Apricorn Balls, or Apriballs for short, make a return in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet and can sometimes be purchased as the featured item in Porto Marinada auctions! They can also be won as a reward from the Academy Ace Tournament.
List of Apriballs (Apricorn Balls)
and How to Get
There is a very high chance of obtaining any Poke Ball if the Poke Ball Lotto activates randomly as you do print jobs for the Item Printer.
Note that the Item Printer is available only on The Indigo Disk DLC.
Poke Ball Lotto Odds and How to Unlock
The Item Printer was found to generate items the second you press the "I want to print something" text. This can then be exploited by changing your Nintendo Switch's internal time and obtain prints that are consistent and can be replicated by anyone.
