Necrozma in Pokémon Go: Release date, weaknesses and counters
Necrozma is almost in Pokémon Go, and so you’re up to speed, we’ve got the release date, weaknesses and counters to help you get the drop on them.
We've even whipped up a video detailing the event to give your weary brain cells a rest. Check it out up top.
First teased in April, Necrozma’s debut was officially announced to coincide with Pokémon Go Fest 2024, and with that fast approaching, we’ll take a look at the dates and when players can expect to attempt to catch Necrozma.
There’s also Dawn Mane and Dusk Wings Necrozma to contend with, too, and we’ve got everything you need to know to battle these two, as well as how to get them for yourself.
But, seeing as we’ve gotta catch ‘em all (and they keep adding more), our work never tires — so let’s get to it!
Necrozma is coming to Pokémon Go during Pokémon Go Fest 2024, which starts in Japan on 30th May, with the global event concluding on 14th July.
That means we can expect Necrozma to debut sometime in that window. Players will be able to catch it locally at the events, with Necrozma seeing a wider release during the global event.
Even if you don’t have a ticket, you can still be in the area and catch one – though not a shiny variant.
As a refresher, the event dates can be found below, if you’re lucky enough to attend one of them.
Necrozma has other forms, too, namely Dusk Mane Necrozma and Dawn Wings Necrozma. Players will be able to battle against them, in 5-Star Raids, to gain Fusion Energy and Lunar Fusion during the event.
One you've defeated them and got the Fusion Energy/Lunar Fusion, you'll be able to fuse those items with Necrozma — along with either Solgaleo or Lunala — to unlock either Dusk Mane Necrozma or Dawn Wings Necrozma for yourself.
