Dusk Ball is a type of Poké Ball in the Pokémon series that offers a higher catch rate in specific conditions. When used in caves or during nighttime, the Dusk Ball provides a 3.5× catch rate multiplier. This enhanced performance in darker environments makes it an excellent choice for trainers looking to catch elusive or powerful Pokémon under such conditions.
Effects: - Standard catch rate multiplier: 1× (during daytime or outside of caves). - Enhanced catch rate: 3.5× (in caves or at night).
Interesting Facts: 1. Introduced in Generation IV: The Dusk Ball was first introduced in the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl games, which belong to the fourth generation of the Pokémon series. 2.
