Pokémon GO Glacial Lure Modules Explained

Lures are Pokémon Go items that work as more powerful incense, attaching to a Pokéstop of a player's choosing and attracting Pokémon to that location. Lures increase the number and variety of Pokémon that will frequent the area, letting all players nearby take advantage. Lures are only temporary, however, so players must make the most of the available time.

Glacial Lures are one of three new Lure Modules that were added to Pokémon Go in the latest update. They specialize in bringing water- and ice-type Pokémon to the chosen Pokéstop. They can also be used to evolve Pokémon into Glaceon.

Glacial Lure Modules can be obtained through the coin shop and as rewards for completing Special Research tasks coming to the game later this year.
