Lugia can only be obtained through five-star raids in Pokemon Go. You must fight the Legendary and then catch it using the limited number of Premier Balls granted to you based on how well you performed in the raid; if you fail, try again.

Lugia will be accessible beginning September 1 at 10 a.m. local time and ending September 14 at 10 a.m. local time.

Once captured, the Johto ‘mon will have already learned the Aeroblast Flying move, which is effective against Fighting, Bug, and Grass types.

Shiny Lugia in Pokemon Go:

Players, rejoice: Shiny Lugia has arrived in Pokemon Go. The only method to obtain it is to take part in five-star raids, where you have a small chance of getting the rare variation.

If you beat a Legendary ‘mon but it isn’t Shiny, you’ll have to fight another until you find one. Best wishes!
