The '''Master Ball''' ({{ja|マスターボール|Masutā Bōru}}, ''Master Ball'') is an item that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. It functions similarly to a [[Poké Ball]], and releases a Pokémon when thrown, but unlike a Poké Ball, it usually releases rare or legendary Pokémon; however, there is also a chance that a Master Ball releases the dud Pokémon [[Goldeen]], which deals no damage. Legendary Pokémon can appear from both types of Poké Balls, but a Master Ball is far more likely to contain a legendary Pokémon.

In the ''[[Pokémon (universe)|Pokémon]]'' series, the Master Ball is by far the rarest of all Poké Ball variants, with the player usually able to only legitimately obtain one per save file without resorting to lottery-based minigames or trading. Whereas all other Poké Ball types may fail at capturing a wild Pokémon under certain circumstances, a Master Ball will catch any wild Pokémon without fail regardless of their health and status, making it trivial to catch difficult or legendary Pokémon, but only once per game.
