While Pokemon GO has thousands of Pokemon in their database just waiting for fans to catch, there are unfortunately limits to everything. With the game having so many raids, community days, and other events, Trainers stack up on Pokemon fairly quickly, which doesn't leave them much of a choice but to be faced with a full inventory of Pokemon and nowhere to place new ones they want.
Having a limit to how many Pokemon a Trainer can have at once has been something players have fought in many of the franchise's games, and that didn't change with the addition of Pokemon GO on their mobile devices. Even the Pokemon HOME application, which is used as a safe haven for all player's beloved Pokemon to be transferred to, has a storage limit. What is the maximum limit of Pokemon that can be held in Pokemon GO?
What is the Max Storage Limit in Pokemon GO?
Pokemon GO has a limit of only allowing a Trainer to hold up to 300 Pokemon at a time. However, players can upgrade their storage. In the in-game store, players can purchase what is called a "Pokemon Storage Upgrade," which will increase the max by 50 and will allow trainers to upgrade to a maximum of 6,800 but they won't be able to go any higher than that.
For those who are concerned about running out of storage, Pokemon HOME allows trainers to transfer their Pokemon from one game to another or just leave them in Pokemon HOME for safekeeping. With an upgraded membership plan, players can store 6,000 in there as well with Premium.
If players have some Pokemon they don't care about keeping, they can also transfer them to the professor, which will give them some candy to then evolve or level up their Pokemon as well, which is a win-win. Players also have the option of trading their Pokemon for ones they don't have, whether that be through Pokemon GO itself or trading in Pokemon HOME with people all over the world.
Sadly, all Pokemon franchise games and applications do require players to have a limit on how many Pokemon they can have, but the maximums they give are pretty large enough that trainers won't need to stress all that much in order to keep their favorite Pokemon and have plenty of room for more.
Pokemon GO is available on mobile devices.
