This week,

We kick off with a full New Year Event wrap-up, sharing how we played, what rewards stood out, and whether the event delivered on its festive promise. From bonuses to spawns, it’s an open and honest chat about what worked, what didn’t, and how it felt starting the year in-game.

Next, Ian leads us into a WhatsApp message from a listener, before we hit News Part One with a breakdown of the High Zaptitude event. We discuss the key features, event bonuses, and whether this electric-themed event lives up to the hype.

In Ask the Intern, Milo highlights a talking point from the official Pokémon GO X account around Grookey Community Day, sparking discussion and a few raised eyebrows. That flows neatly into a Piplup Community Day Classic catch-up, where we share how much we played, our best catches, and any shiny or IV flexes.

News Part Two brings us Precious Pals, setting the tone for upcoming gameplay and trainer goals. Then it’s game time as Mark hosts Chasing the Tail, testing Pokémon knowledge in a fast-paced fan favourite.

We close the episode with Shinies of the Week, celebrating the best recent catches from the Incensed! crew and community.

This week,

We kick things off with a full Winter Events recap, chatting through Winter Holiday Part 1 and Part 2, the Winter Wonderland event, and the Celestial Research Day. From festive spawns and bonuses to what worked (and what didn’t), we share how we played, what stood out, and whether these seasonal events delivered the holiday magic Trainers were hoping for.

Next up, it’s game time as Milo hosts the Flex Game, this time with help from our Patreon community. Expect bold claims, spicy flexes, and a few competitive moments as we put Pokémon GO achievements to the test.

Then it’s time for strategy with Counter Bros, focusing on Black Kyurem and White Kyurem. We break down their typing and key stats before each host shares their 'top' counter picks, helping you prepare for raids and maximise your damage when these powerful Legendary Pokémon return.

We round off the episode with a celebration of luck and sparkle in Shinies of the Week, highlighting the best catches from the Incensed! community.

This week,

We open the episode by looking back at our Individual 2025 goals, holding each other to account and seeing which challenges we smashed… and which ones escaped us. From content to travel ambitions, it’s an honest reflection before we set our sights firmly on new goals for 2026.

In Pokémon GO news, we break down January’s content update, covering everything Trainers need to know about Max Battles, 5-Star Raids, Raid Hours, Shadow Raids, Mega Raids, Spotlight Hours, and upcoming in-game events. We also touch on the January GO Pass, featuring Dialga and the return of the Lucky Trinket.

It’s game time as Ian hosts The Generation Game, where knowledge is tested and bragging rights are on the line as we guess which generation different Pokémon come from.

Next, we dive into more January highlights, including Community Day Classic featuring Piplup, with dates, featured attacks, ticket details, bonuses, and extended lure modules. We also cover the Pinch Perfect event, introducing Klawf, plus wild spawns, raids, research, bonuses, and paid Timed Research. Finally, we unpack the Kyurem Fusion Raid Day, including event bonuses, featured attacks, Adventure Effects, and ticket options.

We wrap up with a big open discussion on podcast goals for 2026, sharing what we want Incensed! to become next year, before finishing with your Shinies of the Week.

This week,

It’s our festive special on Incensed!, A Pokémon GO podcast, as Ian Waterfall, PoGoMiloUK, and Masterful 27 gather for a Christmas-themed celebration packed with banter, reflection, and shiny sparkle.

We kick things off with a festive welcome and plenty of holiday chatter, setting the tone before diving into a bumper Getting To Know You – Ask Us Anything. Questions sent in by our Patreons via Discord lead us into a thoughtful look back at Pokémon GO in 2025, highlighting the features, events, and decisions we’ve loved… and those we’d rather forget.

Next, it’s time for a true Incensed tradition: the Festive Pub Quiz – 12 Questions of Xmas. Expect trivia, Christmas chaos, and competitive energy as the hosts battle it out for festive bragging rights.

In The News, we break down the Pokémon GO New Year’s 2026 Event, covering dates and times, event bonuses, holiday decorations, wild encounters, raids, Field and Daily Research, Lucky Exchanges, paid Timed Research, and the exclusive New Year avatar item.

We close the episode with a heartfelt wrap-up of 2025, reflecting on the Incensed! Podcast journey this year. From favourite moments and standout episodes to milestones we’re proud of, it’s a look back at what made 2025 special for the show.

Finally, we add some sparkle with Xmas Shinies of the Week, as each host picks two festive favourites.

Happy holidays, Trainers — and thank you for an amazing year with Incensed! 🎁✨

This week,

We open with a long-overdue Level 80 progress check-in, breaking down how our grind is going, what’s changed since the last update, and whether the road to Level 80 still feels achievable (or mildly terrifying).

Next up is News Part 1, featuring a full breakdown of the brand-new Forever Friend system. We explain how it works, how many points you’ll need, what rewards and unlocks are on offer, and whether this new progression layer is worth the effort for a remote trade? That leads straight into huge Pokémon GO Fest 2026 news, with live locations officially announced for Tokyo, Chicago, and Copenhagen. Naturally, we debate whether any of these cities are making our travel plans.

The fun ramps up with the Flex Game, where Gold Tier Patreon supporters choose the categories — expect big flexes & bold claims.

We then reflect on the December Community Day Weekend, sharing our best catches, how much we actually played, and what Community Days in 2025 got right (and wrong).

In News Part 2, we cover the upcoming Grookey Community Day and dive into Winter Holiday Part 1 & 2, looking at bonuses, spawns, and seasonal vibes. We round things off with a listener WhatsApp message and, of course, Shinies of the Week.

This week,

We kick things off with Mark’s electrifying warning: “DANGER DANGER! HIGH VOLTAGE!” as the trio deliver their full High Voltage event review. From spawns and bonuses to frustrations, surprises, and standout catches, nothing escapes their inspection — followed by a quick but spark-filled? chat about Dynamax Eevee.

Next up, the boys revive a classic favourite: What The Ducklett (OG Edition) — where they attempt to guess the Pokémon using only its Pokédex entry. Expect chaos. Expect confusion. Expect Ian to overthink it.

Then it’s time for Ask The Intern, as the hosts address the new Pokémon GO ban wave that hit countless Trainers — including many who insist they weren’t cheating. What went wrong? What does it mean? And how do players protect themselves going forward?

The episode surges into The News, spotlighting the brand-new Pokémon GO Season: Precious Paths. The hosts break down the highlights, early impressions, and gameplay shifts, before Mark introduces the details of GO Pass December— including GO Pass vs. GO Pass Deluxe, featured Pokémon, reward tracks, and those mysterious timed incubator bonuses.

Finally, the squad wraps things up with the community’s favourite segment: Shinies of the Week, celebrating YOUR newest sparkles.

This week,

Hosts Masterful 27, PoGoMiloUK, and Ian Waterfall celebrate a milestone instalment by diving deep into GO Wild Area Global, breaking down everything Trainers loved… and not so much.
