Niantic is rolling out the red carpet for Necrozma during Pokémon Go Fest 2024, bringing the Legendary to the game along with its fusion variants. Though the way you collect them all is different than you might expect.

Starting with Go Fest 2024: Sendai on May 30, players can encounter Necrozma in special event raids as it makes its debut. Additionally, the ability to fuse your captured Necrozma with either Solgaleo or Lunala to get Dusk Mane Necrozma or Dawn Wings Necrozma will also open up. This is technically the first time a fusion mechanic like this has been added to Pokémon Go, despite Kyurem’s fusions previously being pushed live by accident in December, so a new method to obtain these Pokémon will also be implemented.
