The Super Dragon Balls are the original Dragon Balls created by the Dragon God Zalama. They are first mentioned in Dragon Ball Super chapter 3, though Champa and Vados were seen searching for them in chapter 2. They are first seen in chapter 6.
Overview
The Super Dragon Balls, also known as "Wish Orbs", are perfect spheres with a diameter of 371,962.2204 kilometers created by the Dragon God Zalama in the 41st year of the Divine Calendar. Universe 6 and Universe 7 together have a total of seven of these light-yellow balls, each of which contains one to seven red starfish marks. These red starfish marks are Zalama's own original design, which he obtained a patent for during the 42nd year of the Divine Calendar. This design utilizes refraction to ensure that the marks remain starfish-shaped no matter from which angle they are viewed. If you assemble all seven spheres scattered throughout the two universes and intone in the language of the gods the incantation "Come forth, God of Dragons, and grant my wish, chonmage!" then the God of Dragons will appear and grant any wish, but only one. Once that wish is granted, they will once again scatter throughout the two universes and silently await the time when they shall be gathered up again by someone with an unobtainable dream.

The corny joke with the summoning phrase for making a wish with the Super Dragon Balls is that it substitutes 丁髷 (chonmage), meaning the "topknot" in old-fashioned Japanese hairdos, for the word 頂戴 (chōdai), or "please". The summoning phrase is instead kanaete-chonmage in Japanese, vaguely similar to saying "pretty peas" instead of "pretty please".
