'''Incenses''' (Japanese: '''おこう''' ''Incense'') are a group of [[held item]]s that were introduced in [[Generation III]]. They allow [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] Pokémon to produce [[baby Pokémon]] they otherwise would not be able to. They also have unrelated in-battle effects.

When held by a Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Day Care]] or the [[Pokémon Nursery]], they allow Pokémon to produce {{pkmn|Egg}}s containing [[baby Pokémon]] that they otherwise could not. Specifically, baby Pokémon introduced in [[Generation III]] or later (besides {{p|Riolu}} and {{p|Toxel}}) normally cannot be produced by breeding; however, if a breeding pair that would normally produce Eggs containing the evolved form of one of these baby Pokémon, and one of the parents holds the corresponding Incense, Eggs containing the baby Pokémon will be produced instead.

Incenses are not present in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]], and the associated Pokémon hatch from Eggs by default. This means it is not possible to produce {{p|Chansey}}, {{p|Marill}}, or {{p|Sudowoodo}} Eggs in Scarlet and Violet.
