Clearing Pokémon Storage has NEVER BEEN EASIER...

Daxi working harder than any pogo content creator. How has Niantic not sponsored you at an event? Thanks for everything you do for us 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Because he’s promoting not buying more storage

The best way to manage your storage is to buy more. 👍👍👍

[@ballerballeryea]

Or stop playing so you don't worry about digital storage in a game.

[@Liza_F2P]

A good idea would be instead of saving the search function is to use the search function to filter and save the pokemon in tags since tags have no limit

[@budmike6363]

The only problem with that is you have to copy the search again and update the tag before every mass trade/transfer

[@levionlife]

If you add !# to any search thread it will filter out any and all pokemon you have tagged which helps me immensely!

[@pranavkarmarkar]

Tags do have a limit of 100, but I get what you mean. Good tip!

[@bennykoh]

@@levionlife oh i did not know this. really helps as i have many tags!

[@ThiccySlim]

If I could make a suggestion, since you can only save 12 searches, you could condense all the meta Pokémon into one search thread, after which you could periodically tag them all as “meta” then search meta&’type’ to refine the search. I might do this by hand, but would be a good add to your sheet! Great vid

[@clawluca8848]

i tried doing that by hand, but somehow it didnt work for me. even when i try to combine 2 elements' filters, PoGo showed 0 Options. Idk what i did wrong

[@ultralysp]

A few pointers: • "Mark pokémon to not delete" could be expanded in next video to "how to use tags effectively" because the power of negating a tag name (or even tag prefix if you group similar tags with one) is incredible to exclude important pokémon from being deleted. • Pokémon left for trades: distance, mirrors, etc. • How to combine all the aforementioned stuff (in your vid and here) with keeping actual collections in your bag. • How to set up keyboard autocomplete on both iOS and Android to actually be able to use more than 12 saved searches

[@NintendoMan100]

4:57 To exclude certain Pokémon from a search, you just have to add an exclamation point before the tag, like this "!xxxxx" (replace the "x" by what you want to exclude). For exemple, "cp-1500&age0-90&!Legendary&!Mythical&!Shadow", this will show all Pokémon AT 1500 CP or below, caught in the last 90 days, BUT exclude any Legendary, Mythical or Shadow from the result.

[@TheRealMrAndrew]

So glad you posted about this. With GoFest coming up, I’ve been clearing out storage. If anyone out there plans to be playing the full eight hours on one or both days, you’re going to want room to catch at least 1000 mon in a single day without having to stop and transfer.

[@Crazycreeper349]

You forgot about the 12 candy evolution Pokémon, the new players seeing this not knowing about them will be wasting a perfect opportunity

[@hartlink]

Thanks! This is awesome and really helpful. I didn't know that you can save filters. Here's another tip for iOS users: you can save the search string by using keyboard shortcuts. To do this, go to Settings->General->Keyboard->Text Replacement. There, you can add a shortcut with the full search string, and when searching on the app, simply use the shortcut. I think Android may have a similar function as well.

[@redzebrastripes]

I have a similar strategy to this, where I tag all Pokémon that I’m keeping according to their use, then make a search thread showing all Pokémon without those tags. It takes a little while to start it, but it’s so easy to get rid of unneeded Pokémon once it’s in place.

[@balin1600]

you can search for !# and this filters out every tagged mon (! means exclude and # means tagged mon), bit easier than making a search thread.

[@redzebrastripes]

[@xbatman9649]

It’s also important to me to save all Pokémon that I want to trade an get XL candy for during seasons like this season. I did regret transferring some of my legendaries before when I could be trading them for guaranteed XLs right now. I save all snorlaxs, stunfisks, and excadrills as well; I’m working on maxing them out currently. I saved most of my axew too, making sure I trade all of them as well.

[@MrV902]

You can filter cp by adding the cp range as, for instance, cp1400-1500 or cp0-1500 if you're looking for something useful to power up.

[@Frygisk]

You can also write Cp-1500 for up to 1500 and cp1500- for everything 1500 and up

[@DjavoJ]

Yeah so just add ...,...,...&cp-1500 to cut out the mons above 1500.

