Niantic have announced some upcoming changes to Pokémon GO.
Starting the end of July testing first in the US and New Zealand, players will receive 2 free Raid Passes a day from spinning Poké Stops, get more Incense effectiveness while moving and be guaranteed Gifts from PokéStops. This will end when the Season of Discovery ends and will be available when it's safe to do so in other countries
Starting at the end of July, again for US and New Zealand as a test, Niantic are to remove Incense effectiveness back to how it was before March last year, requiring you to move around for increased effectiveness. Buddy Pokémon will bring back less gifts and the distance to reach Poké Stops and Gyms will be returned to normal
However, Niantic will continue to keep the Incense to last at 60 minutes, no walking requirement for GO Battle League, increased Gift amounts and the increased Stardust and Experience at the start of each day
