    They've shown numerous times that modern Poke Balls are electronic and made of metal, and have mirrors on the insides. There's even a reference sheet from the first season detailing exactly how they work

      What are the mirrors for though?

        The energized pokémon bounces around on the mirrors until the ball is opened.

          Pokémon shrink, dumbass. There is no energy.

            This shrinking bullshit has been debunked by the fact there have been several instances where doing so would be advantageous for Pokemon, but they never do it

            They don't abuse this ability to escape or hide, they don't use it to dodge attacks, they don't use it for anything BUT going into Poke Balls.

                Please cite your citations if you truly believe that pokemon turn into lasers when they enter the pokeball because as far as I remember, they never used that ability either. 🙂

              It's a universal allergic reaction to apricorns not an "ability"

                It's nothing to do with the apricorns themselves and all due to whatever energy the tumblestones give off.
                Do you fricks even lay the games? Shi, it's not as if "substance emits radiation/energy which disrupts other energy fields" shit is somehow new, Star Wars had several in-universe substances which could block or outright depower lightsaber blades too.

        Retconned. Now they're plastic gachapon capsules with no technology whatsoever which ruins them just like shrinking ruins pokemon.

          Sorry, but there was an instance where all electronic devices were disabled, and Poke Balls were included. Once you've established something like that, you can't retcon it. Poke Balls are electronic, and nothing can change that now

            There is also ghetsis' cane in BW/2 That disables pokeballs from working
            and in the aether area there's also something similar as a plot device to stop of from catching the squid

    I'm personally curious how the see through manga pokeball works
    Each canon does things so differently

    I had a headcanon of pokeballs being originally made to transport war prisoners from city-state to city-state, to better conceal them in traveling groups so they do not get ambushed by enemy combatants to free them. Only that the device the exact opposite thing, which was catching literally anything except human beings, and that turned into a positive thing as it made it very easy to transport pokemon into the battlefield and take them out if they’re injured during skirmishes and wars.

    But that might be too gruesome for children, so we got the “natural ability to shrink”.

    They trigger a pokemons shrinking instinct and attempt to trap them in the balls.

              That's not pocket monsters though? That clearly says capsule monsters. "But but but it's a rough idea before they finalized what pokemon would be!" Okay? That just proves my point even more that they don't shrink anymore because if i recall correctly its not called capsule monsters anymore, that "capamon" isn't a pokemon, and that's not what pokeballs even look like. Everything has changed, yet oooo they kept the shrinking!!

                Without capsule monsters, pocket monsters doesn't exist.
                Check. Mate.

                but they don't do that in Legends... they do that in Sword and Shield. In legends they switch to the lower LOD model and then just vanish

                And the inference is they shrink down while doing so, as they disappear largely in line with how they disappear from the battle scenes and overworld in the 3D games.

    Fricking morons, the shrinking shit in Legends is just an in-universe excuse for Pokemon spawning and de-spawning in front of you.

    It's not "lore", it's an excuse for the developer's laziness or game limitations.

        This dumb bullshit was never mentioned in any game up until Legends, and it invalidates every conflict in the series, because any Pokemon can just shrink itself down to escape from the bad guys, or make themselves impossibe to hit in battle. It'd be like a hero who has a power that could easily resolve the conflict, but there's no in-universe reason for why they don't do it, they just don't do it because there'd be no story if they did
