[Quiet Man Cometh]

I saw a little blurb some time ago by a hiker stating that if you went to where the game map was completely empty and then used an incense, you had greater odds of attracting Pokemon from the rarer end of the scale. Not sure how much it works, but when I've used incense here I've seen evolved pokemon, a magmar which I've never seen otherwise in the area, and my niece caught a vulpix which are also not common.

I'm started to time my rewards as well now, in case I'm home for a day or something. I can maintain a catching streak with research reward catches for example.
