They call me a pokeball the way I fail so often
Caparoni with dat lying strips
Turtle soup's passion for balls is unmatched

0:26 I am pretty sure that is just an ultra ball that got ruined by sprite compression, the right half of the ball is black after all.
I always thought so too
Nope, Wikstrom also uses those yellow Poké Balls.
Just like me.
If you look close you'll see a tiny bit of black on top so it's definitely an ultra ball. Also it's not fuzzy because of compression, it's fuzzy because it got resized poorly. The original image is only 64 x 64 pixels.
Imagine getting a shuriken thrown at and stuck in you and then it's still not done yet because a monster comes out of it and starts attacking you.
For anyone else curious about why decal is being pronounced that way, it's a regional thing.
Upstate New York?
@@TheDSS64 It's an Albany pokeball
@@TheDSS64 a lot of us in western canada say it like "deckle", i know that much.
I was about to complain about that, but good to know I guess.
0:25 Wikstrom also uses these yellow Poké Balls. They're in his official art, X and Y model, and even his Masters model.
I can’t believe I forgot about wilkstrom! One of these days they gotta show us where these e4 members are doing their ball shopping
@@Turtle-Soup I bet they're modifying regular ones. They must know someone who does that professionally or something. Maybe Kurt or someone related to him in some way.
@@waxwinged_hounddude it’s just a kids game
@@BagzAndPresident Why did you target ME for this and not everyone else who's looking way too deep into this "kid's game"
It looks like how tms look in the overworld.
Man I wish more pokeballs were available in mainline games. The amount of creativity one can have with pokeball and pokemon pairings would be astronomical.
When doing research for this video, there was quite a few times I was wishing we had them in the main games. The evil teams having their own custom balls would be such a fun detail.
@@Turtle-Soup I love the dark ball that was used by the villain in the Celebi 4 ever movie. It made pokemon go immediatly to the highest level and turned them into dark version of themselves. I still think that's cool to this day. I don't like what he did to Celebi despite thinking the dark balls are cool and i'm glad Celebi turned out alright and recovered. Just Imagine if the people using the shadow pokemon in the shadow pokemon gamecube games threw out their shadow pokemon with dark balls instead of normal pokeballs
"positioning their balls for a surprise attack" was not on my bingo card for this video lmao
7:05, it is in fact just further customization of the ball at 7:01
Also, as for the Ancient Ball found at 7:19. There are multiple Ancient Balls 6 of them in total that contains the Six Heroes that belonged to Lucius. Also, Roy isn’t the only wielder of these Ancient Balls, currently Liko wields 3 and Roy wields the Rayquaza Ancient Ball
Thank you for the expanded info! I’m pretty behind on the anime so some of the newer entries were definitely a bit fuzzy!
i always get a lil serotonin boost when people mention Ruby and Sapphire Brendan (especially when talking about different colored Poké Balls). he isn't talked about or mentioned as much compared to Emerald and ORAS, he's my favorite ;;
While I’m a fan of all of his designs, his RS design will always be the one I think of first, thanks in part to the adventures manga.
Glacia is actually supposed to be holding an Ultra Ball. The sprite is just kinda messy.
I always thought about how pokeballs seem to just return to trainers in battles when in actuality you’d probably have to walk over and get it. So I thought it would be cool if they were kinda like yo-yos. You can throw the ball and the wire can will retract after the Pokémon is sent out
I swear I thought you kept saying snake ball lol I was like the what? Lol it's snag 😂 nice video
the most impressive feature of the mewtwo ball is the ability to capture other pokeballs
Oh my god the Dark Ball FUCKS if it weren't evil I would so use that for everything.
Honey I can't go for dinner, turtle soup made another video essay about pokeballs
Y’all I think that’s just a common alternative pronunciation usually seen in Canada. I’m not Canadian but it took two seconds on google to see that’s a widely accepted way of saying it 😭 If anything I’m more confused about the snag part
Regardless I really enjoyed the video! Thanks for covering these some I hadn’t seen or heard about before. You did a good job compiling a fair amount!
Thanks for the kind words!
I always know that how I pronounce decal will rustle some Jimmies, but didn’t realize snag could’ve been one I’ve also been pronouncing weird lmao
I kind of wish they would allow the dark ball in Pokémon Go. The ability to turn any Pokemon into a shadow Pokémon would be awesome.
That would be a really fun way to repurpose an old idea! Could see it being a thing that’s given out like the masterball
Lmao you're supposed to be the good guy though
@@KreepyKat911 Not really. When you transfer Pokemon, they are unalived for the candy. I also like the idea of the player IRL being able to choose whether they are a hero, anti-hero, or villain. I would consider myself in the game an antihero.
@lucideirune1635 Well that's just fanon lmao. I'm not saying I oppose it, I'm just saying the game, like every pokemon game, puts you in the position of a good person doing good guy things
Is Glalcia’s ball not just an ultra ball? It’s not a perfect sprite of an ultra ball but it sure seems like that’s what they were going for.
It’s totally possible! Could definitely just be biased with my desire for a proper yellow ball that influences how I see it
Always wanted the crystal pokeballs from the entei movie in an actual game, when i saw terra pokemon for the first time i was hoping we would get something like it to catch em in like how ultra beasts have beast balls.
I'm kinda weirded out by pronunciation of "decal".
Also, the GS Ball doesn't have a decal, but an engraving.
It's a normal pronunciation, don't worry.
Keep this content coming brother!
