There are many types of Pokémon to catch in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet throughout Paldea. These are captured with Pokéballs, of which many have different effectiveness. This goes up to the Master Ball, which has a 100 percent capture rate, but there are others, like the Level Ball. This may leave you wondering what the Level Ball does and how to get them in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
What do Level Balls do in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?
Level Balls are a unique type of Pokéballs that will be more effective against Pokémon lower level than your current Pokémon. This means you will want to put your highest level Pokémon as your lead Pokémon to be most effective. But unlike some Pokéballs, these cannot be purchased from the Delibird Presents stores.
