The GS Ball is a special and mysterious Poké Ball. It is colored gold and silver and has the letters "GS" inscribed upon it. GS may stand for Gold and Silver, as those were the original Game Boy games that took place in the Johto Region before Crystal version, the version that introduced GS Ball.
In the anime
In the anime, Professor Ivy was the first character to possess the GS Ball. She called upon the help of Professor Oak to study it, but couldn't figure out how to open it or transmit it via PC. Professor Oak asked Ash to go to the Orange Archipelago and get it from Professor Ivy. This prompted Ash's participation in the Orange League.
When Professor Oak couldn't do anything with it, Ash was once again asked to deliver it to Kurt, a Poké Ball researcher and manufacturer living in Johto's Azalea Town. It still resides there to this day, and its purpose is, as of 2007, unknown.
In Pokémon Crystal
In the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal, players could use the Pokémon Mobile System to gain a GS Ball that they could take to Ilex Forest. Using it at the forest's shrine would prompt an encounter where a wild Celebi could be captured. However, no equivalent event was ever offered to players of the English version of the game. Some game-enhancing devices, however, such as the GameShark, can be used to generate the GS ball right in the player's bag in both languages, however, if the code is incorrectly entered, it may come out as a Tira-misu.
In the Pokémon Special manga
According to the Pokémon Special manga, the GS Ball was created by the Mask of Ice from the feathers of Lugia and Ho-Oh to capture Celebi. Only the feathers of the two Legendary Pokémon could contain Celebi, and prevent their holder from suffering the ill effects of time travel. Gold was able to use his Pichu to destroy it and set Celebi free.
