The Evoke Hysteria is here to cause a ruckus. This pearlized powerhouse wasn’t just added to the line—it was turned loose. Designed to create a devastating yet controllable angle on moderately heavy oil, this asymmetric beast fuses the game-changing Overload core with the most adaptable Propulsion cover yet: Propulsion MXV.  What does that mean for you? Simple. The Evoke Hysteria isn’t just angular—it’s a weapon that fits more playing styles and lane conditions than ever before.

The insanely tunable Overload core is a game-changer. The most versatile asymmetric core in the MOTIV line, it delivers a deadly combo of low RG, moderate differential, and intermediate diff. It slots perfectly between the Jackal series and the medium oil Pride line—powerful yet controllable.

Here’s the kicker: Ball drillers can fine-tune the differential on this core to fit your game.  The Overload Core features the unique ability to lower the differential for less flare, perfect for rev-dominant players who need control. Or crank it up by nearly 20% to unlock massive flare and turn the Evoke into a heavy oil destroyer.

Propulsion MXV = Maximum Versatility.  The Propulsion coverstock is already legendary for explosive backend motion in balls like the Primal Rage Evolution, but there are times that a more versatile and controllable pearl coverstock is necessary. Enter the Propulsion MXV Pearl—built for maximum versatility.

This next-level cover digs in for added traction in oil while delivering a slightly slower response to friction for a more controlled backend reaction. Finished at 4000 grit LSS, it’s a benchmark starting point for ultimate customization. Want more length and backend pop? Add polish. Need earlier read and smoother motion? Scuff it up. The choice is yours.

Bottom Line: The Evoke Hysteria is your unfair advantage. Dial it in to dominate the lanes and shatter all limits!

When to Use 

Speed Dominant - Bowlers with lower rev rates and/or higher speed will likely be able to use the Evoke Hysteria as a league ball when they want more angle than the standard benchmark piece.  The Evoke Hysteria will handle typical house shot volume for many speed dominant bowlers while providing enough down lane pop to carry those pesky corners.   

Balanced Bowlers - For Balanced bowlers, the Evoke Hysteria is a multi-tool to keep in the bag for tournaments and leagues alike.  WIth a core that can be drilled for many uses and a cover that can easily be tweaked to respond to friction anywhere from moderate to fast, the Evoke Hysteria can serve many purposes for balanced bowlers looking for a medium to medium-heavy oil ball. 

Rev Dominant - For bowlers with exceptionally low ball speed and/or high rev rates, the Evoke is a nice option for a heavy oil pearl with the control sought for such patterns, to a medium oil pearl.  This wide range of options comes from the ability to lower the differential and even shine the coverstock if necessary.

    Ruthless!!

    Had to post an update. We bowled our first round of playoffs Wednesday night. First series with the Hysteria and shot a 720 series, easily could have been higher if I did a better job at picking up the 10 pin spare. This is my first season back after taking 7 years off from bowling, little rusty taking down that 10 pin. I converted my whole arsenal to Motiv after I bought my first Motiv ball, the Primal Rage and my average went up 18 pins. Keep it up Motiv!!

    MOTIV EVOKE HYSTERIA

    EVOKE HYSTERIA

    A must have in the bag.

    Not your typical shiny piece. If you need to open the lanes and maintain backend motion then this is the ball for you. Where many shiny balls fail is hooking in oil but not anymore. The Evoke Hystria is not only smooth and predicatable off the friction but will shape in oil and continue through the pins

    This ball is literally INSANE

    Super Versatile

    Talk about a surprise! This one is fantastic right out of the box. I drilled mine 55-5 ½- 45 which gave me a very versatile ball. Even though the Hysteria is a pearl it can be used on the fresh and blends out the pattern well. The only time I have had the ball struggle is when I had to get super deep on a beat up cliffed house shot. The Hysteria wasn’t quite enough to read the middle and a bit too bouncy for the dry to the right. The Evoke Hysteria is my favorite release of 2025 so far. Just as advertised the Hysteria is the Swiss army knife of a bowling ball which is rare in today’s game. Well done, Motiv

    The Juice Monster

    As soon as I threw my first shot with this ball, I knew it was a one-of-a-kind and I love it, i won't call this ball by its name anymore, it is just known as the Juice Monster to me. It hooks a ton, as soon as that thing touches the dry it takes off like it is a fighter jet. I can throw this ball so many ways, riding the gutter, sending it from over the left gutter, light oil, heavy oil, and anywhere else, you name it. I love it and would recommend to a friend or even someone who ain't a friend. Everyone deserves a ball like this.
