Arceus-Flying @ Sky Plate
Ability: Multitype
Tera Type: Poison
EVs: 248 HP / 204 Def / 56 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Iron Defense
- Judgment
- Recover
Arceus-Flying is making its Judgment! Due to Miraidon's ban, Arceus-Flying finally has its day to be a nice late-game sweeper. Flying-type Judgment has no immunities, making Arceus-Flying a strong setup sweeper in conjunction with Calm Mind. Tera Poison is used to let Arceus-Flying block Toxic from Eternatus and Clodsire while remaining a check to Koraidon. The given EVs and nature allow it to outspeed Jolly Rayquaza, the Kyurem formes, and Zekrom. However, Arceus-Flying needs multiple uses of Calm Mind to be effective, so it can be difficult to set up in the faces of Ho-Oh, Ting-Lu, and Giratina-O. Other formes of Arceus, Deoxys-A, and Mewtwo can use Taunt to block its moves, so teammates that can pressure these Pokemon are appreciated. These include Kyogre, Zacian-C, Eternatus, and Koraidon. Ribombee is also a good companion because Sticky Web can mitigate Arceus-Flying’s Speed issue while fitting well on the hyper offensive teams Arceus-Flying fits on. Rayquaza is another good partner for creating a Flying-type spam team structure, which can overwhelm common shared checks such as Ho-Oh and Arceus.
