"Legit PSA: Incense pokemon are unaffected by the pokedex-scaling bug. Also, the pokedex scaling bug has existed for over a month."

#PokemonGO: Everything to know about the pokedex scaling bugA small thread discussing incense and egg pokemon being unaffected by thisIf you need a high IV Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle, chances are you have learned it can only come from an egg. Try incense too!If you move around you can get up to 29 pokemon per incenseIf you can use your incense in a rural or oceanic area (no pokestops spawn points for over 1km) then you will spawn random pokemon instead of mainly rattata/pidgey/junk (I have gotten a starter on average every 30-50 incense pokemon in the middle of nowhere. When in the "city" I just get pidgeys/rattata mostly... YMMV)Your hatched starter will be lvl 20 max - the incense starter could be as high as lvl 30, saving you stardust and candiesPlease note that some pokemon IVs are BETTER due to the bug (Dratini and Eeevee, that's why everybody and their mama has a 96%+ Eeveelution) so during incense their IVs will be, on average, worseNow that appraisals are a thing, maybe we can push for this to be fixed via /r/pokemongo http://ift.tt/2bQVX4F
