A '''rice ball''' (Japanese: '''御握り; おにぎり'''''[[wp:onigiri|onigiri]]'') is a snack that appears in the [[Pokémon anime]] many times and, in the dub, under a variety of different names. [[Brock]] makes them fairly often, and they are frequently used in gags.

To give the snack a name which American children would be more familiar with, the dub has referred to them as such things as jelly donuts and popcorn balls.  During the [[Hoenn League]], the [[4Kids]] dub replaced giant rice balls with large sandwiches, which was not received well by the fanbase. When [[Pokémon USA]] started dubbing the series, all rice balls were no longer edited.
