Arceus-Water @ Splash Plate
Ability: Multitype
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 200 HP / 252 Def / 56 Spe
Bold Nature
- Judgment
- Dragon Tail
- Will-O-Wisp / Thunder Wave
- Recover
The God of Pokemon is an immovable ocean in the Ubers tier! Dragon Tail allows Arceus-Water to force out setup sweepers like Arceus and Necrozma-DM. Will-O-Wisp can completely shut down physical attackers like Zacian-C and Necrozma-DM, whereas Thunder Wave helps with speed control, neutralizing Pokemon like Koraidon and opposing Arceus formes. Tera Fairy lets Arceus-Water soak up powerful Dragon-type moves from the likes of Koraidon and Miraidon. 56 Speed EVs allows Arceus-Water to outspeed Adamant Kyurem-B and Rayquaza, allowing it to shut down these threats with a status condition. Arceus-Water is weak to Toxic Spikes from Gliscor or Eternatus, so it greatly appreciates a Toxic Spikes absorber like Eternatus. Arceus-Water needs to be particularly wary of threats like Miraidon, as it can come in on anything that isn’t Dragon Tail, and Kyogre, which can accrue boosts with Calm Mind and threaten it with Thunder. Teammates like Ting-Lu and Clodsire are strong pairings with Arceus-Water, as they can check these problematic Pokemon. Ho-Oh also pairs well with Arceus-Water, as they can share the responsibility of checking Necrozma-DM, Zacian-C, and Koraidon.
