Pokemon Go PokeBalls can be bought using PokeCoins, but there is obviously a way of getting them without spending money.
Originally appearing in Pokemon Red and Blue, PokeBalls are one of the most important items in the game. You need them in order to battle and capture Pokemon in them.
At the very beginning of the game, you are gifted with a total x50 PokeBalls, but if you are constantly capturing Pokemon, you will run out of your initial supply of x50 in about no time.

PokeBalls
Once you have unlocked a specific PokeBall, you will be able to get it randomly at PokeStops. Moreover, you will get some each time you level up in the game. Lastly, PokeBalls can be purchased for PokeCoins.
- x20 PokeBalls for 100 PokeCoins

PokeBall
Unlocked At: Level 1
This is the default ball which you can use in order to catch a wild Pokemon. Its catch rate has a modifier of 1 which is standard.
Great Ball
Unlocked At: Level 12
This is the upgraded version of PokeBall which is x1.5 more successful in catching a wild Pokemon.
Ultra Ball
Unlocked At: Level 20
This is even more upgraded version of Great Ball and has a catch modifier x2 which means that it is twice as successful as compared to PokeBall.
Master Ball
Unlocked At: Around Level 30
This is the best item you have in order to catch a wild Pokemon. It has a success rate of 100 per cent which means that you will never fail to catch a Pokemon.

Farming Pokemon Go PokeBalls by Leveling Up
One of the best ways of getting more PokeBalls in Pokemon Go is to constantly level up your trainer. There are a number of leveling up techniques in the game that include capturing more Pokemon, evolving Pokemon, and more.
Each time you level up in the game, you are awarded with a few PokeBalls as a reward! In case you are having difficulties in leveling up, make sure to check out our Pokemon Go Power Leveling Guide for more information.
Since you require PokeBalls in order to capture Pokemon, both of these methods go hand-in-hand!
Farming Pokemon Go PokeBalls by Visiting PokeStops
You will notice blue icons floating on your world map. These scattered blue icons represent PokeStops. If you close in the gap and reach these icons, they will change, signifying interaction.
Tapping these blue icons will show you a real picture, otherwise referred to as Photo Disc. Once you are in range, you simply need to rotate the Photo Disc and get yourself some free PokeBalls, Candies, and other goodies.
One important thing that you need to note here is that you get a limited amount of PokeBalls during a PokeStop trip and must wait about 10-15 minutes in order to get more.
Currently, this is the only legit way of farming PokeBalls since there is no limit as to how many times you can visit a PokeStop. Just continue to visit them again and again and you will be racking up PokeBalls in no time!
Farming Pokemon Go PokeBalls by GPS Spoofing
The first thing that you need to note is that this method only works on an Android device. To get started, you need to open up Developers Options in settings menu and check Allow Mock Locations.
Once you have done that, you need to download an app called Fake Location Spoofer Free. After downloading the app, you need to go to your Location Settings and select GPS Only under Mode Menu.
This will essentially allow you to trick Pokemon Go into thinking that you are in a new location and farm more PokeBalls. However, one important thing that you need to bear in mind is that the method works with rooted devices only.
If you do not have a rooted device (which voids the warranty and is not recommended) you should stick to other legit methods. Moreover, there is no saying whether using the mock locations will get you banned from the game’s servers or not – use it at your own risk!
