There are 18 Arceus formes, with each forme being of a specific type. To differentiate them, Game Freak gave them all different colour schemes. Some of them, such as:
are beautiful!
Others, such as:
are absolutely disgusting.
What I would like to do for this article is critique the colour schemes of every Arceus. This is supposed to be a humourous piece, so I would try and talk from the perspective of a die-hard fashion critic.
For instance, Dark Arceus, which has an incredibly edgy black and red scheme, gives off a very Gothic aura that reminds of stereotypical groups of Goth girls that sit in the corner of every cafeteria depicted on American television. However, Psychic Arceus, which has an absolutely disgusting pink and green colour scheme, is - much like in Ubers - a complete tryhard, desperately going for that 80s disco aesthetic but failing miserably.
I play Ubers and am pretty acquainted with the roles and viability of all of the Arceus formes, so I could refer to how viable they are in the Ubers metagame to some degree if you'd like. For example, I could say something like how Water Arceus is a stunner both on the catwalk and in the ORAS Ubers metagame, while Bug Arceus is both unsalvageably ugly and competitively unviable - dooming it to both fashion and Ubers obscurity.
