Poké Ball

The Poké Ball (モンスターボール, Monsutā Bōru, lit. Monster Ball) is an item in Super Smash Flash 2. They were left out of the original Super Smash Flash, but were added in the sequel. Poké Balls allow the player to call forth a randomly chosen Pokémon. The Pokémon will usually have a direct influence on the battle by attacking opponents, but some only cause status effects, act as reflectors, or do nothing to change the battle.

However, unlike Assist Trophies, the Pokémon is not automatically summoned when the player picks it up. In order for the Pokémon to appear, the player must throw the Poké Ball. This also means that they can be thrown at opponents. The Poké Ball must land in order to release the Pokémon inside it.

Trivia

 * It is possible to get a shiny gligar, as Gligar appears more blue than pink when released. Whether this is intentional or not is still unknown.
 * It is possible that Metang, Togepi, and Ditto will appear in the future, as they appeared in the intro for 0.9. While Ditto did make an appearance in Beta, Metang and Togepi did not.
 * Due to complications with some bugs, the Poké Balls, Assist Trophies, Bumpers, and Exploding Tags were disabled on demo v0.9b and has been added in patch 0.9.1.1965.
 * Out of all the Pokémon that can be released from a Poké Ball, only Charizard and Pichu were playable characters in the main Super Smash Bros. games.
