Maybe you should not be saying that out loud because everybody knows that people keep answering questions like these.

Answer 1

@Spooky Plate
252 Hp / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (-Atk +Spd)
-Judgment
-Focus Blast
-Calm Mind
-Recover

This guy is great.
2 calm minds make a scarfogres water spout a 3 hit ko.
Judgment hits most of ubers very hard, and when it doesnt Focus Blast does.
He provides good synergy for teams and prooves a sucsessful spin blocker.

Answer 2

Dragon type Arceus
Item: Draco Plate
Moves:
Judgement (A super-affective move)
Gravity (to keep pokemon who know Fly or Bounce down)
Recover (so you don't have to use potions or anything)
Draco Meteor (another super-effective move and the held plate powers it up)

Hope this helps!
This moveset is actually used by my Arceus and it helps with battles with people who keep using Fly or Bounce.

Answer 3

I'll give a shot at this.
Arceus @Zap Plate

EVs:252 Sp. Atk 252 Atk 4 def
Moveset:
Focus Blast
Ice Beam
Earthquake
Payback

I mostly took advantage of it learning practictly every move. It's type is electric beacause it has only one weakness, ground, wich is covered by it's moveset. Focus Blast covers 5 diffrent types, wich are normal, ice, dark, rock, and steel.Ice Beam also covers a lot of types wich include grass, it's weakness ground,flying, and dragon types.Earthquake also covers a lot, a total of 3, these types are fire, electric, and poison. PAyback I put in here to cover two types on the E4 that are ghost and psychic.With this moveset and type, this Pokemon has 1 weakness wich is covered by one of it's moves. It also covers every type but
3 wich are water, fighting, and bug types.

Comments

Walled by Palkia, and Earthquake also hits Rock and Steel types, so that is definitely a more reloable way to hit those 2 types as Focus Blast has a most annoying tendency to miss.

yay! ben has become an expert!!

---

What's another move that arceus can learn that's a fighting type move?

---

I use a fighting move to cover normal,dark, and Ice

Answer 4

Arceus - Bug @ Insect Plate

Trait: Multitype

EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

• Swords Dance
• X-Scissor
• Recover
• Iron Tail / Waterfall

Loely bugs :3. Swords Dance will boost up your attack stat. X-Scissor is STAB. Not many will be surviving this. It provides solid damage, Mewtwo and Darkrai will go down. Recover heals when in a bind. Iron Tail / Waterfall are your coverage attacks. Pesky and annoying Arceus Ground / Rock :P.

Comments

Don't use Arceus-Bug. Use Genesect ;D

Answer 5

I would have it like this

Item:Light clay
Ability:Multitype
Nature:Calm
Role:Team helper
Light screen- Reduces special damage
Reflect- Reduces physical damage
Toxic/Will-o-wisp/Thunder wave- Makes the opponents Pokemon weaker
Recover- Keeps it in good shape

Comments

no offense but that moveset is horrible
1. It doesn't have its signature move.
2. It doesn't have an attack move.

I know but i have tried this set and it really works and is a good teamhelper

Answer 6

Arceus@spooky plate
nature: modest(+spatt -att.)
EV's: 252spatt/ 252speed/ 4hp
moves:
judgement
focus blast/ signal beam
ice beam/ flamethrower/ psychic/ thunderbolt/ energy ball (these are for the last 2 moves, use whichever you prefer)

Answer 7

**PHYSICAL GOD OF SAND*

Or

Arceus: stone plate/earth plate
Nature: jolly
Evs: 4 hp 252 atk 252 spd
Ability: multitype
Swords dance
Stone edge
Earthquake
Extreme speed/shadow claw

Move over excadrill there's a new sand sweeper in town and he's ready to bring his divine power to all his opponents. Stone plate can be used for the 50% special defense boost in sand while earth plate can be used for the "better" STAB. Anyway this simple yet powerful set is quite usable in and out of sand, and can handle multiple meta game threats such as zekrom, reshiram, and the many flying types. Swords dance is the standard boosting move for a physical attacker and the edge quake combo provides superb coverage. In the last slot you can either run extreme speed, which is the preferred move, for the nearly guaranteed first move, or shadow claw, for the numerous ghost and psychic types in ubers, most notably giratina. Good teammates for this arceus include shaymin, who can deal with opposing weather setters, and tyranitar, who sets up sand and can deal with giratina and other such bulky ghosts/psychics.

Answer 8

Go with Arceus Dark @ Dread Plate

Nature: Jolly
Ability: Multitype
Sludge Bomb-Covers the pesky grass types
SolarBeam- Covers the Water, Ground, Rock, Etc.
Judgement-STAB
Overheat-Covers grass, Bug, ETC.
