You cannot get Dream Balls from the Delibird Presents store like other Pokéball variants but instead must get them at the Porto Marinada Market. Dream Balls will be available randomly, but you will first need to defeat the Cascarrafa Gym Challenge and register 360 Pokémon in your Pokédex. Once you do this, Dream Balls will start appearing in the auction house in Porto Marinada Market. You will need to successfully place the highest bid on the item you want to purchase it.
