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Happiness Balls ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shouldn&#039;t there be a note about the increased Happiness rating that Luxury Balls and Friend Balls produce on captured Pokemon?  Or is that just a myth that has no bearing on the game data?&lt;br /&gt;

== Main Picture ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Is an SSBM trophy really appropriate for the main picture on this article? I think it should be a plain Pokéball without the trophy base at the bottom - [[User:MTC|MTC]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it looks a lot better, just a sharper image if you know what I mean.  And it doesn&#039;t matter the source, a Poké Ball is a Poké Ball. [[User:Evkl|evkl]] 19:25, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think the Same as MTC. It could be the picture of a Poké ball that is in the first opening possibly. [[user:David aipom|David aipom]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As long as the picture illustrates on how the ball looks like in the anime and games (which it does), the it is acceptable. - [[User:Vhayes1992|Vhayes1992]] 18:17, 22 August 2009 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Team Rocket Balls... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I clearly remember seeing black balls thrown by the head of Team Rocket in &amp;amp;quot;Mewtwo&#039;s Return&amp;amp;quot; feature length episode. Now it&#039;s a bit sad since I juest returned the darn video to the rental store and check on this which I saw just moments ago! From my poor memeory I think they were just black pokeballs with the typicial Team Rocket red R instead of red dot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They were used to capture the running pokemon (Meoth, Pikachu and the cloned pokemons), though Mewtwo used it&#039;s psychich powers to release them, making them somewhat uninteresting...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, I think you&#039;re thinking of the PokéBalls being thrown by the Team Rocket grunts at the herd of Tauros that Mewtwo was lifting with Psychic.[[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] 02:00, 19 October 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Ball Images ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The large images are nice, I admit, but perhaps using sprites would make the tables look neater and, by having ones for the Safari, Ultra and Master Balls, more complete?  Given time, I could even make modifications of the sprites for the Generation II Balls.  --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 20:08, 11 June 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Replacing Images ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think that the current images for Hoenn Balls and Poke and Great Ball are nice. I think they&#039;re ugly imitations of Sugimori Artwork. I have a Sugimori Artworks for almost all PokeBalls (the Johto ones are bad-qualited, though) and I think they&#039;re much better. I think we should replace the current images with the Sugimori&#039;s ones.&lt;br /&gt;
:I dunno, I don&#039;t think the current ones look bad at all - just big, given how much they stretch the rows of the table.  And how bad quality are you talking for the Johto ones?  Call me a sprite fanatic, but I think the third generation item sprites would look best in the tables.  The second generation ones would be missing, but, as I said, I could make some custom ones.  Also, I&#039;m not particularly fond of the anime Pokéball image, since it&#039;s so heavily pixelated... --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 01:36, 19 June 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Actually... now that I think of it, perhaps both of our concerns can be dealt with more easily than I thought.  Hold on just a little bit... --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 18:50, 20 June 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== One big vs. many small ==&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been talking with TTE.  The idea of breaking some of the meat of this article up still bugs me on some level, but... well, might as well bring the idea to everyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The idea, basically, is to start having articles for groups of items as well as individual.  This one, for example, would be moved to &amp;quot;Ball&amp;quot;, and the lower section would link to the different articles on individual item types.  If we do this for this one, we do it for all item groups...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thoughts?  --[[User:Pie|Pie]] &amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]]&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; 02:58, 16 April 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

