Pokémon Emerald Poké Balls

In Emerald, the Battle Frontier shop sells Ultra Balls at ₽1,200 and Trainer Hill can reward a Luxury Ball. No shop carries Luxury Balls, so the other ways are an item ball in Room 6 of the Abandoned Ship’s hidden floor, or a Master Rank Contest win in Lilycove City with a Pokémon that already won that category. Any Poké Mart throws in a Premier Ball with 10 Poké Balls.
