Necrozma is arriving with a bang into Pokémon GO.
Necrozma is finally making its worldwide Pokémon GO debut. It will be avaliable directly in Raids during Saturday July 13, and then in through its two Fusion forms on Sunday July 14. This is all part of the huge Pokémon GO Fest: Global celebration.
Necrozma has two Fusion Forms, Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings. These will use the Shiny status, Level and IV’s of Necrozma when you fuse then. That means that getting a good Necrozma, as well as lots of Necrozma Candy is important. These Fusion Pokémon are very powerful, so make sure you’re able to grab them.
