Pokémon Legends: Arceus is finally out, and trainers are able to venture into the ancient Hisui region and befriend Pokémon with the help of Poké Balls. While Poké Balls have been one of the most important aspects of the Pokémon franchise since its inception, they had only just been invented before the events of Pokémon Legends: Arceus in the Pokémon universe, making them a novel tool for the Galaxy Expedition Team’s adventures and missions. While some of the Poké Balls available in the revolutionary new Pokémon game are familiar classics from the franchise, like standard Poké Balls and Great Balls, others are unique to Pokémon Legends: Arceus and are designed to complement the game’s exciting new mechanics.
Fans have had theories about what's really inside a Poké Ball since the earliest days of the franchise, but Pokémon Legends: Arceus finally provides somewhat of an explanation about how the strange devices actually work. After Professor Laventon shows players how to use a Poké Ball, he quickly realizes that the player character isn’t familiar with these new inventions and explains that Pokémon have the ability to shrink themselves to minuscule sizes. Throwing a Poké Ball at a Pokémon can trigger their shrinking ability, and while his explanation may leave players with more questions about this strange ability than they had before, it does provide an official answer to the age-old question about how Poké Balls capture and store Pokémon in the franchise.
