A Pocket Monster Pokemon ball that converts to a yo-yo. Made by Bandai of France. Uses a transaxle system and starburst response. Unlike other Pokemon ball yo-yos that have been made over the years by Bandai, this model was a dedicated yo-yo, meaning there were no parts to remove or add to use it as a yo-yo and a Pokemon ball.

More of a novelty yo-yo with limited functional playability. A total of three Pokemon ball yo-yos were available in this series from France: Timer Ball, Luxury Ball, and Quick Ball.

The Pokemon ball in this exhibit is known as the Luxury Ball. It is used for catching Pokémon and is the fanciest of Poké Balls made so far, along with it being the most expensive. While it is the same as a normal Poké ball in terms of success rates in general, a Pokémon caught in this ball forms a bond much more quickly with its trainer.
