>>31775579Considering Pokemon are conscious and can speak and react from inside the Poke Balls, they must have a mouth and a brain. I remember your Poke Balls trembling when facing Ghetsis, which Ghetsis claims is probably your Pokemon shaking with rage. I doubt these are things "data" can do. There's also absolutely NOTHING backing up the data theory, so I don't know why anyone would even consider it unless you're a retarded YouTuber.
If there's an ideal environment for a Pokemon inside Poke Balls, the Pokemon has to be temporarily shrunk to fit in. So the first and third options are basically the same. Since different types of Pokemon have different catch rates, there's probably some sort of environment inside. Like Net Ball, for example, is liked by Bug-types. If it was the same, then all Pokemon would like it. Same for Luxury Ball. It makes a Pokemon happier, so it must be more pleasant inside.
As far as any "official" statements go, we've got nothing from GameFreak. HAL Laboratory, who work with GameFreak often, did state in Poke Ball's description in Smash Bros that it has an ideal environment for a Pokemon inside. That's the only time this subject was directly addressed. Taking all of this into consideration, I'd say ideal environment is the one that makes the most sense. There's absolutely nothing that goes against this theory and there are many thing things pointing towards it. Unless anything comes that contradicts this theory, I'd say it's same to assume it is the correct one. Even the original concept of Poke Ball implies Pokemon are just shrunken, not made some data, and with the introduction of different types of Poke Balls in Gen 2, the "ideal environment" part fits in.
