There is something of a catch, however, as Master Balls are traditionally incredibly rare, and this is once again the case in Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl....

Pokemon Fan Has Great Idea To Make Releasing Pokemon Into The Wild More Interesting

The act of releasing Pokemon has remained unchanged since the franchise’s inception, with Pokemon simply vanishing into thin air when released by their trainer. There has never been an official way to recover released Pokemon, and this has led to many instances of players losing their cherished companions upon accidentally hitting the wrong button or giving their device to a sibling. While the more seasoned players know that one can simply restart their console in order to recover their Pokemon, so long as they have not saved since releasing it, the Pokemon franchise is yet to make any accommodations, with the latest Pokemon Scarlet and Violet trailers not hinting at a related mechanic....

Instead, the Pokemon anime’s famous Orange Islands arc can stake a claim to that accolade.