What is the increase of efficiency for a dive ball when you are capturing a water/bug hybrid?&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s the Net Ball that raises the multiplier for Water or Bug Pokémon. Dive Ball in Gen III works better on Pokémon underwater, and in Gen IV works better on Pokémon you encounter while Surfing. Anyway, I think it doesn&#039;t stack, but I dunno. If it doesn&#039;t stack, it&#039;s as listed, but if it does, it&#039;s 9x. &#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:TTEchidna|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#FF0000;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;T&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:TTEchidna|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#FF0000;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;T&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[wp:Echidna|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#FF0000;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;E&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#0000FF;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;chidna&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&#039;&#039;&#039; 00:19, 21 August 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Sir Aaron&#039;s Staff and the passage of time within the ball. ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Should Sir Aaron&#039;s Staff be considered a pre-pokéball object as well? Also, should it be noted about how time passes for pokémon contained within pokéballs? There have been a few instances where pokémon have spent of years, centuries even, within a pokéball/pokéball like object and not aging or feeling any sort of passage of time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think so, it is a method of capturing a Pokémon. &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;[[Image:Ani137MS.gif]]&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[User:Tesh|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#F05030;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;TESH&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;[[Image:Ani233MS.gif]]&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[User Talk:Tesh|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#5C8CFA;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;TALK&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; [[Image:Ani474MS.gif]]&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[User:Tesh/Other|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#EEC226;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;FUN&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; 16:41, 15 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is my fist post (or edit, I&#039;m new)&lt;br /&gt;
The passage of time seems to vary between pokéball and pokéball like objects, when in pokéballs, pokémon seem to be conscious (as trainers give commands before releasing them) but don&#039;t physically age, but in some other pokéball like object, time passes as if there sleeping while there in the object. amaster6000 11:12, 17 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:There is obviously very little passage of time in Aaron&#039;s staff; long enough for Lucario to stew in his rage, but quick enough apparently for him to still be blind. Also remember that most of those centuries-old Pokémon are usually special specimens--often a Psychic-type or something like [[Lokoko]].--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;•&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 14:58, 17 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

:::Reviving something old here, but really. The Master Ball is an important part of the game, just because we list where you can obtain one doesn&#039;t make us a &amp;quot;strategy guide&amp;quot;, in my opinion it makes us more like an encyclopedia as an encyclopedia tries to have &#039;&#039;&#039;all&#039;&#039;&#039; the information on something, including the locations of things.

== Opponent&#039;s only keep Pokémon in Poké Balls? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;In the games, all opponents keep their Pokémon in Poké Balls. The reason for this is unknown.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whoever put this up, what is this supposed to mean? If you mean they always keep them in Balls, then it&#039;s false, because there are countless trainers in-game that let their Pokémon wander around, and in Colosseum and XD you can even battle them, but they&#039;ll go back into their Ball pre-battle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I interpreted as the type of Ball, since it&#039;s true all opponents keep them in Poké Balls, not Ultra Balls or whatever, but since there&#039;s contention, I think some real clarification would be nice. [[User:Dragoness|Dragoness]] 04:39, 27 December 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I sure of seen some other ball somewhere, but thats besides the point. I interpreted it as in the case of Ash&#039;s Pikachu, not being in the pokeball, but battling in the anime, while the jigglypuff in yellow version and a machop in gold couldnt battle, but you could see the walking around[[User:DCM|&amp;lt;font color=&amp;quot;#FF1111&amp;quot;&amp;gt;DCM&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[User talk:DCM|((&amp;lt;font color=&amp;quot;#DAA520&amp;quot;&amp;gt;曲奇饼妖怪&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[Special:Contributions/DCM|&amp;lt;font color=&amp;quot;#C0C0C0&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Spy on My Edits&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;))]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

::::Yes, Greevil clearly commanded it to attack and it did, not to mention you had to use a Snag Ball to catch it, not a regular Ball like the wild Pokémon. There are other examples in that game. In Phenac, a Peon is talking to his Absol before you battle him, and he uses the Absol in battle. In Agate Village, there is an old woman standing with a Mightyena and if you choose to battle her, she uses the Mightyena. Eagun also keeps his Pikachu out but still uses it to battle.

:: You&#039;re all missing the point, I think that who first posted this was trying to say that when you battle another trainer they always send out their Pokémon in normal Poké Balls, you know, because I&#039;ve never seen an in-game opponent sending out any Pokémon in a, say, Master Ball. However, why is this important, I mean, yeah it&#039;s true, but I don&#039;t think is something we should see in the article, or is it important?

