It's the companys fault for looking at the 151 and saying, what if we replaced all this with random bullshit? I miss the og pokemon. I tried playing newer games but damn, it's pure chaos.

Literally two Pokeballs with eyes, one is just flipped upside down. Peak design.

It's gotta make you wonder if the pokeball or voltorb came first....

In Arceus, they're grass/electric because they're emulating the original wooden pokéballs

Voltorbs are just very angry dittos.