[@chowly]

Thank you Daxi & team for all the hard work and effort put into creating this FREE resource!!

[@augustmavis5401]

At least for Apple devices, you can also use a "text replacement" instead of saving a search in the game

[@tshiris1708]

Yup great idea

[@crawlzzz]

Yeah you could do the same with Gboard on Android not a bad idea

[@chrishogan6273]

Of all the videos you've done, two of them have changed my pokemon go experience in a massive way. The first was the auto-trade in bulk tip which has been massively useful to say the least. After a quick use of these search threads, I have zero doubt that this video will be another of these game-changing marvels. Thank you so much for the great work!!

[@StrictLiability]

Auto trade in bulk?

[@levionlife]

Another helpful tip for search threads that i do is by adding “!#” which filters out pokemon you have tagged so if you have tags for pvp pokemon, Nundos, pokemon that you caught in special places and dont want to lose, ect. You can filter those out of the delete threads without having to look at each pokemon for sentimental/pvp value 😁

[@victoria31benson]

Brilliant video Daxi!! Great work & thank you to everyone who put work into this!!

[@raynaldojepe]

3:30 just type cp-1500 and you're done

[@ThatOddWaffle]

PokeDaxi coming in clutch once again. Thank you bro for this

[@Mamardashvili79]

I really like theese type of videos, but what I’m missing most is a complete guide for shadows: I mean, which are the best to keeps looking at different ivs, for example a shadow tyranitar 15-14-4 could be good to keep since it has high attack and defense for raids, but also a shadow sneasel 13-13-14 could be kept not purified even though it has not 15 attack. But I miss this for other pokemon like electabuzz or swinub and so on. Sorry for the long comment, I hope I was clear since my English is not well trained

[@pokebattler47]

wow one of my favorite videos by far. Was looking for a easier way to transfer. Thanks for taking the time for a very useful video. Can't wait to free up some storage for go fest!!

[@GordHolden]

Appreciate you greatly. Hoping for a search string that will identify pokemon that will not be useful to keep. Maybe will find that in the document. Cheers.

[@nguyenkh2002]

you can restrict cp by adding it in the end. ie: 379, 618, 560, 308, 279, 164, 709, 260&League CP. Great League (&CP-1500) Ultra League (&CP-2500). If you want to restrict Master League to Pokemon with CP over 2500 (&CP2500-). When searching cp, age or anything like that, putting the minus sign before means below and the minus sign after means above. For the mega and primal relevent pokemon and exclude shadow pokemon, include (&!shadow) at the end of the thread.

[@PristineQueen]

Ugh, thank you so much for this!! The only codes I knew were 1*, 2*, 3*, & 4*😂😢

[@benjohnson4042]

There is an Error in the Master League thread. "377-379" is the Regi's not the Metagross family. "374-376" is the Metagross family Very Helpful vid thank you! ❤

[@nashdashflash]

I have 5,450 Pokemon storage... Played a ton 2019-2021, and getting into optimizing for PVP, having to lookup the metas, then scan them for optimal IVs... So, instead I'd sit on them and let them take up massive storage space... Is what caused me to mostly quit for ~2 years or so. Just got back into it and I'm so overwhelmed trying to delete more than half my mons, but tags, saveable search strings, and your tips here help so much so thank you. Hopefully this is kind-of a one-time thing, then I'll try to stay on top of it better.

[@Boombasti_k]

you have to be very careful when using these search strings. with the delete string, all my "bad" Pokemon that I kept for xl trades would be gone.

[@chazclark86]

Wow man this is super usual, thank you to you and the team Daxi, one of the Pokémon Go GOATS!! 💙

[@lapislefty]

This video was a good idea and all but there is a huge factor I think Poke Daxi forgot to add in which is don't transfer pokemon you really care about and have value to you such as pokemon that are your favorite but are not meta. For example, I really like Mudkip but if I had one that was from someone special I wouldn't want to transfer that. I think if you make another video on this at some point at this. Btw I know mudkip is meta but if someones favorite pokemon wasn't meta relevant they might transfer it on accident.

