How to increase Pokemon Storage in Pokemon GO

Storage and coins (Image via Niantic)

To expand Pokemon Storage in GO, trainers must purchase storage spaces from the in-game shop. For every 200 Pokecoins spent, players get 50 spaces.

Beginners with 300 Pokemon Storage must use 40,800 coins to reach the new cap limit. Spending real money for Coins makes it easier to expand the storage capacity.

However, there is a method to get them for free: by guarding a Gym with a Pokemon of your own. One can collect up to 50 coins per day, earning one coin every 10 minutes, but if the guarding critter faces defeat on the same day, they won't make anything.

The cost of Pokecoins varies according to the geographical areas. While some trainers have to pay a little more to get the same amount of in-game currency, others get it at relatively low rates. Read this guide on how to buy coins at a discounted price.
