Pokémon GO has officially increased both Pokémon and item storage limits, giving trainers more room than ever to prepare for major events like the upcoming Global GO Fest 2025. As the game continues to grow and introduce more Pokémon, features, and items, storage capacity has been a hot topic among players—especially veteran trainers who have maxed out their space. Now, Niantic is delivering a much-needed boost.
📦 New Storage Limits for Pokémon and Items
As announced via Pokémon GO’s official X (Twitter) account, players can now expand their:
-
Pokémon Storage up to 10,500 slots
-
Item Storage up to 9,500 slots
This marks a +700 slot increase for both categories compared to the previous limit.
🛒 How to Upgrade Your Storage
Just like before, increasing your storage isn’t automatic or free. Players will need to purchase upgrades via:
-
The in-game shop
-
The Pokémon GO Web Store
Each upgrade costs 200 PokéCoins for 50 additional slots. That means maxing out storage will require a sizable number of PokéCoins or real-money purchases.
🎉 Why Now? GO Fest 2025 Is Coming
The timing couldn’t be better. With the Global Pokémon GO Fest arriving in late June, players can expect a flood of rare, Shiny, and event-exclusive Pokémon. Item usage will also spike, with lures, Poké Balls, berries, and incubators in high demand.
These events often overwhelm unprepared inventories, making this new limit expansion a practical solution to support:
-
Hardcore collectors
-
Event grinders
-
Shiny hunters
-
PvP and PvE battlers
This Pokémon GO storage limit increase is more than just a numbers tweak—it’s a clear sign that Niantic is listening to the community ahead of a major in-game event. While the cost to expand remains the same, the benefit of added space during a jam-packed GO Fest season is well worth the investment for many players.
