Pokemon Go hosts an Incense Day to celebrate the arrival of Mega Ampharos in the game. Today, between 11:00 and 17:00, local time, either Dragon-type Pokemon or Electric-type Pokemon will appear when you have active incense. Electric Pokemon will appear through incense spaces from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., while Dragon-type Pokemon will appear through incense spaces from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. : 00 and from 16:00 to 17:00. In addition, Mareep will appear more often from Incense throughout the event. To help players attend the Incense Day event, Pokemon Go sell 3 Incense for 1 Poke coin.
In addition to the fact that Mareep appears more often during the event, any Ampharos evolved during the event will know the Dragon Pulse move, a move that previously could only be learned during a Community Day in 2018. Dragon Pulse is special from handy when Ampharos Mega Evolves, because Mega Ampharos is an Electric / Dragon type Pokemon and would earn a bonus of the same type when using the attack.
Pokemon confirmed to appear during the incense event includes: Pikachu, Magnemite, Voltorb, Chinchou, Mareep, Plusle, Minun, Stunfisk, Horsea, Dratini, Trapinch, Vibrava, Swablu and Bagon. Keep in mind that Plusle, Minun and Bagon are all needed to complete the Hoenn Celebration Event collection challenge.
In addition to today’s Incense Day, Pokemon Go also hosts the aforementioned Hoenn holiday event, which showcases the growing number of Pokemon chicks in the Hoenn region. This includes the addition of Groudon and Kyogre in the 5-Star Raids until tomorrow, Monday, January 25th. The game will then enter a Johto Celebration event, which will give players the opportunity to evolve certain Pokemon to learn moves that were previously exclusive to the older Community Days. All of these Festive Events lead to the Pokemon Go Tour: Kanto event, which gives players the chance to capture Shiny versions of every Pokemon in the Kanto region.
