How Viable is an Extreme Arceus?(USUM)?

May. 10, 2019



My ExtremeSpeed killer Arceus is a god(legit) . On Pokémon X it destroys everything! I wonder, due to the new amount of tanky Pokémon on sun/moon / ultra sun/ ultra moon, is my Arceus still going to do well, or should I keep it in X/Y.

It’s adamant nature /w recover,swords dance, Extreme speed and Shadow Claw trained in HP and Attack. I got it a while ago on Pokémon Pearl. I heard they will be shutting down the X/Y servers in a few years I wonder if it’s worth using in SM/USUM.

(When answering please keep in mind this Arceus carries my entire team on X and I won’t do very well without it).

Arceus is certainly a viable sweeper, mainly because it has the strongest extremespeedpriority in the whole game. 120/120/120 defenses and one weakness means Arceus can also take a hit. I’d recommend replacing recover with earthquake to cover rock, steel, and Groudon and giving it a Chople berry to check Lucario and Marshadow more easily.
