Description
The GS Ball is an infamous gold and silver Poké Ball that was a MacGuffin in the Johto arc of the Pokémon anime. Ash and his friends had to take this special Poké Ball that could not open nor could be transferred via PC to a man named Kurt in hopes that he would be able to open it. Although the ball was eventually given to him, it was never opened and promptly forgotten. According to a 2008 interview with Masamitsu Hidaka the ball was supposed to contain a Celebi that was going to be the focus of an arc of the Johto saga, but it was later decided to make it the star of Pokémon 4Ever. As a result, the story arc was deemed redundant and was shelved. The ball was left with Kurt as the producers hoped that viewers would later forget about it.
