Pokémon Scarlet and Violet – How to Get More Boxes
With each installment to the long-standing Pokémon franchise, more monsters are added to the in-game Pokédex, which has grown substantially in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. While the Paldea region is home to a long list of all-new Pokémon to catch, we now have access to Pokémon HOME, allowing us to transfer our partners from previous titles to the new entries. After breeding Pokémon and completing the Pokédex, however, many trainers have filled their PC boxes. So, how do you get more boxes in Scarlet and Violet?
The answer is much simpler than you’d think. Here’s what you need to know to add more boxes to your PC and up your storage space in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
How to Get 32 PC Boxes in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

You’ll need to place Pokémon in each of the eight original PC boxes to get more boxes in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. To be clear, you don’t need to fill every box to do this. Rather, you’ll just need to place at least one Pokémon in each, then close out the PC and return to find more have been added. This can be done until you reach a total of 32 storage boxes, providing a capacity of a whopping 960 Pokémon.
This may seem like an inordinate amount of storage space at first, given that each box holds 30 Pokémon. However, many trainers utilize the PC to hold each of the Pokémon they’ve caught to fill out their Pokédex while others need to box duplicates of the monsters they’ve bred. In any case, it’s not unheard of to run out of storage boxes entirely. At that point, releasing Pokémon is a viable option to make room.
Whatever the circumstances, you’ll probably need to get some Spring cleaning done in your PC if you hope to transfer Pokémon from previous titles and save files now that Pokémon HOME is compatible with Scarlet and Violet. Of course, this welcome addition also allows you to move Pokémon from your in-game PC to the app, saving you from turning out the Pokémon you’ve caught and bred.
