    Which Arceus form do you prefer?

    Arceus is arguably the most powerful, most versatile, and most well-balanced Pokemon, because well, what do you know, It's The Pokemon equivalent of God. Arceus can take on 17 different forms, depending on which type of plate it holds. Question is, what is your favorite form of Arceus?
     
    I like normal Arceus the best. With Swords Dance and STAB Extremespeed it is a very deadly Pokemon.
     
    Poison! It's not the best by a long shot and it certainly isn't the prettiest (Ice/Fire/Water <3), but giving access to a Poison-type legendary is more than enough to win me over. It's a bit of a waste of an incredibly strong Pokémon, but being able to use a Poison type as a legendary is worth it. And the purple is cute!
     
    Arceus Psychic anybody? I've used it before and it just rips through any team without trouble. Its so unbelievably bulky that I find it incredibly fun to use while the opponent curses in frustration. Trying to knock it out? Almost impossible with Calm Mind. Also that pink colouring is pretty badass I have to say. I haven't used many of the other formes either but Arceus Psychic is one darn cool goat.
     
    Dragon. Resists a lot, not a lot that can resist it, and it just looks awesome. STAB Dragon-type Judgment with the power boost from the Plate tears through anything, regardless of its resistances. It does have a bit of trouble with Blissey, but that's why I always run Extremespeed on Arceus.
     
    Arceus Dark It just looks epic
     
    Do you like Arceus? Which forms of Arceus have you used? Which is your favourite form of Arceus? Base the decision on design, typing and uniqueness, and whatever other factors you find important from a non-competitive battling point of view.

    Spoiler:
     
    I honestly prefer Arceus as a normal type, rocking it's Ultimate Killer set of SD/EQ/Shadow Claw/Extremespeed, even though it wasn't EV'd and probably had reeeaaaly bad IV's. I had an Arceus that was Adamant natured (iirc) so I went around killing everything with it, lol.
     
    I have used them all and I still believe that Normal Arceus is the best because of the reasons that Livewire stated above. I also have found Arceus Dragon, Steel, and Water to be the best simply because of the resistances that the first 2 have and I love water types <3 I know ingame with Arceus anything will work haha, but I found these to be the best!

    Arceus Dark though takes the cake on design. It looks so sleek and sexy unlike most of the others and really wins this with no competition.
