[Pokemon] Why can't I just pick up pokeballs that failed to catch a pokemon and reuse them? What happens to the failed pokeballs?

When the Pokémon escapes, you see what happens to them. They explode. Whatever the binding mechanism is that allows you to stuff, say, a 30-foot-long snake made out of granite into a hollow baseball just fails and the ball falls apart/disintegrates.