Half the anime pokeballs are actully just customized pokeballs painted to look unique, namely the Lake Ball, Chansey ball, Green Pokeball and Rocket Ball. The game series also suggest that custom poke balls exist in this manner; when you deliver Oak&#039;s Parcel he states it&#039;s a custom ordered Poke Ball. By listeing these under the heading &amp;quot;Customized Pokeballs&amp;quot; we can save some space.--[[User:Lego3400|Lego3400]] 23:49, 2 June 2009 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

So the heavy ball takes 30 away from the catch rate if the pokemon is under 100kg, what if a pokemon already has a catch rate lower than 30 and is under 100kg? ie the [[lake trio]] and [[cresselia]], would their catch rate be a negative value?

== The Safari and Park Balls ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I&#039;m a bit confused here. In every generation there have been Safari Balls or Park Balls, yet we only have three images for Safari/Park Balls and no mention of their different appearances. There should exist:&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 1: Safari Balls (no sprites exist but should have official artwork);&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 2: Park Balls (GSC);&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 3: Safari Balls (for Emerald and FRLG);&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 4: Park Balls (DPP)*, Safari Balls (DP&amp;amp;P)*, Compé Balls (HGSS)*, plus possibly HGSS Safari Balls. (*We have these.)&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d personally like to see a note on the page mentioning that there have been several different forms for Safari Ball, with pics if possible. (I seem to remember that Gen. 1 Safari Balls were green with a black &amp;quot;S&amp;quot; on them and that Gen. 3 had spikey orange designs on lime green.)&lt;br /&gt;
Also, this might help when looking for refs... and inconsistencies: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Safari_ball_issues.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Norle|Norle]]&lt;br /&gt;
:Um... we don&#039;t need Gen I ones, because it&#039;s stricly game sprites only. I have emerald, but need help getting screenshots. I COULD ALSO PROVE THE CELEBI GLITCH WITH SCREENSHOTS! [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 17:25, 2 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Lucian&#039;s Comments ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well I was playing my Pokemon Platinum game one day and I saw Lucian in the Canalave Library, which surprised me.  He told me that Pokemon instinctively curl into a ball to recuperate and that is why they&#039;ll be caught by a Pokeball.  Unfortunately, I don&#039;t have his exact words.  This event happened on a Thursday between 5 and 6pm and I had already beaten the Elite Four once. I didn&#039;t see anything about what he said on the Pokeball page and I didn&#039;t know if anyone else here has gotten to talk to Lucian at the library. It was interesting information but I didn&#039;t know if that should be added to the page or not.--[[User:Kitty|Kitty]] 20:50, 6 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;Just wondering where Abra and Phanpy are coming from, as [http://pokefor.greenchu.de/meowth346/gbc/poke-balls/ Pokémon Forever states] &amp;quot;If the wild Pokémon is Magnemite, Grimer, Tangela, Mr.Mime, Eevee, Porygon, Dratini, or Dragonair, then Catch Rate = Catch Rate * 4.0. Please note that while these Pokémon have a greater chance to catch, not all of them can be found in the wild.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Jshadias|Jshadias]] 09:53, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m curious, too.  I see various sites that say things like &amp;quot;Pokemon who can run away, like Teddiursa, Tangela, or Raikou&amp;quot;, but the game stores a list of Pokemon whom the ball works better on, and that&#039;s what I used on PokéFor. --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]] 21:09, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

In that case, somebody remove the two offending, untrue Pogeys?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And Abra really shouldn&#039;t be on that list, as it uses Teleport; it doesn&#039;t actually run away... [[User:Evkl|Evkl]] 21:45, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Happiness Balls ==&lt;br /&gt;

Is an SSBM trophy really appropriate for the main picture on this article? I think it should be a plain Pokéball without the trophy base at the bottom - [[User:MTC|MTC]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it looks a lot better, just a sharper image if you know what I mean.  And it doesn&#039;t matter the source, a Poké Ball is a Poké Ball. [[User:Evkl|evkl]] 19:25, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

I think the Same as MTC. It could be the picture of a Poké ball that is in the first opening possibly. [[user:David aipom|David aipom]]&lt;br /&gt;

