Pokémon GO Rain Lure Module Explained: All 6 Lure Types, Spawns, Evolutions
Pokémon GO has six different Lure Modules you can activate on PokéStops to boost nearby spawns and, in some cases, unlock specific evolution paths. The newest addition is the Rain Lure Module, introduced in May 2021, and each module targets different Pokémon types for a limited time—so choosing the right lure can make a big difference depending on what you’re trying to catch or evolve.
How Lure Modules work (and for how long)
Once you place a Lure Module on a PokéStop, it remains active for 30 minutes. During that window, you can expect:
- More Pokémon spawns at the PokéStop
- Access to Pokémon that are themed around the module you activated
- Certain evolutions that only function when the right module is active nearby
To use one, select a PokéStop and tap the small Lure Module icon tied to the spinning disc, then choose the module you want to place from the list.

Where to get Lure Modules, and cost
You can purchase Lure Modules from the Pokémon GO shop under the Items section.
- Standard price: 180 coins per module
- Exception: the Normal Lure Module costs 100 coins
Alternatively, Lure Modules can appear as research rewards from time to time. A Rain Lure Module was previously listed as a reward from “Illuminierende Legenden X,” and future research rewards may include more modules.
Community note: the bonus is shared
Lure Module benefits apply to everyone nearby. If you and friends are out together and one player activates a module on a PokéStop, all players in the area can benefit from the increased spawns and module effects.
