Lure Modules can help you on your journey to catching them all in Pokemon GO, but you’ll need to know how to get them and the different types you may find.

Pokemon GO offers a variety of ways to make your Trainer adventure even easier, and Lure Modules bring Pokemon straight to a PokeStop of your choice.

However, there are a few different types of Lure Modules, and it can be difficult to wrap your head around them at first glance. Luckily for you, we have all of the information you need in this guide!

What are Lure Modules in Pokemon GO?

Lure Modules are items that you use at a PokeStop to attract wild Pokemon to spawn near it.

They work similarly to Incenses and Daily Adventure Incense. However, instead of spawning Pokemon closer to you, they’ll spawn next to the selected PokeStop.

At default, Lure Modules last 30 minutes. Niantic sometimes alters this during events, such as Pokemon GO Community Days, where it may be boosted to three hours.

They can also help evolve some Pokemon, depending on the type of Lure Modules used.

How to Evolve Pokemon Using Lure Modules

Certain Pokemon require a specific Lure Module to be active nearby to evolve into their final evolution. You’ll need enough Candy, as well as the correct Lure Module.

For example, to evolve Eevee into Glaceon, you need 25 Eevee Candy and must stand next to a PokeStop with an active Glacial Lure Module.
