After getting level 20 I was rewarded with 20 ultra balls (among other stuff). I assume this would have been like with the great balls, which unlocked them and allowed you to collect them from pokestops.

However after getting about 30-50 pokestops after hitting level 20, I have yet to get a single ultra ball, am I just incredibly unlucky?

Is it possible to get ultra balls from pokestops or is it going to be a pay to get item like lures and lucky eggs?

Yes, you can.

Source: I have. They aren't as common as regular balls. Don't forget to curve those when you run out of ultras.

    I finally got one, seems like it's a crazy low chance. What do you mean by curving regular balls?

  • Swirl your finger when "holding" a pokeball and then throw it to get the curveball bonus! Jul 20, 2016 at 7:17

    I know how to get a curveball bonus. But why did you say to curve normal balls when run out of ultras?

Apparently you can. I just hit 20 after egg evolve strategy and I spin pokestop for the FIRST time and I get an ultra ball. I was very surprised and wanted to know how rare these actually are. So I know you CAN get them from pokestops but no idea about the chance. I wish I was this lucky with the egg hatches...

  • After getting quite a lot more pokestops (and ultra balls) I'd say the chance is probably around 1-5%

Yup, they definently do! They are a bit rare to drop though. Here are some screenshots from a lucky day:

Yes, you can get ultra balls from Pokestops.

In this trailer, a woman spins the pokestop and gets ultra pokeballs from it.

    A trailer does not necessarily mean it is in the game. Content has been shown in trailers, but cut from the game due to differant reasons, before.

  • @Timelord64 I didn't see any content which is not in the game. Trading and battling will other players will be added in the future updates.

    In other words, you did see content that is not yet in the game. It also does show pre-release content that has been changed; Psyduck evolves at 50 candys, not 21
