Just like in real life, gifting plays a huge role in reaching certain friendship goals in Pokémon Go. This year, I have set out to send and receive as many gifts as possible to grow friendship levels in the game 😊.
However, I first needed clarity on the gifting limits so as to maximize all the opportunities.
Unfortunately, I could only send one gift per day. If you are on a similar endeavor and would like to know the number of gifts you can receive or hold in a day, read on to learn this and much more.
How Many Gifts Can You Receive In A Day In Pokémon?
The number of gifts you can receive in a day is not predefined. However, you can only hold up to 10 gifts in your bag at a time.
You earn a few points every time you open or send a gift. If you think it is unfair for Pokémon Go to put a limit on gifting, imagine if you could open and send an infinite number of gifts 🎁.
It would be too easy, and the game would eventually bore you.
The limit protects players from unhealthy competition through unlimited gift exchange. It provides a balanced playing environment where all players have equal chances.
Besides, limiting the number of gifts players receive allows for optimal functioning of the game. Excessive exchanges may overwhelm the program, resulting in hitches.
How Many Gifts Can You Hold In Your Bag At A Time In Pokémon?
You can hold a maximum of 10 gifts in your bag at once. However, you can handle much more gifts within a day. Once you collect a gift from Pokéstop, you cannot open it yourself.
Instead, you have to send it to a friend to open it. You can open up to 20 gifts from your friends in a day. Any more gifts that you have will remain on your friend list to await opening the next day.
You also have a limit of sending up to 100 gifts daily. The ten-gift limit is set to establish a balance in the game.
Can You Maximize the Number Of Gifts You Send Or Receive Per Day In Pokémon?
Yes, you can maximize the number of gifts you send and receive in Pokémon to receive a friendship XP. Your friends should open a gift from you every day 😇.
First, you need to spin the Pokéstops frequently to collect gifts. Send as many gifts as possible to your friends; you have a limit of 100 but can only send 1 per friend.
You should also be dedicated to opening 20 gifts in a day.
When sending gifts, prioritize the people who have not sent you a gift yet 😄. This will help build new friendships and trigger them to send you back gifts.
Next, scroll through your friends lists and open gifts from friends who do not have a blue halo.
Then, lastly, if you have extra gifts and time, you may send a few gifts to friends with a blue halo. These limits reset every day at midnight, so always ensure you exploit your options before then.
How Many Gifts Can Your Buddy Give You in Pokémon Go?
Your Pokémon buddy can bring you up to 2 gifts in a day. Usually, they collect these gifts from the Pokéstop and bring them to you.
After your buddy reaches a certain level, they can also bring you a souvenir. However, these souvenirs are collectibles.
What Is The Daily Limit of Gifts From Pokéstops?
There is no daily limit to the number of gifts you can collect from the Pokéstop daily. However, you are limited to opening a maximum of 20 gifts daily and sending up to 100 to your friends daily.
You can use these limits to determine the number of daily gifts you want to collect.
The table below summarizes the number of daily gifts you can receive, send, or hold.
