Last updated
Ever found yourself wondering how that magical item, incense, works in Pokemon GO? You’re in the right spot to uncover the magic!
Let’s dive into understanding the functionality of incense in Pokemon GO, a key item for all trainers out on an adventure.
Short Form Answer: Incense Attracts Pokemon
At its core, incense is an item players can use to attract nearby Pokemon to their location for a limited time. Imagine it like lighting a scented candle that Pokemon just can’t resist!
Once activated, incense releases a mysterious fragrance in the virtual world of Pokemon GO, drawing Pokemon close for 30 minutes. This makes it a fantastic tool for trainers looking to catch more Pokemon without moving around too much. So, if you find yourself stuck at home or in a spot with few Pokemon, just light up some incense and watch them come to you!
