As he pulled his arm back to launch the ball, Silas saw something quite startling. The red shell he had aimed for shifted, startled by the blow from his pokemon and revealed the glossy purple carapace of the pokemon it had been sheltering. He thought for a moment it was an Illumise, as Volbeat and Illumise were the same species just sexually dimorphic. However, the shell was the wrong shape, the hue just a little off. The two pokemon sprang apart, clearly looking to flee at the soonest opportunity, but it was too late, violet eyes drank in the truth. That was a shiny Volbeat. Its little friend had been sheltering it, but had fled like a coward at the soonest hint of a fight.
The shiny volbeat looked around frantically and weakly made his tail glow, maybe trying to bolster his strength before his foe could do more damage. But it was too late. Silas had spotted him and that ball was thrown, its path clear an undeniable as it shot across the grassy distance between them. He buzzed a bit, startled expression wide and emotive, before he tried to fly after his friend. But his attempts were thwarted by Silas with one easy throw.
The ball closed in, smacking the volbeat on his back, the capsule bursting open in a flash of light shaped like a net. The netting expanded to cover the volbeat entirely before closing in, totally ensnaring the bug with no escape to be found. It flailed and floundered for an instant before vanish, being drawn into the capsule in a blink.
Hitting the ground, the ball began to wobble back and forth violently. Desperately. Escape, escape! Alas, there was none to be found. The ball wriggled harder and harder before the fight slowed to a weak little wobble. It...it couldn't escape. It was caught. Conquered. Trapped by the man with cold violet eyes and a sinister smile.
"Well, that was a good find, Weaver," he told the spider. "Perhaps your eyes are keener than mine. I had no idea you had found a shiny volbeat." The spinarak looked a little nervous and confused but didn't protest. He just watched his trainer walk up to the ball and pick it up. He tossed it twice in hand before pocketing it. "Now let us see. There is short grass over there with pitiful little caterpie and weedle. Perhaps one of them would make for good practice for that shellos that wandered into my trap in Violet." He had no real plans of keeping the thing but...might as well see what it could do.
He let the shellos out of its ball and pointed, "USe water gun on one of those weedle." And then, just for giggles, he would throw a ball at it.
