Lax-Incense 
Lax Incense is a held item introduced in Generation III of the Pokémon series. Its primary function is to lower the accuracy of opposing Pokémon's moves by 10% when held by a Pokémon during battle. This can significantly impact the battle dynamics by making it more likely for the opponent's attacks to miss, thereby granting the holding Pokémon a higher chance of avoiding damage.
Additionally, Lax Incense plays a crucial role in Pokémon breeding. When held by a female Wobbuffet or a male Wobbuffet breeding with a Ditto, it allows the production of Wynaut eggs, the pre-evolution of Wobbuffet. Without Lax Incense, breeders would not be able to obtain Wynaut eggs, as the normal breeding process would only result in more Wobbuffet.
Interesting facts about Lax Incense include its resemblance to full incense, another item used in breeding specific Pokémon. Moreover, while its accuracy-lowering effect is similar to the Bright Powder item