[@TeamGoGarchompers]

Cp- will show you Pokémon that are the cp you inputted and lower (example, cp-1500 shows all Pokémon eligible for the great league)

[@111qqq8]

Sorry daxi but your head looks floating here I can't take it I'm loling too much 😂 Amazing tips tho. Thanks!

[@Crysal]

with the limit of 12 saved, most phone keyboards allow you to save in your clipboard, so you can have all of them saved in your clipboard history and then just tap the clipboard button to find them later

[@HighQualityLeftover]

Alternative - This method can also be added into the search threads, which makes the search threads way more safe. Since none of these search terms work when you actually want to keep PVP pokemon (why? Because "meta relevance" means nothing in pvp, so the list is kinda useless. The search thread also assumes that you are only running quite perfect IV pokemon... which no one does.) : Do a purge once. Transfer ALL pokemon you dont want to keep: tagg them all with something. I called mine "purge survivors" or short "ps". Congrats from here on out you never have to look at the pokemon you tagged ever again. When you notice your storage is getting full, search for "!ps" or however you called your tag. ! means not, so it displays all pokemon not in the tag. From here on out you can blindly transfer whatever you caught, or look if what you caught is better then what you had, if not: transfer. Fast catch method, no problem. All newly caught pokemon are untagged. I keep the highest IV pokemon, a little cup, great and ultra league version of everything - no search string ever helped me, but this? This is the only way to do it without running the risk of accidentally transfering that #1 Marril you caught and didnt evolve yet.

[@aktiv8301]

This is so useful, thank you! What do you recommend doing with community day shinies and event/costume pokemon? They take up so much of my storage.

Good question! Also those reallyyy low CP/IV shinies

[@meiken417]

Pokemon home! Or trade to a friend or a second account

[@sammysams6996]

@Meiken Ok, maybe trading with a second account works, because where I live there aren't many Pokémon Go players to trade with. Thx for the help :)

[@lastlast2078]

Try save them for 1 year and trade them with someone doing the same after they reach 1 year. If you're organised and play every CD you can trade a CD shiny every day with increased lucky chance.

[@graffix9879]

[@aaronmorgan9347]

If you’re like me you’ve already favorited a bunch of stuff that isn’t included in these search strings. What I’ve done is searched with the strings, select all, make tag META and tag all selected with it. Then I do a search that has the !meta to remove all the metas, then I unfavorite everything listed.

[@tannerhall8337]

To find Pokémon that are below 1500 just search “cp -1500”

"CP-1500&" in front of your Great League search string will cap CP at 1500 "CP1501-&CP-2500&" in front of Ultra Leage search String will show CP1501-2500 (you can change 1501 to whatever min for UL you need)

You should add the &!# (and not #) to your search string to filter out all the pokemon that have _any_ tag on them. That way any pokemon that has already been sorted into a tag won't show up.

[@lemonz1769]

I find it so much easier to just keep up with cleaning storage in realtime. About once per week, more or less depending on how much I’m catching, I just go through the most recent. Transfer junk, label to transfer later those I want 2x candy for, maybe label anything special that for GBL and that’s it. It’s so much more manageable to do it regularly.

This is is INSANELY helpful. Thank you. Truly. Quick Question about the Grass filter…I am getting Tyranitar evol line. 246-247-248 are the 3 evolutions and I see they are in the 242-254 range. Those are basically the legendaries + T-Tar line, oh and Blissey (teehee) from Johto. What is this supposed to filter for grass??

[@YungDebuff]

I think it's a typo, it's supposed to be 252-254, not 242-254, since 252-254 is Treecko -> Sceptile

[@katecole6237]

To search on cp ranges for pvp, you can use "cp-1500" for great league; "cp-2500" for ultra league, and "cp-500" for little cup. On the megas, can't you just add !shadow to eliminate shadow pokemon? There might be some shadow that you can purify for the mega but needing to purify a good IV shadow for the mega should be rare. Thanks for the vid. Looking forward to trying it. As always, PvP is always the hang up, since the meta DOES change so i hate xferring Pokemon with good PvP IVs.

