In Pokémon Go, Gold PokéStops can emerge and provide you with a variety of prizes. They were a bit of a mystery when they first appeared, but now players can go out of their way to create them and earn a variety of rewards for doing so. Here’s everything you need to know about making Gold PokéStops in Pokémon Go.

In Pokémon Go, how do Gold PokéStops appear?

When Gold PokéStops first emerged, they were completely random, and a regular PokéStop would undergo this change. Now, any user with a Nintendo Switch and a copy of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet can do it. A Gold PokéStop is created by using a Golden Lure, which you can obtain by transmitting a Postcard from your Pokémon Go game to your Nintendo Switch and getting it in your Pokémon Scarlet and Violet game.

The Platinum Lure functions in the same way as a normal enticement. You select the PokéStop to use it on, then hit the Lure symbol at the top of the screen and select the Golden Lure from your collection. For a limited time, the PokéStop will transform into a Golden Lure, giving players who use it extra goods when they turn it, and there’s a high chance of getting a Gimmighoul Coin, which players need to develop Gimmighoul. This technique can only be used to obtain Gimmighoul Tokens.

If you want to get a Platinum Attract, make sure your Pokémon Go account is linked to your Nintendo Switch. This is also how you obtain a Coin Bag, which is required for Gimmighoul to show in your game and possibly develop. This can be done once a day.
