1. Using the "Sweet Scent" Item: This item increases the chances of encountering Pokémon in a particular area for a short time. You can find Sweet Scent in various locations, like the Poké Mart in Goldenrod City.
2. Using the "Poke Radar"**: This item, found at the Goldenrod City Radio Tower, can be used to pinpoint the location of specific Pokémon in a specific area. This is a more advanced method of finding Pokémon than Sweet Scent.
3. "Walking around"**: While not as specific as the other methods, simply walking around a particular area increases your chances of encountering Pokémon. The more you walk, the more likely you are to encounter Pokémon.
4. "Using Repels"**: Repels are items that prevent encounters with lower-level Pokémon. While this doesn't technically increase your chance of encountering Pokémon, it does allow you to focus on encountering higher-level Pokémon.
5. "Using a specific Rod"**: In SoulSilver, you can use a fishing rod to catch Pokémon in specific areas. The type of rod you use will determine what types of Pokémon you are able to catch.
6. "Waiting for the right time"**: Some Pokémon are more likely to appear at specific times of day, such as early morning or late evening.
These methods help you find Pokémon in SoulSilver, although they aren't called "lures" in the game. They're still a useful way to increase your chances of encountering specific Pokémon.
