How to get Quick Balls in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Here’s how you can get Quick Balls in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet:

Obtaining them as Pokedex rewards

You can get Quick Balls as rewards for catching and evolving Pokemon, and then adding these species to your Pokedex in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

The following are the two Pokedex milestones that ensure Quick Balls as rewards:

• After registering 120 Pokemon to your Pokedex, press ‘X’ to go to the ‘Rewards’ menu and claim your Quick Ball.
• After registering 200 Pokemon to your Pokedex, you can get another Quick Ball from Jacq in the Biology Lab of the Academy.

Finding them as dropped items

As you explore the Paldea region in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you will be able to interact with various dropped items on the ground, and there’s a good chance that these items may turn out to be Quick Balls.

Buying them from Delibird Presents or Poke Mart

Lastly, one of the most direct ways you can get Quick Balls in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is by purchasing them from any Poke Mart or Delibird Presents in the various towns of the Paldea region.

However, players should note that they need to first unlock Delibird Presents and Poke Mart by defeating six Gym Leaders in Pokemon Scarlet or Violet. After you’ve defeated them and earned six Badges, you will be able to access both Poke Mart and Delibird Presents in the game.

Delibird Presents is available in the following Paldean towns:

• Levincia
• Mesagoza
• Cascarrafa

Poke Marts, on the other hand, can be found throughout the map. Each Quick Ball will cost you 1000 Poke Dollars in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
