various types of Poke Balls (annotated in post)
poke ball
Japanese name: モンスターボール (Monster Ball)
You know, Poké Balls!
P-O-K-accent-E Balls!
Known as a Monster Ball in Japan; a spherical capsule used to capture and store Pokémon (Pocket Monsters). The most common and recognized Poké Ball is the titular basic variant, which has two colored halves: red on top and white on bottom. It is one of the central symbols of the franchise.
Normally, captured Pokémon are shrunken down and stored inside the ball, though some refuse to go inside the Poké Balls. Ash's Pikachu is a notable example.
Some Pokémon are noticeably similar to Poké Balls: Voltorb, Electrode, Foongus, Amoonguss, Galarian Stunfisk, and Brute Bonnet.
Note: Don't use ball, holding_ball and related "ball" tags when the object in question is a Poké Ball. Simply use poke_ball, holding_poke_ball, etc. Don't tag Tera Orbs as Poké Balls.
