FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY
Conditional Ball

This new variety of Pokeball will be useful in setting traps, containing powerful Pokemon, catching uncommon species, and expanding the relationship between people, Pokemon, and Pokemon freedom.

Using the attached technical documentation, a user can program a Conditional Ball to release or recapture the Pokemon it contains when certain criteria are met.

For example, a Voltorb could be released whenever a wild Pokemon enters the Ball's detection radius (about 100'), then automatically recaptured when the wild Pokemon is defeated. 

Or a Bike could be released when a paying customer speaks the correct password. 

Or a Pidgey could be released (and de-chipped) on the count of three for trainers to capture as sport.

Or your pet Meowth could be free to roam your house from dawn to dusk, and withdrawn as soon as the sun sets. Just make sure she can't leave the 100' detection radius!


There's an alternate use for a Conditional Ball. If you study a wild specimen long enough to understand it (5 Rounds), you can alter the program to increase the chances of the Ball capturing that specimen. An Almanac, or Almanac plugin for Pokedex, is necessary.
(Spending 5 Rounds studying a wild Pokemon, then you can use Knowledge+Computer Science to determine Seal Strength on any future Conditional Balls for that specimen.)

There are twenty sample Conditional Balls.

About what size are the Conditional Balls?  And are there any pokemon in any of them?  Gallade and Calam are instructed to stay Alert in case anything decides to try and surprise them.

Standard Pokeball size. Only one contains a Pokemon - a Mr. Mime.
