The mighty Necrozma and its fusion forms – Dawn Wings and Dusk Mane – debuted at the beginning of the Go Fest 2024 event. Now, they are all coming back to celebrate the start of the Dual Destiny season, which focuses on Pokemon Black & White leading to next year’s Go Tour.
If you’re still missing these Legendaries, here’s how to get Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon mascots, Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma in Niantic’s mobile game, including how to fuse Necrozma with Lunala or Solgaleo.
How to get Necrozma in Pokemon Go
As with all other Legendaries, there’s only one way to get Necrozma in the game. First, you must challenge and defeat it in a 5-Star Raid battle and then attempt to catch it using the limited amount of Premier Balls given to you at the end of the encounter.
Luckily for trainers, Necrozma will have a special event called Necrozma Fusion Raid Day that will take place on December 14, 2024, from 2:00 PM until 5:00 PM local time. This means, players will have three hours to challenge both Dawn Wings and Dusk Mane Necrozma for a chance to capture regular Necrozma.
How to fuse Necrozma with Solgaleo & Lunala
If you managed to get Solgaleo and Lunala you can fuse them with Necrozma to get two whole new forms. However, to do so, you must gather Fusion Energy, Necrozma Candy, and Cosmog Candy first. Here’s what you will need for each Pokemon:
Dusk Mane Necrozma
- 1,000 Solar Fusion Energy
- 30 Necrozma Candy
- 30 Cosmog Candy
Dawn Wings Necrozma
- 1,000 Lunar Fusion Energy
- 30 Necrozma Candy
- 30 Cosmog Candy
Those who fuse Necrozma with Solgaleo will obtain a Dusk Mane Necrozma who knows the Charged Attack Sunsteel Strike. On the other hand, those who fuse Necrozma with Lunala will receive a Dawn Wings Necrozma with the Charged Attack Moongeist Beam.

The most common way to get Fusion Energy is by defeating Necrozma’s fusion forms in Raid battles. To get Solar Fusion Energy you must take down Dusk Mane Necrozma and to get Lunar Fusion Energy, you need to beat Dawn Wings Necrozma.
There’s another way players can obtain Solar Fusion Energy and Lunar Fusion Energy and it’s by completing Special Research tasks during special events.
