Necrozma (game): Difference between revisions

'''{{p|Necrozma}}''' (Japanese:'''ネクロズマ''' ''Necrozma'') referred to as the '''Blinding One''' (Japanese:'''かがやきさま''' ''Radiant One'') by the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] is a character introduced in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}. Known as the '''pillager of light''' in mythology serves as one of the main threats in the game, looking to take the light of the [[Alola]] [[region]].

A Necrozma makes a small role in Sun and Moon. Whether this is the same Necrozma found in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon or a different one altogether is unknown.

After the player has caught all the [[Ultra Beast]]s found in Alola, they will tell [[Anabel]] and [[Wicke]] at [[Aether Paradise]] about their work. [[Looker]] of the [[International Police]] comes into the room, notifying the group of an Ultra Beast that is colored black but was somehow refracting light like a prism. However, the International Police has stated that all the Ultra Beasts they have identified have been caught. The player goes to [[Ten Carat Hill]] to encounter the mysterious Pokémon, the same way they did with the Ultra Beasts. This Pokémon turns out to be the [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] Necrozma. If the player catches Necrozma, they can talk to Looker on {{rt|2|alola}}'s motel and he will identify the Pokémon if the player tells him as having accomplished the mission. Looker understands that the description matches perfectly what he has said before, Necrozma is unlikely to be an Ultra Beast.

While the encounter method is the same as the Ultra Beasts, Necrozma is unaffected by [[Beast Ball]]s, and its name appears while encountered rather than being ??? causing it to be registered as seen in the [[Pokédex]].

In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Necrozma's role is much different, being the main species focus of the video games, along side [[Nebby]].

In Alola's ancient history, Necrozma was once viewed as the "Blinding One" (Japanese: かがやきさま ''Radiant One'') who's light was scattered across [[Ultra Space]], going through [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and into the Alola region. This light, now known as [[Z-Power]], would pour through Ultra Wormholes and into other [[dimensions]], creating the energy used for [[Z-Moves]] and the aura surrounding that of the [[Ultra Beast]]s and [[Totem Pokémon]]. The people of [[Ultra Megalopolis]] attempted to gain control of Necrozma in order to recreate the light it shares. This has caused Necrozma to become injured and aggressive, transforming into a black prism-like body putting the Pokémon in constant pain, seeking out the light that it once had. According to [[Professor Kukui]], pieces of its body were chipped off and scattered creating the [[Z-Crystal]]s and [[Sparkling Stone]]s that are used to form [[Z-Ring]]s and [[Z-Power Ring]]s found in Alola.

Necrozma, looking to devour Alola's light, had put the region into darkness. Necrozma was met with the [[guardian deities|guardian tapu]] and their [[Legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|US}}/{{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|UM}}, creating battle with them at [[Tapu Village]]. Necrozma had succeeded in this fight against the Legendary Pokémon, resulting in a transformation where Necrozma had taken over Solgaleo/Lunala's light, turning it into Dusk Mane{{sup/7|US}}/Dawn Wings{{sup/7|UM}} Necrozma. Now dubbed the "Pillager of Light" by the king of Alola, the Tapu and a youth had fought against Necrozma, using the Z-Power from Z-Crystals and Sparkling Stones. History of Necrozma was erased from history and most, but not all historical books written about the Pokémon were burned.

During the main plot of {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, Necrozma was being researched by the [[Aether Foundation]] and members of the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] under orders of the Aether Foundation's president, [[Lusamine]]. Lusamine had been told history about Necrozma, and it's escape from Megalo Tower, hoping to prevent its appearance in Alola. In the process, her and the Ultra Recon Squad began research on a {{p|Cosmog}} who can create Ultra Wormholes. With Cosmog's power, she can go into Ultra Space and encounter Necrozma on her own. Knowing that overuse of this power will harm the Cosmog, [[Lillie]] had taken [[Nebby]] away from [[Aether Paradise]] with Lusamine ordering the Ultra Recon Squad to track down the girl and Nebby. Throughout the story, the player will encounter two members of the Recon Squad who will provide them with information on Cosmog, Necrozma, and any relevant history between them and Alola.

Necrozma first appears in person once the player and Lillie make it to [[Poni Island|Poni]]'s altar. After the events of Lusamine using Nebby's power at Aether Paradise and leaving into Ultra Space, the two summon the Legendary Pokémon with Alola's ritual: by evolving Nebby into Solgaleo{{sup/7|US}}/Lunala{{sup/7|UM}}. Lillie and the player are amazed by this, only to be interrupted by an Ultra Wormhole appearing before them. [[Team Skull]]'s Boss, [[Guzma]] is dumped from the wormhole, followed by Lillie's mother, Lusamine. Lusamine warns Lillie to stay away from the monster, with Necrozma reaching through the Ultra Wormhole and making its way into Alola. Nebby takes action and fights against Necrozma, resulting in a loss. Necrozma pins down Nebby to the point of immobility as it absorbs Nebby's light, transforming into Dusk Mane{{sup/7|US}}/Dawn Wings{{sup/7|UM}} Necrozma. Light is being drawn from Alola, covering Poni Island in particular with darkness.

The player fights against the now transformed Necrozma and wins. As a form of retreat, Necrozma summons more Ultra Wormholes across the Alola region, unleashing multiple Ultra Beasts and alerting the region's guardians. Necrozma returns into Ultra Megalopolis and attempts to revert back into its original state. Horrified at the events that just occurred the group is met with the Ultra Recon Squad, who provide information on where Necrozma had run off to and what should be done. The player is given the squadron's Lunala{{sup/7|US}}/Solgaleo{{sup/7|UM}} to [[Ultra Warp Ride|traverse through Ultra Space]] and makes their way to Ultra Megaloplis. Being informed by two other members of the Ultra Recon Squad, the player is told that Necrozma is at Megalo Tower. They make their way up through the illuminated building where they see Necrozma going through [[Ultra Burst]], transforming into Ultra Necrozma, initiating a battle with it. Necrozma in engulfed with Z-Power, being illuminated by a yellow aura and all of its stats raised. After a difficult fight with the member of the [[light trio]], Necrozma is defeated and light shines down on Alola once again. Nebby is freed from Necrozma's grasp and it and the player go home.

Necrozma's disappears, only to be discovered again by the player while traveling up [[Mount Lanakila]]. The weakened Necrozma is found in a crater, and seeks light, leaving he player the option to choose to activate a battle with a higher catch rate than it did in Sun and Moon. After the fight, Necrozma leaves a piece of [[Ultranecrozium Z]], which it can use to temporarily return to its Ultra Necrozma form through Ultra Burst. In the post game, Lillie and Nebby can be found on [[Mahalo Trail]], who suggests that Necrozma is better happy with control of Nebby's light, offering the Pokémon to the player.
