Plenty of companies and social media users made posts about the total solar eclipse on April 8, but very few used the event as effectively as Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/em>\u2014which used the perfect theming to tease the long-awaited arrival of Necrozma to the game. <\/p>
In a video posted to the official Pok\u00e9mon Go <\/em>X feed<\/a>, the eclipse takes place but, as it passes, an Ultra Wormhole opens up and a prismatic shadow takes its place. The silhouette of Necrozma is clearly seen before the screen fades and a logo teaser for Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/em><\/a> <\/em>Fest 2024 drops. <\/p>
Since Ultra Beasts began appearing in Pok\u00e9mon Go <\/em>in June 2022, Necrozma has been the ultimate end goal\u2014even if it isn\u2019t technically an Ultra Beast itself. Necrozma was initially teased back in November 2022<\/a> and recently discovered to have files in the game<\/a> thanks to data mines. With the recent addition of Poipole<\/a> to the game along with a resurgence of other Ultra Beasts like Celesteela in raids<\/a>, it already looked like Niantic was building up for the Prism Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s debut ahead of this teaser.\u00a0<\/p>
If Necrozma is going to be the big new Legendary inclusion for Go Fest 2024 at its in-person events in June and the Global event in July, it’s unlikely we will see its alternate forms just yet. Niantic will probably save those fusions for a future event, just like we have yet to see Black Kyurem or White Kyurem officially added to the game\u2014though it was accidentally released in December<\/a> for a moment.\u00a0<\/p>
We should hear more about Go Fest 2024 plans and content in the coming weeks leading up to a more thematic reveal once we see the next season of Pok\u00e9mon Go <\/em>unveiled closer to June 1 when the World of Wonder ends<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
