Prior to Generation VI, all hatched Pokémon are obtained in a standard red-and-white {{ball|Poké}}.


Starting in Generation VI, the [[Poké Ball]] of the female Pokémon (other than a [[Master Ball]] and {{ball|Cherish}}) will be passed down to its offspring. Male and genderless Pokémon (including Ditto) have no impact on the type of Poké Ball inherited; notably, when breeding a male or genderless Pokémon with Ditto (which is the only way to breed certain species), the offspring is always obtained in a standard Poké Ball.