[@matthewscholtz8502]

Hey man, can I ask when was the last time the list was updated

[@kathyagada505]

Here are 2 tips: #1 If you want to limit the cp of Pokémon for PVP, or in general. For example, you could put &cp-1500 for Great League and &cp-2500 for the Ultra League. #2 For filtering out Shadow Pokémon for the Mega Pokémon, you could do &!shadow or &!@frustration

[@rlptp]

[@themattiemisfit]

WAIT YOU CAN FAVORITE SEARCH STRINGS?!?! How is that not mentioned more often, game changer. that tip alone was worth the video.

[@bravadious1]

You can show the pokemon under a CP limit by searching CP-1500 for great league and CP-2500 for ultra league. For example: 3,6,9,26&cp-1500 However if you want to include shadows in there you will either have to let the shadows show for all the pokemon or do the cp-1500 each time. For example: 3&cp-1500,6&cp-1500,9&shadow&cp-1500 Hope this helps

[@mikedavis2979]

If you put a (!) In front of the word "shadow" it will filter the shadowpokemok out. Just saying... you can filter everything out with a ! In front of a word. !4* will filter 100%IVs out.

[@Dre9six]

My biggest tip is just having an extensive tag system so that basically everything you want to keep has a tag and everything else is favourited and then just !# and bam

[@drakedillon8598]

You could add to those formulas the CP limits on the League's and you could also filter out the Shadows on the mega list. If someone hasn't told you them yet comment back and I can post them for you but they are pretty readily available. I manage my own Excel document that tracks everything in the game and I've been doing that for seven years now so the filters are incredibly helpful for me. If you have questions, let me know.

[@Halkel2k6]

You can add cp10-1500 or cp10-2500 to the search to filter out non Great or Ultra League cps. I found it out when a research required beating a 3* raid with Ultra League pokemon

[@JuanM.Rodriguez1031]

3:37 you can type “cp 0-1500” and it’ll only give you Pokémon 1500 or less

[@SoopCanSam-EthoPlaylists]

You could also put every raid type search in one search, and put a + in front of every number to show the whole evolution chain. To show pokemon less than CP500/1500/2500 you just type &cp-1500 or whatever max cp you're looking for.

[@bryanep]

AMAZING work! Cannot stress this enough.

[@RancorSnp]

So, these search strings are a great help, but I feel like there is still room to optimize it a little bit. Now personally, I following advice from another comment have put all of the type search strings into one, so it shows me all of my best raid pokemon regardless of type, which is great. But there are some things that would still greatly help the players to manage, we have a search string for all of the good pokemon, we have a search string for all of the bad IV pokemon. But if a pokemon is not a raid pokemon and doesn't have bad stats, the player will still need to go through all of the pokemon in their box to find them. It maybe can be sped up a little bit with a search string that shows you all of the objectively bad pokemon? Pokemon that are not good in either raids nor pvp, no matter how good their IV's are? Search string to show all the 12 candy evolutions and pokemon that have trade evolutions could also be very helpful in saving time on the spot when the player needs to do some fast maintenance but yeah, this search string compilation without any doubt makes storage management the easiest it has ever been

[@alexandrat9763]

Another way to save search threads is in your device's dictionary, where you can create a suggestion shortcut! Great tips!

[@alexandrat9763]

And to limit cp you can try adding &cp1-1500, it's important to set the ending perimeter or it will show you only the first specified number. The hyphen will indicate from and to. If you want to exclude, you can add an exclamation mark e.g. 1-3&!cp2000-3000 will get you all your Bulbasaurs, Ivys, and Venus who are not between 2000-3000 cp.

[@MegaAman78]

FYI I was able to successfully combine all of the type search threads together so I can save it and it only takes up one space then before I use it to search I can scroll down and pick the type filter prior
