several Poké Balls are available, each with different properties:
- Poké Ball: Standard ball, good for close range.
- Great Ball: Improved catch rate, especially from behind.
- Ultra Ball: High catch rate, best for strong Pokémon.
- Heavy Ball: Better for heavy, unaware Pokémon, but short range.
- Leaden Ball: Improved Heavy Ball.
- Gigaton Ball: Best Heavy Ball variant.
- Feather Ball: Long range, good for flying Pokémon.
- Wing Ball: Improved Feather Ball.
- Jet Ball: Best Feather Ball variant.
- Origin Ball: Story-specific, guaranteed catch.
Combine these with items like Berries (Razz Berry, Nanab Berry) to distract or slow down Pokémon for easier catches.
