Like any free-to-play game, Pokémon GO has in-app purchases. From Poké Balls to new Egg Incubators, you have to pay for a lot of in-game items, and that's done with PokéCoins. In this tutorial, you will see how to earn more PokéCoins and evolve in the game without having to spend real money.

There is only one way to earn PokéCoins currently:
– Defend Gyms
Upon reaching level 5, gyms are unlocked. When capturing a gym, you can place a pokemon there to defend the place. For each victory of that pokémon, you earn PokéCoins. But you don't have to be the Gym Leader to earn PokéCoins. You can place a pokémon to help a gym on your team and earn PokéCoins too.
Daily each Parked Pokemon will reward you with 10 PokeCoins and 500 Stardust.
