Incense (GO)

Revision as of 16:55, 18 February 2019 by TehPerson (talk | contribs) (should have a separate article since the item is basically unrelated to that of the main series)

Incense (Japanese: おこう Incense) is an item in Pokémon GO that, upon activation, draws wild Pokémon towards the player at an accelerated rate for 30 minutes in real time. The Lure Module is a similar item that, instead of being attached to the player, is deployed onto PokéStops.

Incense in Pokémon GO

The Incense in GO is analogous to Lures in the main series, rather than the class of items of the same name.

Effect

For 30 minutes, an Incense spawns approximately one Pokémon every five minutes if standing still, or one Pokémon every minute if walking. Pokémon spawned by incense sometimes tend to be more aggressive, dodging or attacking in shorter time intervals.

The Mystery Box and Incense are mutually exclusive: if one is active, the other cannot be.
