Necrozma (/ˈnɛkroʊzmə/), Nekurozuma in Japanese, is a Pokémon species introduced in the seventh generation of Pokémon games, first appearing in Pokémon Sun and Moon (2016), before taking on a larger role with alternate forms serving as the game mascots of Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon (2017). It was designed by Hitoshi Ariga, with later forms expanded on by Kazumasa Iwao.
Design and development
[edit]Necrozma is a species of fictional creatures known as Pokémon, a video game series created by Satoshi Tajiri and developed by Game Freak.[1] Art director Ken Sugimori told We Love Pokémon magazine in 2013 that he wanted to simplify the designs of the creatures.[2][3] Kazumasa Iwao created Necrozma based on a previous design from Hitoshi Ariga,[4] keeping a straightforward, but cool design in mind, with Ultra Necrozma being rearrangements of those parts.[5] Whilst first appearing in Pokémon Sun and Moon,[6] Necrozma's Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon forms were revealed to the public in a leaked scan of CoroCoro Comic a month before the October 2017 edition was officially published.[7] These forms were translated from Japanese as Necrozma Mane of Twilight, the cover mascot of Ultra Sun and a Psychic and Steel type, and Necrozma Wings of Dawn, the cover mascot of Ultra Moon and a Psychic and Ghost type.[8][9] A final form, named Ultra Necrozma, was revealed in a trailer for Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon days before its release.[10][11] Kazumasa Iwao, speaking to Pokemon.com alongside Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon game director Shigeru Ohmori, explained that by placing Necrozma at the center of the story, they were able to "find a good balance with all of the other elements".[12]
In Pokémon Sun and Moon, the International Police detective Looker mistook Necrozma for one of the "Ultra Beasts", a group of Pokémon from another dimension, with it being described as "reminiscent" of them and receiving the designation of "UB Black".[13][14] In a similar manner to how Kyurem fused with Reshiram and Zekrom in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 (2012),[14] Necrozma is able to fuse with the Sun and Moon game mascots Solgaleo and Lunala by absorbing them into itself.[15][16] Necrozma features an insignia of a star on its back, similar to Solgaleo's sun symbol and Lunala's moon symbol.[14] It is categorised as the "Prism Pokémon", with its name derived from the words "necros" and "prisma",[17][18] matching the black crystalised armour that is also present in its fused forms.[14] In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Necrozma resides in a dimension known as "Ultra Megalopolis",[19] which can only be traversed to through the use of a wormhole.[20] It is explained that Necrozma has absorbed all the light from the dimension,[19] which it needs to sustain itself, suffering otherwise.[16] The fused form of Necrozma is befriended by the protagonist in dependent on the version, with Ultra Necrozma serving as the final boss of the game at the top of the tower in the Ultra Megalopolis dimension.[21][22]
Other appearances
[edit]Appearing in Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon, Necrozma served as an antagonist from episodes 87 through 90,[23] with the protagonists being required to rescue Solgaleo by feeding Necrozma light in an effort to restore it.[24][25][better source needed] Necrozma also appears in the Pokémon Adventures manga in Pokémon Sun & Moon 12, where it again serves as an antagonist, this time to the main protagonists of the story, Sun and Moon.[26][27] In the Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket, Ultra Necrozma EX was included as part of an Ultra Beast drop event in May 2025.[28] This EX card was considered to be the main reward and was exclusive to the event, with it having a limited ten day run from 3-13 June 2025.[29][30] The card included the move "Shoegaze" which inflicts 120 hit points and discards five cards from the top of the opponents deck, which is a quarter of the total Pocket deck limit.[31] Ultra Necrozma EX featured a gold illustration of the Pokémon designed Planeja Tsuji. Dawn Wings and Dusk Mane cards were also available during the event.[29] In the regular Pokémon Trading Card Game, multiple versions of Necrozma have been released including Dawn Wings and Dusk Mane Necrozma GX Rainbow and Full Art, Ultra Necrozma GX Full Art, Prerelease Staff Promo, Ultra Necrozma GX Oversize and Ultra Necrozma GX Secret.[32]
Necrozma first debuted on the mobile game Pokémon Go at the 2024 Go Fest Global event, which was held from 13-14 July 2024. As part of the event, the developer Niantic distributed promotional codes on Instagram for free Fusion Energy, which were required to obtain the Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings forms of Necrozma in the game.[33][34] These forms were made available at the end of 2024 for a Raid Day on 14 December. Completing an event raid rewarded an encouter with Necrozma.[35] Certain mechanics from prior events also returned, including the same Solar Fusion and candy requirements to allow Necrozma to complete the fusion.[36][37] These fusions were irreversible once completed and dependent on the form, either attracted daytime Pokémon or nighttime Pokémon with an Adventure Effect ability.[38] If Necrozma was defeated in battle, its shiny encounter chance would increase.[39] For the Five-Star Raids event in August 2025, Necrozma was once again made available through Max Battles alongside a select few legendaries including Ho-Oh and Lugia.[40]
Promotion
