Sunsteel Strike And Moongeist Ray are the Adventure effects For Twilight Mane Necrozma And Necrozma Dawn Wings retrospectively in Pokémon Go.
Adventure effects provide additional information useful bonuses to your time in Pokémon Go and were first introduced in Go Tour: Sinnoh in February 2024 with The roar of time and the tear in space. While these adventure effects focused on the curvature of time and space, Sunsteel Strike and Moongeist give you night and day themed powers. (So we bend time again, really…)
Like previous Adventure effects, each one is tied to a specific Pokémon – Sunsteel Strike for Twilight Mane Necrozma and Moongeist Beam for Necrozma Dawn Wings. For this reason, you will need to use Fusion to create one of these Pokémon.
Below we look at the Bonuses and Cost for Sunsteel Strike and Moongeist Beam in Pokémon Gonext to How Adventure Effects Work.

How to Use an Adventure Effect in Pokémon Go
To use an adventure effect in Pokémon Go, you must first make sure that you have a Pokémon that knows the attack linked to that effect. In this case, these Pokémon are Necrozma Twilight Mane for Sunsteel Strike And Necrozma Dawn Wings for Moongeist Beam. If, however, you wish to use the other adventure effects, you will need Origin Forme Dialga to Roar of Time and Origin Forme Palkia for Spacial Rend.
Before we begin, it's important to note that neither Solar Steel Strike nor Lunar Spirit Ray can be taught via a Charged TM or an Elite Charged TM. Instead, Necrozma Duskmane and Necrozma Dawnwings will automatically learn their Adventure Effect moves after being created via FusionThis means you don't need to hunt down a specific Pokémon that knows this attack.
Another thing to remember is that you can only use one Adventure Effect at a time. So if you've activated Sunsteel Strike to evolve a daytime Pokémon at night, you can't use Moongeist Beam to increase the number of nighttime spawns. Instead, you'll either have to wait for the Adventure Effect to end or end it yourself to use another one. Thankfully, Pokémon Go will warn you when you try to use a second Adventure Effect, but it's worth keeping this rule in mind if you plan on using the effects often.
With these rules established, let's see how to use an adventure effect in Pokémon Go.
The first step is to find the Pokémon whose Adventure Effect you want to use in your Pokémon Storage. (However, in the case of Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma, technically the first step is to create them via Fusion.) After finding the Pokémon, open its dedicated summary page and scroll down until you find the Adventure Effect section under its moveset.
Press “Use” to open the window where you decide how much Stardust and Necrozma Candy you want to spend on the adventure effect.
The more Stardust and Necrozma Candy you are willing to part with, the more time you will have for this adventure effect. The timers for Solar Steel Strike and Moon Spirit Ray increase in 10-minute increments up to a maximum of two hours. This time can be further increased up to 24 hours in total. However, extending the time to its limit will cost you a large amount of Stardust and Necrozma Candy, so if you are planning on doing so, we highly recommend making sure you can take full advantage of the adventure effect to ensure you do not waste any resources.
After setting the duration of the Adventure Effect, simply press “Use” again and watch a short cutscene of your Pokémon using the attack. Congratulations! The Adventure Effect is now active and you can freely enjoy its bonuses! At least for now, as the on-screen timer will turn off to mark the end of the effect’s duration.
Good luck with Sunsteel Strike and Moongeist Beam!
