What git command tells you the fork on github.com that wants to send you a pull request?

(Hint: there is none, only the gh tool and GitHub api know it)

That's because "the fork on github.com sending a PR" is very specifically a feature of GitHub, not git itself.

That's not something you need to know in order to checkout a pull request's branch at all.
