‘Pokemon GO’ Cheats, Tips & Tricks: Guide to Using Incense to Catch Rare Pokemon [VIDEO]

"Pokemon Go" is mainly about catching Pocket Monsters but many people only know about Pikachu. Players should know that there are many other kinds of Pokemon to catch in the game and the most rewarding ones are the rare types.

Avid gamers of "Pokemon Go" know that owning or catching rare Pokemon will give them more XP and leveling up would be faster. However, such types of creatures are hard to find that only few trainers succeeded in capturing these rare monsters.

The good news is that, there is a way to lure and easily catch them. The secret is simple - Use incense.

Firstly, incense in "Pokemon Go" is a valuable tool for capturing even the rarest Pokemon because it draws in the creatures to the trainer's location. The importance of this tool even doubled after Niantic shut down third-party Pokemon-finding apps and removed the 3-step nearby tracker. As reported by Game & Guide, they were shut down to protect the game's system from damage.

How to use the incense

Using the incense is easy. Players just need to tap the Pokeballs, which can be found at the bottom of the screen, then choose incense from the items' menu.

Tap the incense and the "Pokemon Go" player's avatar will be surrounded by a swirling purple ball of gas. The timer will begin and as long as it is still running, the incense will work to attract Pokemon in the area.

The attracted Pokemon will only be visible to the player using the incense so there is no need to compete with other trainers nearby. The best way to use the incense is by keep moving in an open area. Doing this will compel Pokemon to spawn every one minute so the player will have the chance to catch more monsters quickly.

How "Pokemon Go" incense works

Although lures and incense are tools used to draw Pokemon to a particular area, they are two different things. Lures are used to attract monsters to Pokestops so all the players nearby can benefit from it.

On the other hand, "Pokemon Go" incense is like an exclusive type of lure because the monster will only be attracted to you alone. Lastly, rare Pokemon that do not even lurk in certain places will be forced to spawn when the incense is utilized so it is really a good tool to catch them all.
