In Pokémon GO, there have been 3 new Lures in the shop for a few months and recently also in the Jirachi research. But how do you best use the modules?
Here is how to obtain the 3 Lures: All 3 modules have been available for purchase in the in-game shop since mid-May. The new special research regarding Jirachi gives you each module once for free. You only need to complete the first stage of the research.
But what is the best way to use these items? We show you the best practices.
Effectively use Moss, Glacier, and Magnetic Module – Here’s how
The advantage of these modules is: All 3 modules attract double the number of Pokémon compared to regular lures. This is an advantage you should utilize in the right situations.
In these events, you should use them the best: Where it is particularly important to catch many Pokémon is at Stardust Events. There, each Pokémon yields more Stardust, making the modules ideal for this.
In the event, the Moss Module is especially important. It attracts Pokémon like Butterfree or Beedrill, which yield significantly more Stardust because they are fully evolved.
Using Lures outside of the event: If you want to use the modules outside of a Stardust Event, you should activate them collectively. Look for places where you have 4 or more PokéStops and activate the modules there.
It’s best if you can be on the move during this time. Always walk in a circle around the modules. This way, you can hatch eggs and have something to catch almost continuously.
Make sure to also use a Star Piece during this time. This way, you can obtain the most Stardust from the modules.
Team up: It’s best to do such module rounds together with friends. This way, everyone can contribute a few Lures, and you won’t be alone with the costs.
This is the side effect of the modules: You can also use Lures as a type of evolution item. Each of the 3 modules can evolve special Pokémon:
- Glacier Lure: Eevee to Glaceon
- Moss Lure: Eevee to Leafeon
- Magnetic Lure: Magneton to Magnezone, Nosepass to Probopass
However, you should not activate these Lures solely for evolutions but always when you can use them effectively.
