How do Habitat Hours work in Pokemon Go Fest 2023 Global?

Everyone can enjoy these Habitat Hours and encounter the themed Pokemon that will spawn in the wild, but only ticketholders will be able to get the special Incense spawns in the table below. Some of these are quite rare, like the Unowns and Pawniard.
You can keep track of which Habitat Hour is in play by looking at our table above or by checking the Today View in the game. Unlike last year’s Go Fest event, these Habitat Hours will run on a local time schedule rather than a single worldwide schedule.
It’s a good idea to look over the Habitat Hour schedule in advance of the event and make a note of all the Pokemon you want to focus on catching. This can help you plan when to take breaks or do Raid Battles.
