[[Image:Pokeball.jpg|frame|right|A Poké Ball]]  A '''Poké Ball''' is critical in any [[Pokémon trainer|trainer's]] quest.  It is used for capturing and storing wild [[Pokémon]]; a trainer may carry as many Poké Balls and ball variants as they desire.  However, a trainer may only carry up to 6 Pokémon at a time.  Therefore, if a trainer owns more than 6 Pokémon, they may be stored in [[Bill's PC|a Pokémon storage system]], and withdrawn or deposited at any [[Pokémon Center]].  There are 4 different basic levels of Poké Ball, and over a dozen variations on the Poké Ball design throughout the games.
