How to get the Sunsteel Strike and Moongeist Beam adventure effects in Pokemon GO

The Pokemon GO character decides whether to use Solar or Lunar Fusion on Necrozma.

During Pokemon GO Fest 2024, players will have the opportunity to battle Necrozma in raids, and that Pokemon can then be in its Dawn Wings or Dusk Mane form. Once a player catches a Necrozma, they can collect Fusion Energy to fuse Necrozma with either Lunala or Solgaleo, transforming the Pokemon into those forms. (Players also have a limited time to receive free Fusion Energy.) Here’s a breakdown of the two forms:

Dawn Wings Necrozma: Necrozma who has merged with Lunala has this form. He knows Moongeist Beam.
Dusk Mane Necrozma: Necrozma, fused with Solgaleo, has this form. It knows Sunsteel Strike.