== Team Rocket Balls... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I clearly remember seeing black balls thrown by the head of Team Rocket in &amp;amp;quot;Mewtwo&#039;s Return&amp;amp;quot; feature length episode. Now it&#039;s a bit sad since I juest returned the darn video to the rental store and check on this which I saw just moments ago! From my poor memeory I think they were just black pokeballs with the typicial Team Rocket red R instead of red dot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They were used to capture the running pokemon (Meoth, Pikachu and the cloned pokemons), though Mewtwo used it&#039;s psychich powers to release them, making them somewhat uninteresting...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, I think you&#039;re thinking of the PokéBalls being thrown by the Team Rocket grunts at the herd of Tauros that Mewtwo was lifting with Psychic.[[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] 02:00, 19 October 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Ball Images ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The large images are nice, I admit, but perhaps using sprites would make the tables look neater and, by having ones for the Safari, Ultra and Master Balls, more complete?  Given time, I could even make modifications of the sprites for the Generation II Balls.  --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 20:08, 11 June 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Replacing Images ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think that the current images for Hoenn Balls and Poke and Great Ball are nice. I think they&#039;re ugly imitations of Sugimori Artwork. I have a Sugimori Artworks for almost all PokeBalls (the Johto ones are bad-qualited, though) and I think they&#039;re much better. I think we should replace the current images with the Sugimori&#039;s ones.&lt;br /&gt;
:I dunno, I don&#039;t think the current ones look bad at all - just big, given how much they stretch the rows of the table.  And how bad quality are you talking for the Johto ones?  Call me a sprite fanatic, but I think the third generation item sprites would look best in the tables.  The second generation ones would be missing, but, as I said, I could make some custom ones.  Also, I&#039;m not particularly fond of the anime Pokéball image, since it&#039;s so heavily pixelated... --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 01:36, 19 June 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== One big vs. many small ==&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been talking with TTE.  The idea of breaking some of the meat of this article up still bugs me on some level, but... well, might as well bring the idea to everyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The idea, basically, is to start having articles for groups of items as well as individual.  This one, for example, would be moved to &amp;quot;Ball&amp;quot;, and the lower section would link to the different articles on individual item types.  If we do this for this one, we do it for all item groups...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:I think it&#039;d be a good idea. After all, we have separate articles for every berry, why shouldn&#039;t we for Poké Balls and held items as well? Then, we could categorize them better, without having a gigantic page (which is what the page on [[held items]] is quickly becoming...).&lt;br /&gt;

What is the increase of efficiency for a dive ball when you are capturing a water/bug hybrid?&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s the Net Ball that raises the multiplier for Water or Bug Pokémon. Dive Ball in Gen III works better on Pokémon underwater, and in Gen IV works better on Pokémon you encounter while Surfing. Anyway, I think it doesn&#039;t stack, but I dunno. If it doesn&#039;t stack, it&#039;s as listed, but if it does, it&#039;s 9x. &#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:TTEchidna|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#FF0000;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;T&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:TTEchidna|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#FF0000;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;T&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[wp:Echidna|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#FF0000;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;E&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#0000FF;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;chidna&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&#039;&#039;&#039; 00:19, 21 August 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Sir Aaron&#039;s Staff and the passage of time within the ball. ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Should Sir Aaron&#039;s Staff be considered a pre-pokéball object as well? Also, should it be noted about how time passes for pokémon contained within pokéballs? There have been a few instances where pokémon have spent of years, centuries even, within a pokéball/pokéball like object and not aging or feeling any sort of passage of time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think so, it is a method of capturing a Pokémon. &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;[[Image:Ani137MS.gif]]&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[User:Tesh|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#F05030;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;TESH&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;[[Image:Ani233MS.gif]]&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[User Talk:Tesh|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#5C8CFA;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;TALK&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; [[Image:Ani474MS.gif]]&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;[[User:Tesh/Other|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:#EEC226;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;FUN&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]]&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; 16:41, 15 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is my fist post (or edit, I&#039;m new)&lt;br /&gt;
The passage of time seems to vary between pokéball and pokéball like objects, when in pokéballs, pokémon seem to be conscious (as trainers give commands before releasing them) but don&#039;t physically age, but in some other pokéball like object, time passes as if there sleeping while there in the object. amaster6000 11:12, 17 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:There is obviously very little passage of time in Aaron&#039;s staff; long enough for Lucario to stew in his rage, but quick enough apparently for him to still be blind. Also remember that most of those centuries-old Pokémon are usually special specimens--often a Psychic-type or something like [[Lokoko]].--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;•&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 14:58, 17 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Origin of the Concept? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;In the series, Ultraseven, when unable to fight (usually because his Ultra Eye has been stolen), Dan will often produce a small capsule that releases a giant-sized monster to fight in his place.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now I&#039;m not sure if this is true or not, but I believe the concept of &amp;quot;Keeping Pokémon inside Pokéballs&amp;quot; originated from Ultraseven. --[[User:Arima|Arima]] 00:52, 13 November 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;quot;Originate&amp;quot; seems to strong a word. Inspired by, possibly. Worth a mention on the page, maybe. State as fact a connection that&#039;s at best speculation, unless we hear that Satoshi Tajiri said something in an interview confirming that Ultraseven is where he got the concept...not such a good idea.

