Pokemon GO developers released Shiny Necrozma as part of the GO Fest 2024: New York City event. You can get Shiny Necrozma by winning Necrozma 5-Star Raids, Dusk Mane Necrozma raids, and Dawn Wings Necrozma raids as a reward encounter. While there is a chance to encounter a Shiny Necrozma, getting a legendary Shiny Pokemon is extremely challenging.

Shiny Necrozma made its Pokemon GO debut during the GO Fest 2024. You must win numerous Necrozma raids to have a chance of a Shiny Necrozma encounter, but it is impossible to do so without proper strategy. Developers boost Necrozma’s maximum CP of 4163 significantly as a 5-Star Raid Boss, and with increased prowess, the legendary Ultra Beast becomes a formidable force. That said, this guide details the best way to win maximum Necrozma raids and get a Shiny Necrozma encounter.

Pokemon GO: Get Shiny Necrozma By Winning 5-Star Raids

Shiny Necrozma Pokemon GO

While winning Necrozma raids can reward a Shiny Necrozma in Pokemon GO, the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed. A legendary Shiny Pokemon is an extremely rare spawn, and there is a high chance of a Standard variant spawning instead. You must win numerous Necrozma raids to spawn multiple Standard variants; this strategy may aid in catching up to the monster’s Shiny odd.

But winning Ultra Beast raids is an extremely challenging ordeal; you must possess proper meta-knowledge and powerful counters to make it happen. The first thing to consider is avoiding solo raids and teaming up with other Pokemon GO trainers with powerful counters. Selecting the raid counters must be done after careful analysis of Necrozma’s weaknesses and resistances. The Necrozma raid counters must possess the Same Type of Attack Bonus (STAB) moves that align with its weaknesses. Do not select counters with moves that fall under Necrozma’s resistance.
