[[File:GO Beast Ball.png|120px|thumb|right|The Beast Ball in Pokémon GO]] | |||
In {{g|GO}}, the Beast Ball is a special, event-exclusive Poké Ball used only during [[Ultra Beast]] encounters. They have a ×20 {{OBP|catch rate|GO}} multiplier.<ref>[https://twitter.com/bmenrigh_pogo/status/1622760228063449088 bmenrigh on X]</ref> | |||
Currently, the Beast Ball is only available in Pokémon GO during specific [[List of events (GO)|in-game events]]. When these events are active, Beast Balls are the only kind of Poké Ball that can be used to capture an Ultra Beast. | |||
* For {{GO|Raid Battle}} bonus challenges, players will be given a set of Beast Balls in place of Premier Balls. | |||
* For {{GO|Research}} and [[GO Battle League]] reward encounters, players will have an infinite supply of Beast Balls. | |||
** Due to a possible bug, [[Berry|Berries]] cannot be used during Ultra Beast encounter. | |||
Like the [[Premier Ball]], it is never put into the player's [[Bag]] and cannot be kept after the encounter. | |||
