I have an event arceus?

2 minute read

So should I keep its event moves? (Special rend and roar of time) or should I give it a real moveset? And if I do give it a real moveset could I relearn the move by a move relearner?

Spacial Rend:Dragon/Special100 Power95 accuracyHigh crit ratio

Spacial Rend might not be as powerful as Roar of Time, but you don’t need recharging, and it only has a 5% chance of missing. It also has 1/8 chance of critting, so it kinda helpful.*Roar of Time**Dragon/Special150 power90 accuracyUser must recharge

Roar of Time is much more powerful than Spacial Rend, but forces you to recharge in a turn, so its really not the best to keep it. However, If you do want it, then keep a bulky Arceus for the recharge.Either way, keep both Spacial Rend and Roar of time if you (really, really) want to. I would recommend a Draco Plate Arceus or a normal Arceus. Either way, its really up to you.On the other hand, some of the moves below are TMs, and some are move learners.

Give it a Moveset. the movesets below could possibly help:

If youDOwant to keep the moves:

Draco Plate Arceus (Special Attacker):Arceus@Draco PlateTimid or Modest Nature (Sweeper or not)Ability: Multitype252 Special Attack/252 Speed/4 Defense-Spacial Rend-Roar of Time-Calm Mind-Flamethrower

Spacial RendandRoar of Timeare the event moves, and get STAB as well.Calm Mindis for boosting the Special Attack and Special Defense.Flamethroweris for Ice Types.

Bulky Draco Plate Arceus(Special Attacker):Arceus@Draco PlateBold NatureAbility: Multitype252 Defense or Special Defense/252 Special Attack/4 HP-Spacial Rend- Roar of Time-Dragon Pluse-Substitute

Roar of TimeandSpacial Rendare STAB and event moves.Dragon Pluseis STAB.Substituteis for that bulk.If youDON’T* want to use the event moves:

Physical/Special Sweeper:Arceus@Choice Band/Choice Specs/Choice ScarfJolly/Timid NatureAbility: Multitype252 Attack or Special Attack/252 Speed/ 4 HP-Extreme Speed/Hyper Voice or Echoed Voice-Giga Impact/Hyper Beam-Fly/Blizzard-Retaliate/Focus Blast

Extreme Speedis STAB, and Arceus goes first every time/Hyper Voiceis STAB/Echoed Voicegets stronger each turn and is STAB.Giga Impactis STAB/Hyper Beamis STAB.Flyis coverage/Blizzardis random, but can be useful.Retaliateis STAB and gets stronger if one of your Pokemon fainted in the last turn/Focus Blastis random and will probably help you with those who resist Normal Types.

Bulky Arceus:Arceus@LeftoversRelaxed Nature252 Defense/252 HP/4 Special Defense-Substitute-Giga Impact-Reflect/ Light Screen-Zen Headbutt

Substituteis for setting up the bulk behind.Giga Impactfor STAB.Reflect/Light Screenis to annoy Special or Physical Attackers.Zen Headbuttis for coverage, and for flinching to this mighty thing.***Well that took long and hard.Sources:http://pokemondb.net/move/spacial-rendhttp://pokemondb.net/move/roar-of-timehttp://pokemondb.net/mechanics/natures(For determining what kind of Arceus you have)http://pokemondb.net/sprites/arceus(Spriting)http://pokemondb.net/pokedex/arceus(Movesets and all)

Firstly, you can relearn event moves (proof). Secondly, Roar Of Time isn’t worth it as you have to miss a turn completely and are vulnerable (and you can’t switch out). Spacial Rend however, is a nice Dragon move on Arceus, as it doesn’t cut your special attack like Draco Meteor and is better than Dragon type Judgement because of the increased Crit rate. Here’s a “real moveset” if you want one:

Arceus-Steel@Iron Plate252 Sp.A, 252 Spd, 4 HpAbility: MultitypeNature: Timid/Modest-Recover (reliable healing)-Spacial Rend (Event move)-Judgement (STAB, deals with fairies immune to Dragon )-Psyshock (For special walls)