== Opponent&#039;s only keep Pokémon in Poké Balls? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;In the games, all opponents keep their Pokémon in Poké Balls. The reason for this is unknown.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whoever put this up, what is this supposed to mean? If you mean they always keep them in Balls, then it&#039;s false, because there are countless trainers in-game that let their Pokémon wander around, and in Colosseum and XD you can even battle them, but they&#039;ll go back into their Ball pre-battle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I interpreted as the type of Ball, since it&#039;s true all opponents keep them in Poké Balls, not Ultra Balls or whatever, but since there&#039;s contention, I think some real clarification would be nice. [[User:Dragoness|Dragoness]] 04:39, 27 December 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I sure of seen some other ball somewhere, but thats besides the point.

In Phenac, a Peon is talking to his Absol before you battle him, and he uses the Absol in battle. In Agate Village, there is an old woman standing with a Mightyena and if you choose to battle her, she uses the Mightyena. Eagun also keeps his Pikachu out but still uses it to battle.

So I&#039;m a bit confused here. In every generation there have been Safari Balls or Park Balls, yet we only have three images for Safari/Park Balls and no mention of their different appearances. There should exist:&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 1: Safari Balls (no sprites exist but should have official artwork);&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 2: Park Balls (GSC);&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 3: Safari Balls (for Emerald and FRLG);&lt;br /&gt;
Gen. 4: Park Balls (DPP)*, Safari Balls (DP&amp;amp;P)*, Compé Balls (HGSS)*, plus possibly HGSS Safari Balls. (*We have these.)&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d personally like to see a note on the page mentioning that there have been several different forms for Safari Ball, with pics if possible. (I seem to remember that Gen. 1 Safari Balls were green with a black &amp;quot;S&amp;quot; on them and that Gen. 3 had spikey orange designs on lime green.)&lt;br /&gt;
Also, this might help when looking for refs... and inconsistencies: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Safari_ball_issues.jpg&lt;br /&gt;

:Um... we don&#039;t need Gen I ones, because it&#039;s stricly game sprites only. I have emerald, but need help getting screenshots. I COULD ALSO PROVE THE CELEBI GLITCH WITH SCREENSHOTS! [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 17:25, 2 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Norle has some very good points. Unfortunently this is the Pokémon fandom, where good points are ignored and wild speculation is ripe. These variations on the Safari Balls sound interesting. [[User:Me, Hurray!|Me, Hurray!]] 15:01, 3 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Lucian&#039;s Comments ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well I was playing my Pokemon Platinum game one day and I saw Lucian in the Canalave Library, which surprised me.  He told me that Pokemon instinctively curl into a ball to recuperate and that is why they&#039;ll be caught by a Pokeball.  Unfortunately, I don&#039;t have his exact words.  This event happened on a Thursday between 5 and 6pm and I had already beaten the Elite Four once. I didn&#039;t see anything about what he said on the Pokeball page and I didn&#039;t know if anyone else here has gotten to talk to Lucian at the library. It was interesting information but I didn&#039;t know if that should be added to the page or not.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
