Hi there! If you like pokemon, then perhaps you may be interested in joining our group?sonicpokemonanimals.deviantartβ¦

I think what you mean to say is "Oh! Pokeballs! Just what I needed!"

I just recently discovered a pretty dark fan theory about items that are in the pokeballs... how it was trainers who died and the pokemon with it's held item was left behind. over time the pokemon died and the item you find inside is actually that hold item :c

It could also explain why you can't use the pokeball cuz in data it's already "in use"

Wouldn't it be simpler to just say that the item itself was dropped or dicarded, and that the games only display pokeballs for simlicity or something?

ofc that's what really is the case, but theories or headcanons like this is funnier xD

Ha ha... Some people can't beyond short term benefits.

In the games, every single item appears as a pokeball during gameplay. Therefore, it's assumed that the item is contained within the pokeball, yet you don't get the pokeball that it's contained in.

That's somethings that always bothered me XD I'm really liking these so far

Wondered why items could be held in pokeballs. Then I played Colliseum. At least there they were boxes painted like pokeballs.

I've always wondered what the player does with the ball after he gets the item...

That thought never failed to cross mind.
" SWEET MAMA I FOUND AN ANTIDOTE! I'll just toss this useless Pokeball that was carrying it aside now. "

I can't help thinking now how great it would be if you found pokemon in those Random discard pokeballs!

That would be awesome!

Game: "You found a Mew!"
Me: "SWEEEEETTTT!!!!!"

I think what happens is that when you find a PokΓ©Ball on the ground like that, the PokΓ©Ball itself is the item - empty inside.
At least, that's how I see it.
Doesn't explain the other items though...

Imagine that was a normal pokeball... with a Voltorb in it... how redundant would THAT be? XD

I've always wondered how all this stuff comes out of a Pokeball.

irony is the best word used here. the only problem is, of course, that I don't know what it means. though maybe I just figured it out

I've always wondered about that

Silly rabbit, item capsules aren't pokeballs! They just look exactly the same and also have presumably unlimited storage capacity despite only ever holding one item.

I always wondered what happened to the dozens of pokeballs you used that fail to catch a legendary... do they just pile up on the side?
π: 0 β©: 2
Then a pile of pokebits? They have to go somehwere...right? :C

I guess. It's a pity that the Itemfinder is completely useless in that regard.

It would be nice if every time you found an item, you got a PokeBall too! *BONUS* At least Pokemon Colosseum and Pokemon XD made sense in the fact that they were chests that LOOKED like PokeBalls.

I've been playing Pokemon for over 10 years now and this thought never, ever occurred to me. EVER!

i thought of it first time i saw it

I always thought that was dumb, lol. I liked the change in PokΓ©mon Colosseum though; they were changed to little PokΓ©ball-coloured chests/boxes instead.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who's thought of that. It always confused me as a newb: "Oh, hey! A pokeball!" *gets a potion* "Wait... what?"
What has been seen can't be unseen...

I always thought if you found a Pokeball it meant that the Pokeball was empty so you just got to keep it.
But this is a funnier concept XD
