Three new lures have just gone live in Pokemon GO, and they will make it much easier to catch certain types of Pokemon.
Three new lures have just arrived in Pokemon Go. The Glacial Lure, Mossy Lure, and Magnetic Lure are all in the shop now, and will cost 200 Poke Coins each. According to a post at the official Pokemon GO website, it’s not just new Lures that have arrived in the game either.
“We’re excited to announce that more Pokémon originally discovered in the Sinnoh region are coming to Pokémon GO! From seas and beaches to mountains and beyond, be on the lookout for Cherubi, Gible, Hippopotas, and others. We hope you’ll enjoy the fun and surprises as you encounter these Pokémon in the wild and hatch them from Eggs. Also arriving in Pokémon GO is a powerful Ground-type move—Earth Power!”
As for the new lures, according to the official Pokemon website, these new lures attract Pokemon in the surrounding area by creating a temporary special habitat. A Glacial Lure Module will attract Pokemon that “love the cold,” such as Water- and Ice-Type Pokémon. This lure can also trigger the evolution of Eevee into Glaceon.
A Mossy Lure Module will attract Pokemon that “love mossy scents,” such as Bug-, Grass-, and Poison-Type Pokémon. It will also trigger the evolution of Eevee into Leafon.
The final new item, the Magnetic Lure Module, will attract Pokemon that have a magnetic field, such as some Electric-, Steel-, and Rock-type Pokémon. It can trigger the evolution of Magnezone and Nosepass into Probopass. All the new Modules have a 30-minute timer.
If you have been eagerly awaiting the chance to get your hands on Leafon, Glaceon, or Probopass, then now is the time! To use the new Lures, you need to be within range of a Pokestop, then activate the lure for the appropriate Pokemon that you want. After that, it is down to your skill as a Pokemon trainer, so best of luck trying to catch them all.
