What are Pokeballs made of?

[League]

Pokeballs are modified Voltorbs.

Which made me wonder, is the pokeball inspired from Foongus & Amoonguss??

Or are they manmade pokemons? O_O

Or maybe the inventor of the 'modern' Pokeball got the idea of the Red-Black Stripe-white design from Foongus/Amoonguss and during the days where the person was building the balls, something happened causing Voltorbs and Electrodes to be created

yes that sounds like a good theory. But why Foongus? lol...

 

[Bunny525]

maybe silicon, due to my theory that pokemon are turned into data when inside a pokeball:bounce:

 

[Almonds]

That's really something I never thought of... Well, I guess they're made of some kind of flexible plastic, or light metal like aluminium. As for the catching part... I don't know how they zap in pokemons that are bigger than them.

 

[Tolan]

I think some kind of carbon-fiber or kevlar.

A pokeball is what happens when the micro and the macro come together.

Apparently pokeballs, (Which are capable of transferring large amounts of matter from reality to some form of cybernetic matrix that is placed within the small confines of a sphere that is capable of changing in size at the touch of a button.) are made from nuts that grow off of trees.
Welcome to the Pokemon Universe everybody.

1. Find a tree and pull off a nut.
2. Give it to random pokeball guy.
3. Guy carves the nut.
4. ???
5. Gain complex pokeball.
6. PROFIT

PokePlastic? ?

 

[Space Opera]

Something light, but at the same time strong - most likely carbon fiber, or some kind of light metal.

 

[AndyPKMN]

Obviously there's electronic components inside, but I always imagined the outer shell was some sort of vinyl, with enough "bounce" to it that the ball wouldn't be damaged when you threw it at a Pokémon.

 

[RaccoonGoon]

Metal, plastic, Tupperware, copper, and magic.

 

[Drakon]

Interior is probably hardened, shockproof electronic components while the exterior may be composed of a mix of light but strong metal alloys and/or composite materials.

 

[The Knights of Wario Land]

Like everything else in the Pokemon universe, they are made of magic.

That's the only way they make sense.

 

[Quetsol Melt]

I can't seem to think of anything but yet again some good mysteries are left unsaid.

 

[FullmetalSuicune]

There made out of Poke Balls.

Poke Ball + Poke Ball = Poke Ball :XD:

To be honest I don't know what they are made of but people here have some great theories
Maybe there made out of just anime logic. Anything. Can. Happen. In. Anime.

 

[AlexTheRose]

Plastic, silicone circuitry, and a lot of fired-up electrons and neutrons. Simple as that. Or is it?

 

[Cap'n Jack]

Sorcery.

 

[AlphaGreninja]

Different types of pokeballs are made of different things. For example, a normal pokeball is probably made of plastic, while a masterball may be made out of an extremely advanced titanium alloy. As for the interior, I personally think that the interior contains something that helps it do its function. For example, a repeatball might have a transmitter that shows an image of the pokemon you caught of the same species, allowing an interior mechanisim to activate, catching the pokemon. A moonball might have a moonstone, which triggers the interior mechanism, catching the pokemon. While a diveball might flood, making the pokemon you caught interested in exploring it, triggering the mechanism, catching the pokemon.

What ever they are made of it is certainly not strong.If someone can step on it and easily break..well you know
