Heavy Balls are one of the 14 different Poké Balls that you can find throughout Paldea in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet. These illustrious Poké Balls were introduced in the second generation of games and let trainers catch wild Pokémon that are considered heavy. Depending on the Pokémon you are trying to catch, there is a catching modifier that is based on its weight.

Finding one, however, isn’t as easy as going to a Delibird Presents location and just buying one. Fortunately, there are a few different ways you can find one of these Poké Balls for yourself. So, where can you get Heavy Balls in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet?
