If used [[underwater]], the Dive Ball has a 3.5× [[catch rate]] modifier; otherwise, it has a 1× modifier.

* In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, a {{tc|Sailor}} in the [[Mossdeep City]] [[Poké Mart]] mentions that Dive Balls and [[Net Ball]]s are only made in Mossdeep.

* In Pokémon Colosseum and XD, [[Phenac Stadium]] is considered an underwater location, so the Dive Ball has an increased catch rate in that location. Because Dive Balls are not normally available in those games, and [[trade|trading]] is only unlocked during the postgame, the player cannot have Dive Balls in their possession until the postgame. The only catchable Shadow Pokémon that can appear in Phenac Stadium during the postgame are the Shadow Pokémon in the [[Card e Room]], which is exclusive to the Japanese version of Pokémon XD and only accessible after scanning an appropriate [[e-Reader]] card; thus, these are the only Pokémon in either game for which the Dive Ball's increased catch rate can apply. | |||
