Necrozma requires the light of either {{p|Solgaleo}} or {{p|Lunala}} in order to undergo Ultra Burst. Ultra Burst has been absent from the [[core series]] as of [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], however it still appears in [[spin-off]] games and other media such as [[Pokémon Masters EX]].
Necrozma requires an overwhelming amount of light and [[Z-Power]] to undergo Ultra Burst. Ultra Burst has been absent from the [[core series]] as of {{g|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!}}, however it still appears in [[spin-off]] games and other media such as [[Pokémon Masters EX]].

===History===
Ultra Burst is a transformation unique to {{p|Necrozma}}, with Ultra Necrozma being considered the true appearance of Necrozma.
Many years before the events of {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, Necrozma took this shape, offering its light to many worlds, including within the [[Alola]] [[region]]. This light became the [[Z-Power]] and aura found in [[Totem Pokémon]] and [[Z-Move]]s. Necrozma was given an unknown injury, transforming it into a black crystalline shape that it is currently known as. It can revert to its true appearance when it has absorbed an overwhelming amount of light energy. It can get this energy from {{p|Solgaleo}} or {{p|Lunala}} and by absorbing [[Z-Power]] into its system.
Necrozma had once taken back its light before and performed Ultra Burst before the events of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. In Alola's history, Necrozma had once taken over the light of Solgaleo{{sup/7|US}} or Lunala{{sup/7|UM}}, and was asked to be defeated by the king of Alola. During the events of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, a {{ga|Necrozma}} attempts to steal the light of Alola, taking over the body of [[Nebby]]. In the process, had escaped into [[Ultra Megalopolis]], taking back the light it once claimed as its own and using Nebby's light to Ultra Burst into Ultra Necrozma. Necrozma appears to have undergone Ultra Burst without the use of an [[Ultranecrozium Z]] in its match against the {{player}}.

In order to undergo Ultra Burst, Necrozma needs to be in either its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dusk Mane}} or {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dawn Wings}} forms and be holding an [[Ultranecrozium Z]]. Once these conditions are met, the player must select a specific icon in order to activate the transformation. Once one turn has passed, Necrozma may use the exclusive [[Z-Move]] {{m|Light That Burns the Sky}}, provided it knows the move {{m|Photon Geyser}}.
In order to undergo Ultra Burst, Necrozma needs to be in either its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dusk Mane}} or {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dawn Wings}} forms and be holding an [[Ultranecrozium Z]]. This is in contrary to lore, where the [[Z-Crystal]] is held by the {{player}} instead. Once the conditions are met, the player must select the ''Ultra Burst'' icon in order to activate the transformation. Once one turn has passed, Necrozma may use the exclusive [[Z-Move]] {{m|Light That Burns the Sky}}, provided it knows the move {{m|Photon Geyser}}.


Ultra Burst may only be activated once per battle; any other Necrozma in the user's party will not be able to become Ultra Necrozma, even if it is also holding an Ultranecrozium Z. Necrozma will revert to its original form if it [[Fainting|faints]] in battle and cannot activate Ultra Burst again, even if it is [[revive]]d.

Ultra Burst is similar to both [[Mega Evolution]] and [[Primal Reversion]], but instead, requires a [[Ultranecrozium Z]] as opposed to a [[Mega Stone]] or an Orb.
