The Cherish Ball (Japanese: プレシャスボール Precious Ball) is a type of Poké Ball introduced in Generation IV. Event Pokémon are often contained in a Cherish Ball.
In the core series games
Price
The Cherish Ball cannot legitimately be bought or sold.
Effect
Like the regular Poké Ball, the Cherish Ball has a catch rate modifier of 1×, but is not obtainable. Event Pokémon that do not require capture are often contained inside a Cherish Ball. The first such event Pokémon to be distributed in a Cherish Ball was Shokotan's Tropius.
From Generation VI onward, the Cherish Ball and the Master Ball are the only Poké Balls that cannot be passed down via breeding. Instead, any offspring will be contained in a regular Poké Ball.
