[SET COMMENTS]
Aerilate Arceus-Flying takes advantage of its typing and ability to act as a reliable entry hazard remover and a defensive check to Ground-types such as Groudon and Poison Heal Arceus-Ground. Aerilate allows Boomburst to deal significant damage to those that don't resist it, such as Dondozo and Groudon. Rapid Spin provides guaranteed entry hazard removal, complemented by Arceus-Flying's immunity to Spikes and its ability to pressure common entry hazard setters. Nuzzle allows Arceus-Flying to punish offensive threats like Zacian-C and Imposter users, while Precipice Blades 2HKOes Miraidon and Zacian-C. Covert Cloak protects Arceus-Flying from secondary effects from moves like Nuzzle and Mortal Spin, while Sky Plate cannot be removed and provides more immediate power. Offensive partners like Zacian-C and Miraidon appreciate Arceus-Flying weakening their checks like Arceus-Steel and RegenVest Ting-Lu while also providing a Ground immunity. Arceus-Flying is offensively checked by Zacian-C and Miraidon, so defensive checks to these Pokemon like Dondozo and Ting-Lu are appreciated. In return, they appreciate Arceus-Flying removing entry hazards while they provide entry hazards. Tera Flying further boosts Arceus-Flying's damage output, whereas Tera Electric provides a resistance to Zacian-C's Gigaton Hammer and Miraidon's Electric-type STAB moves, allowing Arceus-Flying to retaliate with Precipice Blades.
