* The Origin Ball's design is very similar to the [[Cherish Ball]].

* Unlike other [[Poké Ball]]s used in [[Hisui]], which shake only once before verifying a capture, the Origin Ball shakes three times, like modern-day Poké Balls.
* The Origin Ball is the only usable Poké Ball that is also a [[Key Item]], and the only kind of Poké Ball obtainable in a core series game that cannot be thrown during normal gameplay.
* The Origin Ball’s shape is that of a truncated icosahedron.
* The Origin Ball can only legitimately contain two species of Pokémon, the fewest of any Poké Ball in the core series games.
** Due to this, Dialga and Palkia are the only two Pokémon that can be legitimately caught in every kind of Poké Ball in the core series (besides the [[Park Ball]], which cannot be the registered Poké Ball of any Pokémon).
