Do you think they will up the amount of Pokémon storage any time soon?

Am kind of a hoarder and am really having problems making space for new additions and making space as I catch is starting to get old quick. 90% of all of them are 89iv or better. The ones that aren't have good powers and I use for prestiging. I try and keep a high iv of each that is male and female now since they started that. Also have held on to high iv ones with legacy moves. Anyone else having this problem? And what did you decide to let go and transfer first? Was really hoping they would increase capacity with next release but now worry that might not happen. Just let me know your thoughts if you get a chance

Being able to buy as much storage as we want would be useful.
I think their problem is that now players will just use free coins to buy the storage so they won't get it funded with actual money - if it could be done without using free coins, I can't understand why they wouldn't let us throw as much money as we want to at them.

I would also appreciate a higher cap on space no matter how it is offered.

The only thing that it would cost them is increased server space as the mons seem to be held outside of the device currently. So asking for real money for the purchase isn't unreasonable imo.

Yes, im having the same problem. I collect all best attack and defense moveset from each pokemon (even Pidgey, Bulbassaur...). Im always at 970-990 pokemons.

In other news, Pokemon Go - once the most profitable app in the app store has plummeted in profits when they gave each players additional pokemon storage and item storage for free! And daily incubators!

It doesn't make any sense for them to do this sorry.

Not exactly sure how this applies to my question. Have invested good amout of money on incubators over time and look at increasing storage as a protection of investment. Obviously don't mind paying for it. Just makes it feel more wasted when your transferring good Pokémon that you don't want to just to beable to play the game and have room to catch more. And have received 100 coins from gyms everyday except 1 since August with pretty much daily battling just to get 10...still not much if you want to incubate a lot of eggs....think the free thing gets overblown...feel everyone on here has prolly dropped more than they'd want to admit. Not one of those people who wants anything for free in life and kind of despise the people that do so how does adding more storage for purchase affect profits?

Personally I think they fear Spoofers getting possibly even more monstrous Pokémon lol or people saving 3-400+ Dratinis or Larvitars waiting for double candy. They'll prob up the 1K limit when gen 3 drops.

If you were a spoofer would 1,000 storage really be a problem...just feel you wouldn't be worried about transferring all the ones that have put in personal investment in reguardless of gym ability that still have meaning to you....feel they could still have plenty of room for a couple hundred 100iv dragonites...besides new Pokémon are adding many different variables for each as far as legacy movesets ( which is one of my favorite things in the game, just the idea that you can never catch again), sex, new moves, etc....just kind of thought more storage would make sense

Totally agree. I don't battle gyms that much and collect minimal free coins; and yet, I have hatched over 3000 eggs. One can imagine how much I have spent on incubators.

I like to collect fully evolved mons on every moveset. Unfortunately, I need to abandon the whole plan because of space shortages. I really don't mind paying real money to buy certain items, including but not limiting to storage space.

Once trading is implemented one could make fake accounts for free 250 mon cold storage..

Where do you keep finding so many 89+ IVs anyway? Hatching 9 eggs at a time or something, huh? PoGo is a game of patience more than anything, maybe chill a bit and weed out stuff you don't personally like. For example, I really hate how Raticate looks and I only have one as a prestiger and will maybe send it away when I'm out of revives. I had a 100% Beedrill with Aerial Ace but got rid of it recently 'cos what the hell, a crap 'mon with no stab. My storage is currently 450 and most of it has 'mons waiting for evolution or spam fodder (more often than not I check the stats of two-stage ones, what if it ends up with a good moveset).

Even if you don't use it, are you against anyone else being able to buy it?

You're nuts if you need more than a 1,000, lol.
