How relevant is the Pokéball GS in 2025?
A gold-and-silver Poké Ball appears in the Pokémon anime, is passed from Professor Ivy to Ash to Professor Oak to Kurt… and then vanishes without explanation. This is the story of the GS Ball: how it was meant to unlock a Celebi arc in Johto, why that plan was scrapped for a movie, and how the mystery became one of the franchise’s most famous loose threads. We trace its journey across anime, games, and manga — from its Japan-only debut in Pokémon Crystal via the Mobile System GB, to its long-delayed global release on the 3DS Virtual Console, and its current rarity after the eShop shutdown. Along the way, we explore its role in Johto’s folklore, its preservation as a lost-and-found piece of game history, and why it still sparks nostalgia, theories, and creative tributes in 2025. With Matteo George & Sam Raichu.
