What's your favourite form of Arceus to use competitively? Do you ever use more than one on a team? How do you feel about the signature move Judgement? Which Arceus form do you think looks the best? (Hint: The answer is Dark) Discuss!

Dark Arceus definitely looks the best with his sleek design.

As for which I like the most in battle, it really depends. I think all are really good with their use of signature move, Judgement, which after a few Calm Mind boosts can devastate an entire team even if resisted. I will say though that normal Arceus is probably my favorite because it has access to STAB Extremespeed and can cover Ghosts with Shadow Claw. Normal Arceus can also take advantage of being able to hold an item to boost its power even more. They are all good though. Arceus Dragon and Arceus Steel also come to mind when I think of the best.

I usually prefer Steel-Arceus in Ubers, to bust too common Dragon Types. 'Nuff Said.

as for competitive battling I never really use arceas in that respect like he is good and all but I can never be bothered to level him up when he was added to my team later on in the game

I feel Arceus Dark or Dragon looks the coolest. I don't know why, they just appeal to me the most.

I don't play Ubers so I can't discuss that part of the thread. XD

Dark type Arceus is the best in terms of design but I use Steel-Type Arceus in battles to wall common Dragon-Types.

I like using Ghost Arceus because it's a good spinblocker outside of Giratina. It also poses the threat of Calm Mind + Judgment + Focus Blast.

I was honestly surprised that Arceus-Bug even existed but nonetheless I think my favourite would have to be Arceus-Psychic. With Psychic already being such an overpowered type, it can come in and set up a few Calm Minds before wrecking everything in its path. Or it could just start firing spoons at you. I've always liked it mainly because it was the first Arceus I got to work with and it managed to set up a pretty good sweep. Arceus-Fire under sun can rip through pretty much anything even if it hasn't boosted up yet. Arceus-Dark isn't too shabby either but when it comes to the strongest, Arceus-Steel is pretty overpowered with its useful resistances. :p

Arceus-Ghost @ Spooky Plate
Trait: Multitype
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature

- Swords Dance
- Shadow Force
- Brick Break
- Recover

This is my favourite Arceus set in Ubers. Arceus-Ghost's base 120 attack is already pretty good, and when boosted by Swords Dance, Shadow Force becomes ridiculously powerful. Brick Break takes care of Tyranitar, Heatran and Ferrothorn while Recover allows Arceus-Ghost to set up easier and stay alive. Some people can go for ExtremeSpeed but I personally don't like it because it's just too weak.
