Seems kind of strange to me that you can't see the condition of the ball before you start the game. You should be able to see what kind of condition your ball is in from looking at your equipment.

Very good point Kaslo
... or just make sure you've got a "back up" sleeve of your favorite balls stashed with your other equipment. Then they will appear when your current ball runs out of juice.
