Pokemon GOhas undergone a lot of changes in the last year alone. The mobile hit has seen the return of in-person events across the world as well asa large overhaul in the Mega Evolution mechanic.
Over the last six years, the mobile game still manages to boast millions of daily players that generate billions of dollars in revenue for The Pokemon Company. The developer, Niantic, is continuously looking for new features to add to the game to keep fans coming back for more. This time, the team has turned its attention back to the original mechanic: catching Pokemon.

The latest addition toPokemon GOcomes in the form of a new incense module named the Daily Adventure Incense. This can be found in the player’s item bag, and once activated, Pokemon that aren’t normally found in the wild will be attracted to the trainer’s location for 15 minutes so long as the trainer is moving. Once the time limit is up, players will have to wait until 12.00 AM local time for the module to reappear in the item bag and must be used by 11.44 PM at the latest for the next day’s unit to be granted. In addition, only one incense at a time can be held.
The new module shares a lot of similarities with theMeltan Mystery Box, which is obtained by linkingPokemon GOto a Nintendo Switch console. The daily incense doesn’t take up room in the player’s bag and cannot be used in conjunction with either the Mystery Box or the regular incense. On top of the new item, if a player has fewer than 30 Poke Balls, Great Balls, and Ultra Balls, then an additional 30 Poke Balls will be added once the Daily Adventure Incense is activated.
SinceNiantic introduced several unfavorable changes toPokemon GOearlier in the year, including cutting the spawn rates while using the regular incense, the developers are finding new ways to appease the community. It appears that the new Daily Adventure Incense aims to bring a balance to the game and will aid those living in more rural areas, however, the cavitate is that trainers must be continuously walking to benefit from the module.
Niantic hopes that the module, coupled with other daily bonuses, gives players more opportunities to enjoyPokemon GO. With moreHisuian forms of Pokemon joining the mobile gamein the coming days, the new Daily Adventure Incense will certainly provide more opportunities to help players catch them all.
Pokemon GOis available for iOS and Android.
