Something I mentioned earlier this year when I discussed the Presents feature in Café Remix is the "collection limit" of items in the game. More recent or less active players won't have to worry about this aspect too much, but frequent and longer-term players will find that the aspect becomes relevant - particularly as I have, in more recent times. With that, the aspect makes for a good discussion, especially to close the gap that I presented by having mentioned the aspect in the previous discussion.
For that, most items other than Pokémon cookies have a collection limit of 999 items, which sounds like a lot. However, frequent play will make it evident that the limit can be reached rather quickly; a case in point is the Daily Training, which when fully completed and/or skipped awards 18 Tart XL of a specific type, and over many days, this can add up quickly if not used. Even the Skip Tickets for this accumulate in the same way and can't be used very quickly, over time allowing the limit to be hit.
Pokémon cookies meanwhile have a limit of 23 for each species, reflecting the number needed to uncap its level to Level 20 (3 at 5, 10 at 10, and 10 at 15). If a Pokémon has a Shiny variant, more can potentially be earned, but usage of existing cookies is also needed. For other items of relevance as Macarons and Kitchen Notes, it's likely that one will use them before reaching an imposed limit, so the "practical" limit may be how many one can stand to earn as they play regularly or not so regularly.
Then, there are items from Cook and Collect that have their own limits. For the Gholdengo event that has continued to persist, its limit is 4995 Gimmighoul Coins - which is quite more than the typical limit - and if one has earned all of that, then Gholdengo also has its max outfit grade. Meanwhile, a new event has started featuring Zygarde, and at the present time, one is limited to having 10 Zygarde Cores while they continue to earn Zygarde Cells up until February next year, something to look forward to.
"Maxing out" the items that are mentioned above is by no means a primary goal, at least for the usable items; for those, it is certainly preferred for players to use them before they hit the limit and cannot possibly earn any more of them. The general limit of 999 items is just that - general - and player activity will certainly determine how quickly or slowly they'll get there. At that point, the usage of the earned items on the staff Pokémon may break their own limits, ones that aren't imposed on them like these are.
