Introduced in the Generation IV games Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, the Dusk Ball is a specialized Poké Ball designed to be more effective at catching Pokémon during nighttime or in dark places like caves. Its unique properties make it a valuable tool for trainers exploring specific environments or hunting nocturnal Pokémon. In the games, it has a 3.5x catch rate modifier when used in dark areas or at night, significantly increasing the chances of a successful capture compared to a standard Poké Ball. The design of the Dusk Ball typically features a dark, almost black base with green accents and an orange-gold central button, reflecting its thematic connection to shadow and twilight. This item has since appeared in numerous subsequent Pokémon games, maintaining its utility and distinctive appearance. Its presence in the TCG reflects its importance as a strategic item for trainers.
