In the ''{{uv|Pokémon}}'' series, the Master Ball is one of the rarest Poké Ball variants, and the most powerful. Whereas all other Poké Ball variants 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. {{s|bulbapedia|Legendary Pokémon}} are typically much more difficult to capture than most other Pokémon due to having very low {{iw|bulbapedia|catch rate}}s, and are thus a prime target for a Master Ball. However, contrary to its depiction in ''Smash'', most {{s|bulbapedia|Mythical Pokémon}} (such as Arceus, Marshadow, and Genesect) cannot be legitimately found in a Master Ball; as they are {{s|bulbapedia|event Pokémon}}, they can only be received in the special, all-red {{s|bulbapedia|Cherish Ball}}.

Usually, only one Master Ball is obtained per save file, but they also appear as rare prizes from lottery minigames. The Master Ball is typically obtained from a character in the story at some point prior to encountering the game's main Legendary Pokémon.
