Pokemon Go: How many Gifts can you open a day?

Last Updated on: 11th November 2021, 09:47 am

In Pokemon Go, gifts are very useful items, particularly for rural players with lower item supplies, but how many Gifts can you open a day?

This is a pretty important question for some players, as gifts may well be the only source of items they get, or perhaps the only useful source – Pokestops can be irritatingly cheap with items after all.

How many Gifts can you open a day in Pokemon Go?

By default, Trainers in Pokemon Go can open 20 gifts a day. This has been temporarily increased during the effects of Covid-19 to support remote play more, allowing Trainers to open up to 30 gifts a day instead. It’s a fairly simple answer, but “how many Gifts can you open a day in Pokemon Go?” is also a fairly simple question.

Be aware the gifts you obtain from PokeStops are not items you can open yourself. You have to send those to your friends in Pokemon Go, and those same friends can send gifts back to you.

If you use a service such as PokemonGoFriends, as I’ve suggested here, you can find other active players looking to exchange gift for gift which will help you build up items from them each day – this makes for an excellent source of good items such as Ultra balls or Max potions, as gifts seem to scale with level.

Gifts may contain a variety of items, from basic Potions and PokeBalls to the top of the line versions like Ultra balls and Max Potions. They are most likely the best source of advanced items for any player in the game unless you happen to have unlimited money in real life to spend on constantly restocking PokeCoins and buying items from the store, anyway.

As a heads up, the rewards from gifts also seem to scale up in strength alongside your level – so if you’re stuck getting Pokeballs early on, try not to give up on them too fast, they will be a huge boon later.

Anything else?

Gifts really are this simple, in all honesty. You find them by spinning PokeStops and then you send them to your friends. Friends on Pokemon Go will send gifts back, and then you both get items. Gifts are a great reason to consider expanding your Pokemon Go friends list, if you don’t already have enough of them a day.
