Niantic has made Pokemon Go easier and cheaper to play while you are stuck at home due to the coronavirus pandemic. It's tough to get poke balls when you are stuck at home and cannot be out to spin PokeStops or gyms. So to make sure that you are stocked up, Niantic is letting you buy 100 poke balls for 1 PokeCoin for this week.

This bundle, that's worth 1 PokeCoin, will be offering something different every week in rotation and is a one-time purchase.
