The '''Repeat Ball''' (Japanese: '''リピートボール''' ''Repeat Ball'') is a type of [[Poké Ball]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It can be used to catch a [[wild Pokémon]], being more likely to succeed if the Pokémon is already registered as caught in the Trainer's [[Pokédex]]. It was developed by the [[Devon Corporation]].

The Repeat Ball (Japanese: リピートボール Repeat Ball) is a type of Poké Ball introduced in Generation III. It can be used to catch a wild Pokémon, being more likely to succeed if the Pokémon is already registered as caught in the player's Pokédex. It was developed by the Devon Corporation.

Effect

050Diglett.png This section is incomplete.
Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it.
Reason:
  • If the player has caught a Pokémon that is not found in the currently available Pokédex (such as a Pokémon outside the regional Pokédex when the player does not have the National Pokédex), does this Pokémon trigger the catch rate modifier from the Repeat Ball?
  • If the wild Pokémon used Transform, does the Repeat Ball check for the original species or the transformed species?
  • How does the ball function in Colosseum and XD given there is no mechanic to keep track of which Pokémon has been caught before and the closest thing to a Pokédex is the Strategy Memo?

Manual activation

When used from the Bag in a wild encounter, it attempts to catch the wild Pokémon. If used on a Pokémon that is already registered as owned in the player's Pokédex, it has an increased catch rate modifier.

The Repeat Ball cannot be used in situations in which Poké Balls cannot be used, such as in wild battles with two or more opponents currently present or against a trial Pokémon. If used in a Trainer battle (except if used as a Snag Ball on a Shadow Pokémon), the opposing Trainer will deflect it, wasting the ball. If used on the ghost Marowak, it will dodge it, wasting the ball.

Generation III to VI

If used on a Pokémon that is already registered as owned in the player's Pokédex, the Repeat Ball has a 3× catch rate modifier; otherwise, it has a 1× modifier.

Generation VII onward

If used on a Pokémon that is already registered as owned in the player's Pokédex, the Repeat Ball has a 3.5× catch rate modifier; otherwise, it has a 1× modifier. If used on an Ultra Beast, the catch rate modifier is instead always set to 410/4096× (~0.1×).

Held item

Fling fails if the user is holding a Repeat Ball.
