This week,

We kick things off with a full Munchlax Hatch Day review — did this sleepy snack-loving baby Pokémon deliver the shiny rates we hoped for, or leave trainers hungry for more?

In The News, we quickly look at the upcoming Dark Skies event and dive into all the details ahead of the Pokémon GO Fest 2025 Max Finale. What can trainers expect from this massive global celebration, and which features are worth grinding for?

Game time returns with Chasing The Tail, hosted by Ian, as the boys try to outwit each other with Pokédex knowledge. Then we unpack the Origin Raid Day review, including a serious chat around shiny rate issues that had the community buzzing.

For Ask The Intern, we look through Niantic’s latest social media responses to the Origin Raid Day issues, with plenty of laughs (and frustrations) as we read through trainer feedback and reactions.

Finally, it’s time for your glittering catches in #ShiniesOfTheWeek, as we highlight some of the best finds from our amazing community.

This week,

We kick things off with a full Adventure Week & Fossil Research Day review — from rare spawns to shiny luck, which fossils rocked our Pokédex and which ones should’ve stayed extinct?

In The News, we break down the Indonesia Special Event (which wraps the same day this episode drops), share Niantic’s newly announced Next Season Save The Dates so you can plan your Pokémon GO adventures, and dive into the big reveal for September’s Community Day — Flabébé! Is this floral favourite a win, or a miss for trainers?

Then it’s game time with The Flex Game — three rounds, three hosts, and three chances to show off the ultimate Pokémon GO flex. Who will take home the bragging rights this week?

We round things out with our glittering #ShiniesOfTheWeek, showcasing your most jaw-dropping shiny catches from across the globe.

This week,

We kick off with a catch-up on gameplay, revisiting the Steel & Scales event and our thoughts on Dynamax Latias & Latios Max Raid Weekend — were the DMax dragons a win, snooze or just more of the same?

In The News, Milo introduces the upcoming Ultra Unlock: Origin Raid Day — is this new wave of raids bringing real hype? Mark walks us through the brand-new Cozy Companions event, while Ian gives us the lowdown on the August GO-Pass — what are the rewards, is the value there, and who should invest?

We feature listener WhatsApp voice messages and launch into a spicy discussion:
Is the Pokémon GO calendar getting too crowded? With constant overlapping events, raid weekends, and ticketed content, are trainers starting to feel the burnout? We also put this to the Incensed! community, and the result in the Incensed! poll is overwhelming!

Milo hosts this week’s game, “Chasing The Tail”, where Pokémon names link by their final letters — can you keep up?

Finally, it’s time for our glittering #ShiniesOfTheWeek as we highlight your best shiny catches from across the globe!

This week,

We kick off with huge news as Pokémon GO drops five new City Safari events for Septemner 2025—Amsterdam, Bangkok, Cancún, Valencia, and Vancouver are all on the calendar! We break down the featured spawns, bonuses, and exclusive Pokémon and ask the big question: Will we go?

Next, it’s time for Adventure Week 2025! With new Pokémon releases and a fresh take on this fan-favourite event, we share our best moments, biggest letdowns, and whether this year’s format kept us moving—or had us skipping steps.

We also dive into the announcement of GMax Butterfree Raid Day & what to expect, followed by a look at the upcoming Rookidee Community Day. Does the bonus disappoint? Is the Ultra Unlock version worth the hype?

We react to the GO Fest Max Finale news including the Pokémon Presents surprise—Eternatus, GMax Cycling Battles, and a juicy promo code drop!

Then it’s time for the Shiny Happy Pokémon game, hosted by Mark—Ian out-glitter JT Valor in this best-of-three shiny guessing challenge?

Plus, we & JT Valor reflect on the UK Pokémon GO Road Trip in Manchester and London—the highs, lows, and potential for the future.

This week,

We kick things off with a recap of the Hisuian Lilligant Raid Day and the ongoing Hisui Celebration Event—did the spicy green dancer deliver, or were the odds against us? The hosts and Tom (The Kruse Ship) share their raid results, frustrations, and whether this event really honoured Hisui in style.

The news is bursting this week, with the announcement of the upcoming Max Battle Weekend featuring Latias and Latios, as well as the Pokémon GO Summer Concert Event.

Then it’s time to show off in our Flex Game—each round, the trio go head-to-head to crown the ultimate flex master. Expect rare catches, wild brags, and some laughs along the way.

We also hear directly from the community with WhatsApp messages from our listeners including your thoughts on recent events and brilliant shiny luck.

And speaking of events, we chat through our first impressions of the Water Festival 2025, with a focus on Day One gameplay—did it live up to expectations?

We wrap it all up with Shinies of the Week, hosted by Tom himself, showcasing the community's top sparkles from across the globe.

This week,

We kick things off with a full recap of the Eevee Community Weekend and the ongoing 9th Anniversary Event—was it a shiny success or just another grind fest? Then, it's time to chill with the big news of the week: GMax Lapras Battle Day is coming... AGAIN, and the hype (and surf) is rising fast!

Next, we preview the brand new UK Pokémon GO Roadtrip Events, where Milo and Ian will be repping in London while Mark heads up to Manchester. What surprises do we expect from these location-based celebrations? Could this be a new direction for local in-person events?

In classic Incensed! style, we bring the chaos with Milo’s “What The Ducklet”—can the lads decode his craptic Pokémon clues? Plus, Mark delivers a rapid-fire “60-Second Community Day Recap” on Quaxley’s big day.

For Getting To Know You, Ian asks: If you could bring back any one TV show from the past, what would it be? Expect nostalgia, chaos, and likely at least 1 naughtys classic.

Then it’s time for Counter Bros, as we each share our top counters for Lunala, plus a brilliant WhatsApp message from a listener, and of course—Shinies of the Week, where we highlight YOUR top sparkles!
