You know, in the original games Pokeballs were the one game-determining item that everyone dashed after. Now it's all about Assist Trophies and Smash Balls and Dragoon Parts. Compared to the power of those things, Pokeballs are a bit of a joke. I can't help but feel Pokeballs got a little slighted in this game... Poor things.
