CoroCoro Comic's Official website posted an article about this episode just before the original airing on November 17th, 2023.

Anipoke is just around the corner! Monster ball romance!! A mysterious monster ball craftsman appears!

pic

Broadcasting every week from 6:55 pm! The anime "Pocket Monsters" will start airing soon! In this article, we'll introduce you to the Pokémon and characters that will appear in today's episode, as well as comments from the voice actors and director, and other information you won't find anywhere else!

Liko and her friends decide to go see someone who is interested in rare balls that Tepen, who tried to steal Roy's ancient monster ball last time, had mentioned. Relying on Tepen's information, they arrive at the Monster Ball factory in the Galar region! ...Then suddenly, something jumped out from inside the factory!!?

pic

▲ They arrived at a mysterious factory deep in the mountains. Where is the person that was mentioned by Tepen who will buy any rare ball at any price ......?

pic

▲ Orio seems interested in the equipment at the Monster Ball Factory.

pic

▲ Suddenly, the factory doors open with the sound of an explosion, and a suspicious shadowy figure jumps out of the factory......!!

pic

▲ Yes! (It's a little hard to see with all the smoke.) This is the person who runs this ball factory, Karna, a monster ball maker!

Karna, a monster ball craftsman who runs a ball factory, is said to be making balls filled with her "specialties" at this factory! The factory is filled with prototypes of balls made by Karna! Roy's eyes lit up at the sight of these balls, many of which he had never seen anywhere before, and he asked Karna to let him try the prototype balls!

pic

▲ This is a reproduction of a ball that was once used in the Hisui Region. This is also made by Karna!

pic

▲ Karna's prototype balls, made with passion and commitment, come in a variety of shapes and sizes! What kind of effect do they have?

pic

▲ Roy practicing throwing the ball. The prototypes were not easy to make, and they were all very difficult to throw in a straight line.

pic

▲ A test throw hits a Galar Matadogas unexpectedly......!?

A mechanic and a monster ball craftsman, two "dedicated craftsmen" who have different paths! Orio and Karna hit it off perfectly, but then Karna suddenly says something unexpected and......!!?

pic

▲ The two are actually very similar. However, they get along too well and an unexpected situation arises!!

The story will continue later in the evening at 6:55pm on Anipoke! Maybe Karna will know something about the Ancient Monster Ball!?

▲かつてヒスイ地方で使われていたボールを再現したもの。これもカーナ作!
▲情熱とこだわりをもって作ったカーナの試作ボールは形も様々! どんな効果があるのかな?
▲カーナのボールで投げる練習をするロイ。試作品とあって、なかなか一筋縄ではいかない曲者ぞろい。

Note

Bill Rogers announced on August 29th, 2024 that he was the voice of Galarian Weezing.

I realized that while I confirmed with some Poké groups, I never officially announced that I voice Galarian Weezing. And boy, does he get a great intro! Watch a fleet of these stodgy lil guys cause a ruckus in ep 29 of Pokémon Horizons "Orla and the Poké Ball Smith" on Netflix
01:53

After Story

The original airing on BBC iPlayer on May 27th, 2024 had lower case "Poké Ball" in the title during the title card sequence. The airing on Netflix on August 9th, 2024 corrected this and changed the title to have completely upper case letters.

Production Art

The official Japanese Anime PR Twitter account posted a behind-the-scenes look at the making of this Anipoke episode with a production artwork piece on November 16th, 2023. The picture featured Nyahoja and Terapagos.

An original drawing of Nyahoja and Terapagos from episode 29.
They are playing around with each other.
Maybe the two of them are becoming closer...!?
