How to Obtain More Pokeballs in Pokemon GO

Pokemon GO offers several opportunities to collect Pokeballs by simply playing the game. Here’s where you should look:

  1. Open your Daily Box and or purchase from the in-game store.

    Every single day, you can open a free box of goodies for simply launching the game and visiting the in-game store. It’s an easy way to net a few Pokeballs, as well as a Potion. Of course, you can also purchase Pokeballs with PokeCoins, a premium currency.

  2. Visit Gyms and PokeStops.

    Both Gyms and PokeStops are great ways to obtain Pokeballs. Stopping by either or both, and giving them a spin will net you an assortment of items, with Pokeballs being fairly common. However, don’t camp at one area as eventually you’ll earn nothing, so make it a point to stop at multiple areas.

  4. Don’t skip Leg Day.
