    Do you think a wild Pokémon ever evolved into a larger form while in a confined space and couldn’t get out and slowly starved to death?

      Well since pokemon legends arceus tells us that the shrinking to go in the pokeball is done by the pokemon and not some technoscience in the ball, they could just change size and get out

        Wait.

        what.

        So… any pokemon, at any time, could just… decide to become ant man, and become the size of a lepton?

        … could they just like sneeze one day and accidentally become the size of the Milky Way?

          Said game also includes a mechanic where you can get big versions of the pokemon and there is gigantimax in sword and shield where they become kaiju sized

          It’s more of a stasis thing. The old pokeballs trigger that. Modern ones digitize pokemon into information though.

      I was about ti say they could be called back into their Poké Balls, but then I saw the “wild” part.

      Eh, maybe catch them with a high catch rate ball.
