Questions people ask

Is Necrozma good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Necrozma has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Necrozma?
Legendary Pokemon are hard to get back once they leave rotation. Keep hundos, shinies, and one for the collection; transfer the weak duplicates.
Is Necrozma a good raid attacker?
Necrozma ranks #39 of 248 psychic attackers with 13.0 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Necrozma be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Necrozma is available from photobomb, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
