Daily Adventure Incense, a new type of Incense that attracts Pokémon to you for 15 minutes while you are moving, has arrived in Pokémon GO
We’re excited to announce that a new Incense is coming to Pokémon GO—Daily Adventure Incense! Activate Daily Adventure Incense and begin to explore, and you may encounter Pokémon not frequently seen in the wild!
Also, Trainers around the world will be able to enjoy Daily Adventure Incense, even if they live in rural areas!
“We are thrilled to introduce the Daily Adventure Incense to Pokémon GO as it will enable our trainers across the world including in rural areas to enhance their gaming experience. In the new incense, trainers for the first time will come across Pokémon that are not frequently rarely seen in the wild, which will further inspire them to explore their surroundings. In addition, to ensure that all Trainers get to enjoy this new Incense, trainers running low on Poké Balls will receive 30 Poké Balls when they activate their Daily Adventure Incense. Together, these features will make it much easier for trainers who don’t live as near a PokéStop to play! We continue to be committed to helping people achieve their health objectives while also getting them out into the real-world metaverse. We are confident that accessibility of the new incense will help us connect with more India trainers and expand our community in the region”, said Michael Steranka, Product Director, Pokémon GO Live Game at Niantic, Inc.
Daily Adventure Incense will continue rolling out to players over the next week. We can’t wait to see what Trainers all around the world will discover during their Daily Adventure Incense expeditions!
