Your first ball will be when you go back to Elm's Lab, (after seeing your rival) where his lowest assistant will walk over to you (like he did when you got a potion from him) and give you a Poké Ball. At one point the Radio Tower will be invaded by Team Rocket and you will have to beat all the Rocket people. After this, Elm will call you (Please confirm this, because it might be after you beat Claire, the last Johto Gym Leader) and say something and tells you to come to his lab. When you talk to Elm, he will give you the Master Ball.
