Pokemon-go – What are the chances to get anything from Pokestops

pokemon-go

The items you get from pokestops are variable. Sometimes you get 3, sometimes up to 7…

Is there a breakdown of how that is generated?

Like how it decides to give you once 5 pokeballs, then 1 ultraball + 2 potions, etc.

Honestly I am simply translating your comment section into an answer and adding a bit. The algorithm is random (though I have no source) when it comes to Pokestops. Some times you will get 2 Pokeballs and 1 Potion, and other times you will get 1 Pokeball, 1 Greatball, an Egg, and a Potion. There is an unverified rumor going around [@Kevin L] about hitting your 10th unique Pokestop. They say every 10th unique Pokestop you spin you will receive a bonus - 50 extra experience and multiple extra items (still random). I hope this helps sum things up.
