Engross yourself in this captivating adventure along with the millions who have stepped into the whimsical realm of Pokemon trainers. As a player, you’ll be tasked with discovering, capturing, training, and battling with Pokemon as they appear within your real-world surroundings.
Acquiring Pokemon GO Currency: PokeCoins
Pokemon GO introduces its own in-game economy with PokeCoins – the currency that enables you to purchase a plethora of items and enhancements from the in-game shop. Whether it's Limited Time Packs, Egg Incubators, Premium Raid Passes, or Poke Balls, knowing how to obtain PokeCoins is essential. You can earn them by defending gyms, with a cap of 6 PokeCoins per hour and a daily maximum of 50 PokeCoins. Alternately, purchase PokeCoins by adding funds to your Google Play or Apple ID account. A convenient method is through online purchases of App Store & iTunes or Google Play Store gift cards.
Embarking on Your Pokemon GO Journey
Get started by downloading the Pokemon GO app on your iOS or Android device from the App Store or Google Play Store respectively. The game is free, but ingame upgrades can be bought using PokeCoins. Buying PokeCoins is a breeze with Google Play or App Store & iTunes gift cards, depending on which device you're using.
