Attention, Trainers! On Nov. 22 (Friday), Niantic Labs released an update revealing it has expanded Pokémon's maximum storage capacity.
What's New With Pokémon GO
In case you missed it, Pokémon GO recently took to Twitter to announce that they're upping the game's storage limits. Here are the details of the update:
- Trainers can now store up to 3,000 Pokémons.
- Trainers can now store up to 2,500 items.
Trainers flocked to Pokémon GO's official Twitter account to share their reactions to the news. For users @MYSTIC7 and @Jokerjk23, the update makes the perfect holiday gift.
User @ItsFleeceKing expressed his delight with the recent update and shared his previous experience about having to delete so many Pokémon due to lack of storage.
One user even formed a conspiracy theory. According to @Merennulli, someone from the Niantic Labs is clearly working with Team Rocket for their heist.
For many Pokémon fans and Trainers, though, this storage update is just in time for the upcoming Community Day this December. Since Niantic Labs recently announced that they are releasing all exclusive moves and species featured throughout the year, having additional storage means Trainers can stock up on shinies and more.
How to Enjoy the Latest Pokémon GO Update
Users can easily download the Pokémon GO update through Google Play or the App Store. The update is free, but you'll have to shell out 200 PokéCoins to unlock 50 additional spaces. The game allows you to earn 50 coins a day, so you'll have four days to stock up on enough PokéCoins to increase your storage by 50.
If you are like most Trainers who plan to catch 'em all at the Community Day this December, we suggest you unlock as many storage spaces as you can. It's absolutely a great way to end the year!

Community Days are part of Niantic Labs' series of real-life gatherings of players. Held monthly, it draws worldwide players together to capture certain or rare Pokémon species in large numbers, earn in-game bonuses, and take advantage of exclusive moves.
