It only takes four days of playing your local gyms to increase your storage and inventory by 50 points forever. This should be your sole focus until you have at least 1000 slots for each. By that point, you'll have a firm understanding of what you actually need and what you can afford to splurge on.
Get into the grindset. Love the grindset. 50 coins every day is one step closer to never worrying about coins again. Play the hand you're dealt and remember that it's a game and not a job.
The meat of the experience is in the stories you direct on your way to the top. Pinsir is one of my favorite Bug-Types after being my least favorite since 1998, and it's all because I caught an absolute champion of a mon early in my career and it carried my pauper ass all the way to the big leagues. I've caught better Pinsir since then, but that tough old girl will always be my number one.
