Nintendo Switch’sPokémon Legends : Arceuswill be total a new eccentric of lore - friendly   Poké Ball , Strange Balls , as part of its upcomingPokémon Homecompatibility update . Pokémon Legends : Arceusintroduced Modern   Poké Ballsdue to the fact that it ’s set in the distant past of the   Pokémon world , which is unfamiliar compared to the era where the other mainlinePokémongames take place .

The events ofPokémon Legends : Arceushappen during a time when modern   Poké Balls had n’t been invented yet . Instead , the   Pokémon Trainers of the world used steam - power   Poké Balls to capture their targets . Part of the secret plan ’s gimmick involves showing how   Pokémon Trainers operated in the era before futuristic engineering made everything so commodious , with the   Pokédex being a strong-arm Word , and   Pokémon being stored in farms , rather than a personal computer box .

The fact thatPokémon caption : Arceushappens at such a different point in time creates a trouble when trading with other game . Pokémongames do n’t supportPokémon Homeat launching , meaning fans have to hold off months before they can bring   Pokémon in from their other games . That hold off is about to be over for the recentPokémongames , as the officialPokémon UKwebsite has announced thatPokémon BDSPandPokémon Legends : Arceuswill receivePokémon Homesupport before long , and that Strange Balls will be added toPokémon legend : Arceusto accommodate Pokémon from outside of the game . The website confirms that transferring   Pokémon fromBDSPandSword and ShieldtoLegends : Arceusmeans they ’ll show up in - biz in a Strange Ball , while transferring   Pokémon fromLegends : Arceuswill see them make it in - plot in regular   Poké Balls .

Strange Balls are shining green   Poké Balls with a milklike tincture in the center . Pokémon Legends : Arceusdataminers come across Strange Ballsin the past , but their rightful purpose was unknown . Many speculated that their inclusion may be have-to doe with to an unannounced DLC for the plot , though others were convinced that Strange Balls were part of the title ’s succeeding desegregation with thePokémon Homestorage and transfer system , as has prove to be the showcase .

The existence of Strange Balls does n’t quite answer the time paradox established by futuristic   Poké Lucille Ball come out in the ancient Hisui region , and they were belike created to cut down on exploitation time . Pokémon Legends : Arceusfeatures unique   Poké Balls that are more crude than the classic   Poké Ball intent , so it would have been a nuisance to let in all of the modern variants from biz likePokémon BDSP . ThePokémonseries is n’t exactly rigid with its canon , so the presence of Strange Balls can just be chalk up as being another one ofPokémon Legends : Arceus ' unsolved mysteriesthat will never be addressed in futurePokémongames .
