Niantic has just announced a small avalanche of news for Pokémon GO, introducing a feature which fans have been desperate for for some time, and celebrating the success of this year's Community Day events in style.
First up, the news so many have been waiting for: your Pokémon storage can now hold up to 2,000 of the lovely little critters to help keep hold of all your favourites. Every single social media post from Niantic over the past few months has been bombarded with fans asking for this feature, so hopefully this will please an awful lot of players.
The Community Day news comes in the form of a big celebration, with every Pokémon species featured during past events returning once again for a special weekend-long event. Things will be kicking off from Friday 30th November to Sunday 2nd December, and all of the featured moves from each Community Day will also be available. You can check out some more details below:

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Finally! Had to delete 200 pokemon few weeks ago just in case this wouldn't have arrived sooner.
The storage space was something I desperately needed, so I'm glad it's finally increased.
But it makes me wonder why they could not have done this sooner, and also why only 2000 and not a higher number.
Looking forward to getting more Shiny Mareep. I only have one and he's too adorable to evolve. Also Cyndaquil. Ideally I'd like enough to have shiny of all 3 evolutionary stages!
You gotta pay for that extra storage, right? And fans are begging for it. Well played Niantic!
I been waiting months for this to happen. Kind of wish it came out before Let's Go, I could of have more Kanto pokemon saved.
Next up, item storage increase.
I was wondering about the storage its great IT BEEN INCREASED BUT STILL HAVING TO BUY IT THATS A BIT NAFF with all the money Niantic has made from the game that would be a bonus for all of us paying ..think about it Niantic lolx
