Incense



Incense is an item available in Pokémon Go.

When activated a pinkish aura appears around the trainer. The effect will follow you if you continue to travel, though part of the appeal is being able to keep catching while remaining in place. The effect will last for 30 minutes, during which a Pokémon appears to be summoned to your location roughly every 5 minutes. Pokémon lured by the incense will also have a pink aura.

The Pokémon spawned by the incense do not exist in the "Nearby" box. It spawns new Pokémon for you to catch. The incense will spawn 1 Pokémon every 5 minutes if you are standing still, and everyone 1 minute or 200 meters (whichever happens first) while moving. Other trainers are not affected by this item.

It can be obtained from PokéStops after level 5 or bought from the Shop.

Description
Incense with a mysterious fragrance that lures wild Pokémon to your location for 30 minutes.
