Snag Machine: Difference between revisions

The '''Snag Machine''' is a machine designed by [[Cipher]] for [[Snagging]], or stealing, a [[Pokémon trainer|Trainer]]s' Pokémon. It is used by the main characters in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] for snagging [[Shadow Pokémon]] for purification.  The Snag Machine was originaly developed by Cipher and then given to [[Team Snagem]] in exchange for them snagging high grade [[Pokémon]] to be turned into Shadow Pokémon.

The [[Version 1 Snag Machine]] looked like a yellow Vending Machine with arms protruding from its sides. It stored its own [[Poké Ball]]s and converted them into [[Snag Ball]]s inside itself. We can assume that it acted autonomously since it shows no signs of a control box or control panel.

The [[Version 2 Snag Machine]] was much smaller, being able to be carried by a single person. It consists of a shoulder pad with a spiraling wire that is attached to a cocave cuftlink that is about the size and shape of a Rugby or Gridiron ball. The shoulder pad is worn over the left shoulder and the wire is coiled aroun the wearer's arm, and the cuftlink is then worn over the person's hand. This version does not store or carry its own Poké Balls. For a regular Poké Ball to be transformed into a Snag Ball, the wearer must hold an empty Poké Ball in their left hand while wearing the Snag Machine. When the Ball is thrown, the Snag Machine turns into a Snag Ball. At the beginning of Pokémon Colosseum, [[Wes]] steals the Version 2 Snag Machine when he destroys the [[Snagem Hideout]].
