Starting October 15, 2025, Trainers can take their adventure to greater heights in Pokémon GO with a level cap increase from 50 to 80. With the new leveling system, Trainers will level up more frequently and receive rewards along the way. When the updated system takes effect, all Trainers at level 23 or higher will gain at least one level. The XP requirements to reach the next level may change. Additionally, Level-Up Research tasks previously required to climb from levels 41 to 50 will be replaced with Level-Up Research tasks between levels 71 to 80. At level 70 and higher, Trainers will have an increased chance of becoming Lucky Friends with other Trainers once they’ve become Best Friends.
The amount of XP required to level up has changed under the new system. Here’s the total amount of XP Trainers will need to reach certain levels.

Level 10: 48,000 XP

Level 20: 258,000 XP

In addition to blinging out your avatar, other rewards for leveling up include increased storage for Pokémon, items, Gifts, and Postcards. Like with the avatar items, if a Trainer has already passed those levels, they’ll receive those rewards automatically.
When Trainers level 15 and higher log in each day, a Daily Adventure Egg will be automatically placed in a special Incubator. After exploring 1 km with the Daily Adventure Egg, a Pokémon will hatch and the Trainer will receive 10,000 XP. Trainers can only have one Daily Adventure Egg at a time, and this Egg will not count toward their Egg storage.
Take your game to the next level, Trainers!
