Arceus-Ground @ Earth Plate
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Judgment
- Ice Beam
- Calm Mind
- Recover
Arceus-Ground makes for an excellent Calm Mind user in Ubers thanks to its great coverage in STAB Judgement + Ice Beam, power, and ease of setup. This ease of setup is due to Arceus-Ground's natural bulk, typing, and Recover, which also lets it check prominent Pokemon like unboosted Primal Groudon and Zygarde-C throughout a game. Its Speed tier is notable as well, as it lets it outrun prominent Pokemon like Primal Groudon and Necrozma-DM. However, this set struggles with Pokemon like Ho-Oh and Arceus-Water, faster Pokemon, and Toxic, which cripples this set severely. Pokemon like Mega Salamence and Ferrothorn are good partners due to their ability to handle Ho-Oh and Arceus-Water respectively. Choice Scarf Xerneas is also a good partner, as it provides a role as a cleric while helping to handle faster Pokemon.
