Pokemon GO players have a ton to accomplish this month, whether they are playing from home or are back out in their old communities. The mobile game is running an event nearly every week and the end of June is jam-packed with the upcoming Community Day, the Solstice Event, and wrapping up with another Bug-Out! event that will make Incense very useful.
When the Bug-Out event arrives in Pokemon GO later this month, there are going to be some very exciting features for players to take advantage of. In addition to the obvious increased spawn rates for Bug-type Pokemon in the wild, there is going to be a special emphasis on putting Incense to good use during the event. More Bug-type Pokemon will be attracted to Incense during the event and certain Bug-type Pokemon will be appearing more than others based on the day of the event.
In addition to the increased effectiveness of Incense, players will also have a new shiny Pokemon up for grabs to help motivate them to participate in the event. During the Bug Out! 2020 event, shiny Dwebble will make its debut in the mobile game and offer players the chance to add another new shiny to their collection this year.