[edit]Necrozma has received multiple forms of promotion, including in the form of a plush by The Pokémon Center.[41] A "Choose Your Pokémon Latte" promotion was also made available through Pokémon Cafes located in Nihonbashi and Shinsaibashi.[42][43] Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma were released as the lead Pokémon in the Forbidden Lights expansion of the Pokémon TCG. A limited edition Ultra Necrozma card sleeve was only available during this period.[44] To coincide with the release of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, a Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma Nintendo 3DS system theme was distributed.[45] An Ultra Necrozma "Figure Collection" was released in North America as part of the Pokémon TCG Online Dragon Majesty expansion.[46] Niantic released Necrozma themed gear and outfits as part of GO Fest 2024, these included a top, pants, shows and sunglasses, all in black colouring and purchasable using PokéCoins.[47] To promote the release of Necrozma in Pokémon Go, Niantic used the timing of a solar eclipse to announce the release. Necrozma was shown in a promotional video, released during the eclipse, emerging from an Ultra Wormhole as sunlight returned. Fans reacted positively to the timing of the promotion and the eclipse.[48][49]
In May 2019, One-Punch Man illustrator Yusuke Murata collaborated with The Pokémon Center to showcase a collection of Pokémon artwork.[50] The artwork featured the male protagonist of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire paired with the female protagonist of Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, using a team of Pokémon including Charizard and Lucario to fight against Ultra Necrozma. This was available on merchandise such as bags, t-shirts and wallets.[51] In an interview, Murata explained that he chose Ultra Necrozma due to its popularity and "for the complexity of its design", referring to it as a "sparkling dragon".[50]
Reception
[edit]The design of Necrozma and its alternate forms have received mixed criticism. IGN writer Casey Defreitas compared the base form Necrozma to PSR J2222−0137 B, a white dwarf star that is likely crystallised due to its temperature being less than 3000 kelvin.[14][52] Cassandra Ramos writing for RPGamer described the Dusk Mane and Dawn Wing forms of Necrozma as "flashy", saying "fans of these particular Pokémon may appreciate them."[53] Feeling that the creativity of Necrozma was a "low point" for Pokémon, writing for TheGamer, Joe Parlock described its design as "unoriginal", with "random shapes and angles", ultimately expressing disappointment that despite being a crystalline monster from another dimension, "it looks like an origami" with no "theme or point".[54] Lucas Kloberdanz-Dyck of Collider described the base form design as "abstract to the point of forgettable", however praised the Ultra form's "god-like design" as "one of the best in the series."[55] Cian Maher and Ryan Woodrow of USA Today similarly expressed distaste for Necrozma's appearance, however said that it "doesn't matter" due to its ability to "steal the appearances of its Legendary rivals" and originating from outer space.[56] Bogleech described the fused forms of Necrozma as a "parasitization", but acknowledged "that's the point."[57] GoHub writer Priom likened Ultra Necrozma's design to a seraph, specifically the six-wings that are seen on both.[18]
Serving as the final boss of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Ultra Necrozma's battle theme has received praise from fans, academics and reviewers. Composed by Junichi Masuda and arranged by Game Freak collaborator Tsuyoshi Ichinose, the theme was orchestrated using a pipe organ, based on an encounter with a deity. It was explained by Shigeru Ohmori that the original Necrozma battle music from Pokémon Sun and Moon was considered "unfinished", with bass drums being layered to showcase the instability of an incomplete piece.[5][58] A study analysed comments left on a YouTube video upload of the battle theme, attributing the impact of the music to the difficulty of the battle itself, comparing it to Megalovania whilst making note of its 11 million YouTube views.[59] Ryan Woodrow defined the battle theme as being centered around "intimidation", remarking that the "starting notes sound like a God is descending from on high to smite you." He put emphasis on the theme's chaotic instrumentation and the track "wanting" players to be extremely scared.[60] Despite feeling that the soundtrack of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon lacked the "presence and power" of previous entries in the series, Cassandra Ramos made an exception for the battle music of Ultra Necrozma, describing it as a "grand, scintillating track that blows every other [sic] pieces of music in this game and the original away with a Photon Geyser."[61] Vooks writer Oliver Brandt concurred with this by describing the music as "a wild, powerfully electric theme that perfectly conveys the sheer terror of the beast before you."[62]
Using a Dusk Mane Ultra Necrozma team at the 2019 Pokémon World Championships, Hirofumi Kimura placed second in the competition, losing to Naoto Mizobuchi but winning $7,500.[63][64][65] Inspired by this, Renero Alberto created an Ultra Necrozma team, placing in the Top 4 of a Premier Challenge. Using different versions of this team, Alberto and Mexican Worlds player Abby Orta continued to place in the Top 4 of various Premier Challenges during the 2019 season.[63] Smogon writer DMDW wrote about Necrozma and its forms for an article in The Flying Press webzine, highlighting the Dusk Mane form as one of the best Pokémon in the communities Uber tier thanks to its high base attack stat and ability to counter Pokémon it has a type disadvantage against. Conversely, the Dawn Wings form was criticised for being slow, having a poor defensive typing and being easily taken down by multiple threats.[66] Alvin "Jibaku" Hidayat and Brian Tein of GamePress described Necrozma and its forms as "tremendously powerful" in Pokémon Go. They considered Dawn Wings to be an "absolute monster", contrary to the main series competitive battling, emphasising its Moongeist Beam making it one of the strongest Ghost types on the mobile game. Dusk Mane is considered less effective, among better options.[67]
