Don’t toss this Pokè Ball — you’ll only ‘ketch’ a hole in your wallet

The Pokémon Company International and The Wand Company have teamed up to release premium replicas of the classic Poké Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball, and Premier Ball.

These $99.99 die-cast metal balls come with sensor-tech that causes the button to light up and change colour when pressed.

Alas, whipping this nifty device out with all the flair of a master and declaring battle is about how far you can go. A good throw would shatter both the replica and your self esteem.

The device weights in at 10.5oz, about twice the weight of a baseball and good figure heavier than a cue ball.

It is uniquely described to possess “real heft.”

“Reassuringly solid,” cheered the designers.

London-based makers of replicas and collectibles ‘The Wand Company’ have even casually flung an ominous warning out for the mischievous of spirit: “This Poké Ball must never be thrown.”

The poké ball doesn’t open, which might make throwing it a little less appealing, but it does come with its own batteries. It is also available for preorder now.
