It was initally developed by [[Cipher]] so [[Team Snagem]] could steal [[Pokémon]] from their [[Pokémon trainer|trainers]] and give them to Cipher, who would change them into [[Shadow Pokémon]]. However, in both Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, they are used by the main characters for the opposite purpose: to steal back the Shadow Pokémon from Cipher and [[Purification|purify]] them into normal Pokémon. In Pokémon Colosseum, they are the only type of Poké Ball the main character uses, since there are no wild Pokémon to be found in [[Orre]].

When thrown, a Snag Ball is only visually different from a normal Poké Ball by five streaks of white which appear around it and close on the Pokémon being snagged as the Ball does. This effect looks like a hand grabbing the Pokémon. When a Pokémon has been caught with a Snag Ball, it does not say in the Pokémon's profile that it is contained in a Snag Ball. Instead, it says in the profile that its Ball is the type of Poké Ball which was initally converted into a Snag Ball. Presumably, this means that once the Pokémon is snagged, the Poké Ball reverts to a normal form. | When thrown, a Snag Ball is only visually different from a normal Poké Ball by five streaks of white which appear around it and close on the Pokémon being snagged as the Ball does.
