In Pokémon GO, the Storage Plus feature has increased the limit for the maximum number of stored Pokémon. The shop has a bundle for this. We will show you what it brings.
What’s new? On the evening of June 4, 2021, Niantic announced on social media that trainers can now increase their Pokémon storage to 4,500. Previously, the limit was 4,000. You now have the option to unlock 500 more spaces.
With a special offer in the shop, you can temporarily upgrade your storage at a lower price.
Storage Plus available as a bundle – is it worth it?
This is in the shop: If you now open the shop in Pokémon GO, you will find several boxes on sale. They all have different coin prices. One of them costs 200 coins (a little under 2 euros) and is called “Event Box”. If you check the contents of the box, you will find two Pokémon Storage Plus in it.
Is it worth it? If you are planning to buy Storage Plus anyway, then this bundle is definitely worth it for you. You get 2 storage upgrades for the price of one. Usually, a Pokémon Storage Plus in the shop of Pokémon GO costs 200 coins. So when you buy the bundle, you get additional storage.
If you don’t plan to expand your collection because you are fine with your current space, then there’s no need to buy here.
You should know: This box containing two Pokémon Storage Plus can only be purchased once. After your first purchase, the bundle will disappear from the shop.
One Pokémon Storage Plus increases the storage limit by 50 Pokémon. Therefore, you will gain an additional 100 slots for your caught creatures from the box.
The special box for 200 coins will remain in the Pokémon GO shop until Monday evening, June 7, at 10:00 PM. If you want to take advantage of the offer, you should hurry.
Perfect timing for many trainers
Why is this good now? On Sunday, June 6, Kaumalat is coming to the community. At events like this, it is common for trainers to catch hundreds of Pokémon. In our big guide to the Community Day with Kaumalat, we recommend you to gather accordingly many Poké Balls.
However, if you have a relatively small storage in Pokémon GO, you will have to send Pokémon during the event from time to time. And that takes time when you could be catching new Pokémon.
That this bundle is available just before the start of the big event is convenient for some trainers. You can read about it on reddit as well.
Player Jalieus writes (via reddit.com): “Exactly right for the Kaumalat CD [Community Day]. I was worried that I would have to spend hours organizing my collection. I can now postpone that to 2022!” However, other players remind the trainer that this year the GO Fest 2021 is also taking place and there will be a lot to catch again.
vonggyy writes on reddit (via reddit.com): “I already wanted to buy storage with the limited number of coins that I had. I’m so glad I had forgotten about it until now.”
What do you think of the increase in Pokémon space and the corresponding bundle? Were you already at the limit and could finally increase, or do you carry less than 4,000 Pokémon with you?
In the coming weeks, Niantic plans several events that will start in the game. To keep track, we have listed all events in Pokémon GO in June 2021 for you.