6:26 Rocket Ball looks like Customized Kyogre Ball
A weird potential honorable mention (cause tbh idk where else they could go) couldve been the mysterious artifacts from the ep the ancient puzzle of pokemopolis where two artifacts contained a giant gengar and giant alakazam, i guess its a little unclear if theyre supposed to be real pokemon or not tho
I hope they bring back ball decals in future games so we can customize. I loved that feature in HGSS
Was always a big fan of the feature myself. Was really glad to see them return in bdsp, I assumed they would’ve just been left out.
PART 2 WOOOOOO
I feel like the staff from lucario and the mystery of mew also counts as it houses lucario.
Pokémon Conquest isn't a mainline game and has a interesting "catching mechanic"...
you forgot the ancient double sided ****plug from episode 74 to catch the giant ancient Alakazam Gengar and Jigglypuff
We got vary loose with what counted as a pokeball huh.😂😂😂😂
so good 🔥🔥🔥
Everytime I hear outro I smile cry. Great videos though
YOO MORE POKEBALL POSTING
Watching this and the previous ball video back to back and I'm kinda disappointed the messed up Ruby and sapphire pokeball sprites weren't mentioned. The ultra ball sprite in those games has inverted markings. All of them look really weird and I'm glad emerald had resprites for them
The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis, and the ancient pokeballs....
I know they aren't balls but the devices from the anime episode with giant Alakazam, Gengar, and Jigglypuff may have been worth mentioning
I like to think that the villainous team balls, if they were able to be used by the player in the main series games, would have a greater catch rate against pokemon notably used by that team (For example, the Aqua Balls would be proficient at catching the Sharpedo and Mighteyena evolutionary lines) and would have normal catch rates otherwise.
For some reason whenever someone mentions Pokeballs outside the games, I ALWAYS, without fail, think of the Dark Ball first. Maybe because of its unique design and the awful things it does to Pokemon. Also I saw the Celebi movie as a kid so it stuck with me more I guess. I kinda wish they would appear again.
It is definitely one I think of more than the others. 4ever is easily a top 5 Pokémon movie for me.
@@Turtle-Soup Definitely had one of the most menacing villains, and the twist with who Sam grew up to be was really cool. I remember when the movie came out on DVD it came with a special Suicune card. I still have that card to this day, it's one of my favorites.
Good vid
This was a very cool and detailed dive into the nom game pokeballs, very fun watch, great job man. My only critique would be you seemed to be speaking pretty fast, and while I am sure that helped make the video not drag on too long, it was just a little jarring jumping between balls so quickly. But like I said, it still was a very fun watch
Thanks! The fast speaking is something that’s been commented on before and I’m trying to get better at slowing down, but it’s just something I gotta keep working on
@@Turtle-Soup yeah I mean youtube is kinda like public speaking, it takes practice, I bet you will get over it soon, I mean you seem to have a positive growth mindset so like ya said all ya can do it practice
The 3 ancient pokeballs that housed the 3 giant ancient pokemon, gengar, alakazam and jigglypuff
One you missed that showed up in both the anime AND games is fishing poles with Pokeballs on the end of the line, almost like lures. The Fisherman class has it in their sprites in some gens, and there was even a trainer in the anime that sent out a Kingdra i believe using a rod when he fought Ash in a competition during the Johto arc.
I cannot believe I forgot about the fishing pole. Easily the most iconic form of a trainer modifying their ball in some form
U didn’t mention how the yellow pokeball in glacial’s art became the item ball and also the lake ball could be a lure ball variant too
Dang I totally forgot about the yellow ball for overworld!
@@Turtle-Soup😅
@@Turtle-Souphow about a short 😅
9:19 i'm certain that the entire magma ball is black, mirroring how the entire aqua ball is white, the yellow light the magma ball emits changes it (like you said), however not from white, from black
Dee-cal, not Decl. You forgor the one the giant ancient Gengar and I think Alakazam were in? One was like...a flute I think?
Those are what I thought of and yeah they were relics I believe a spoon and a vajra, and Bigglypuff used a bell as a microphone.
Deckle is a pretty common pronunciation depending on where you're from, and it's closer to the word it originated from (décalomanie, pronounced day-cal-oh-mah-nee)
I thought the unite ball was called the rally ball
Polkaball
ngl just from the intro
While writing this comment im 0:25 seconds in
And i already want to try to challenge my friends to watch this video
To take a shot every time Turtle said the word Balls :P
I cannot in good faith recommend that you try this, but if you do, I wish for the best
0:10 I enjoy Pokemon, but my balls never work properly. They also look weird.
Why is there a bomb pokeball
What about Magikarp's solid gold Poké Ball?
Solid gold, yes...definitely not just gold coated
ok
Pia Ball
pronouncing beige as "baygie" is crazy!
I was saying “beigey” kind of like “yellowy.” Wasn’t confident in committing to calling it full on beige.
Nide balls, bro
Thank you being so kind loving All mighty God help me and these people to better understand you amen
Don’t forget the Flare Ball from ONE. SINGULAR. PANEL. in the Pokemon Adventures XY manga.
I’m pretty sure they exist…I remember seeing them, but I can’t find anything on the internet about them..
Reading this comment and it seems vaguely familiar, yet not finding anything either. Wonder if there was something like a popular fan art a while back or if we’ve been hit with the Mandela effect.
@@N.EO-Quartz They have the whole thing scanned and uploaded to MangaDex and I actually found it! Volume 2 Chapter 15 on page 25.
I’m certain I remember seeing them in the manga…
Oh weird, my earlier comment isn't here any more. I found the manga on mangadex and skimmed through it, the flare balls are on page 25 of volume 2, chapter 15, top right panel.
