In the anime
A Quick Ball appeared in Which One ~ Is It?, a Japanese ending theme from Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl.
In Acting True to Form!, a Quick Ball appeared as a part of James's Poké Ball collection. It reappeared in Splash, Dash, and Smash for the Crown!.
In Mad About Blue!, Bluto was shown to keep his Croagunk in a Quick Ball.
In the manga
Pokémon Adventures
Black 2 & White 2 arc
In Abyssal Ruins, Blake gave Whitley a Quick Ball and had her use it to catch a Karrablast, which was shortly afterwards traded for Blake's newly caught Shelmet, causing both of them to evolve.
X & Y arc
In PS583, a Quick Ball was seen amongst the Poké Balls that Y had used while trying to catch an Absol.
In the TCG
- Main article: Quick Ball (Mysterious Treasures 114)
The Quick Ball, released in the Mysterious Treasures expansion, allows the player to uncover cards from their deck until they find a Pokémon. Its effect is similar to the Fast Ball.
Trivia
- As of Generation V, Pokémon with a catch rate of 153 or higher are guaranteed to be caught in a Quick Ball, providing it is not an Ultra Beast or other special type of encounter (such as a higher level Pokémon before finishing the storyline of Pokémon Sword and Shield).
- In Generation IV, Pokémon with a catch rate of 192 or higher are guaranteed to be caught, though any with catch rates ranging from 151 to 191 have a 99.994% chance to succeed.
