I had a dream just now that I was in the pokemon world and was at the trainer school, and they were explaining to me why they're round.

Plus, they can be sold in a gumball machine when they're round.

Ergnomic. They used to be square, but Pokemon handlers kept taking disability due to carpel tunnel and other ergonomic injuries. They thus changed the shape.

When (scientist) discovered the sphere, he made it red and white for show, thus creating the pokeball. Also can you imagine a cube voltorb? voltcube? (orb-cube-get it?)

So that they roll!

So that there aren't any sharp edges. Also so that there can be less material used.
