Diamond, Pearl and Platinum Battling: Pokéballs | List of Pokéballs available in-game

In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, a whole load of new Pokéballs were introduced. Here is a complete list of the new ones, with the old ones thrown in too.

Name
Price
Where
Recommended?
Pokéball 200 All good Pokémarts In the early stages, yes, but in latter stages, you should be using alternatives.
Great Ball 600 Most Pokémarts Again, in the early stages, this is a good Pokéball, but can dwindle later in the game.
Ultra Ball 1200 Pokémarts roughly later than Pastoria City This is a highly recommended Pokéball for the daytime, with good capture rate.
Master Ball N/A Given to you by Cyrus in Galactic HQ, and winning the Pokémon Lotto in Jubilife TV Centre. There is only one of these easily obtainable in the game, so use it wisely, preferrably on Mesprit or Cresselia.
Heal Ball 300 All Pokémarts past Sandgem Town A good Pokéball if you want to use a Pokémon quickly, as it completely heals the Pokemon you catch. It does not have a very high capture rate though.
Net Ball 1000 Pokémarts in Floaroma onwards, roughly Good for capturing Water and Bug types.
Nest Ball 1000 Pokémarts past Hearthome City Good on weaker Pokemon (lower levels).
Dusk Ball 1000 Pokémarts past Eterna City Extremely good for nighttime capturing.
Quick Ball 1000 Pokémarts past Veilstone Department Store Good at the beginning of battles.
Timer Ball 1000 Pokémarts past Canalave City Good at the end of battles.
Repeat Ball 1000 Pokémarts past Canalave City Good for Pokemon you have already captured.
Luxury Ball 1000 Pokémarts past Snowpoint City Increases the friendship of the Pokémon inside it, so good for catching Chansey.
Cherish Ball N/A Obtained at a Nintendo Darkrai event ???

Well, I hope you enjoyed seeing what all of the Pokéballs do. I hope you use this table wisely, and hopefully, I will be writing more guides soon!

Thanks to Lorem Ipsum for this!

The Cherish Ball contains special give-away Pokemon from Nintendo... Or can be obtained by creating a hacked Pokemon with the PokeSav thingy...

Why would saying "gotcha" do anything? For a start, it's a Japanese game.

The cherish ball is aball that has a normal chance of catching a pokemon and the pokesav program make pokemon which can delete you whole file

Dive Balls aren't mentioned. They can only be received from the newspaper guy in Solaceon Town and they increase the chance of catching Pokemon in the ocean (apparently).

^ That only applies underwater, so they are quite redundant in DPP.
The Sasquatch on Fri 09 Jan 2009 01:23:08 UTC.
So if I had a nest ball and used it on a lvl 50 pokemon with one HP it would'nt have a good catch rate?

Hisashi on Fri 03 Apr 2009 22:08:46 UTC.
