Can you give me a quick rundown?
>>32814034
??? type
no weakness
no stab
>>32814043
Does this take up the Item Slot?
>>32814071
yes.
>>32814028
it would suck.by arceus form standards anyways.
you can get a "close enough" effect just by running normal type and then you get to enjoy using a better item. It'd be better than ice or bug arceus for example, but that's not saying much.
>>32814028
It would be one of the weaker forms. No weaknesses sounds nice, but it's not worth having no STAB or resists. Might be worth running for some very gimmicky stall sets, but otherwise he's better off just running as a Normal type if he wants to hit and get hit by most things for neutral damage.
It would probably be used for something like Rest/Toxic stall, or maybe a weird stat boosting set.
If it doesn't need an Item it definitely becomes an amazing stall wall.
>>32814088
Just imagine a ???um z set, no safe changes to it.
>>32814088
>>32814043
wouldn't judgement be stab?
>>32814110
Oh shit, you're right. That does change things a lot.
With a STAB 100 base power move coming off 120 Sp. Atk, ??? Arceus would be a god damned monster that nothing would really want to switch in on thanks to nothing in the game resisting it (and only one Pokemon being immune). Remember, Dragon was one of the best attacking types for a long time for a very similar reason. Probably becomes the best Arceus form, maybe even beating out Normal.
>>32814307
Scratch that, for sure beats out Normal Arceus.
Most viable ??? Arceus set probably becomes
>Calm Mind
>Judgement
>Recover
>Sub or Dark/Fire/Ghost/Rock/Flying coverage
or
>Rest
>Sleep Talk
>Calm Mind
>Judgment
What happens if it uses curse?
>>32814364
CM/Recover/Wisp/Judgement can be a thing. Protects it from both sides and you only worry about being toxicd
>>32814364
Recover/fresh > Resttalk
>>32817518Nothing because Arceus doesn't learn Curse.
>>32814028
judgment is crazy good on this thing. you know how good zygarde is with Tarrows in OU? it'd be that in ubers.
>>32814364
Normal Arceus is amazing because of Extremespeed you pleb.
>>32818853
I know you dumb kek.
Unresisted super strong STAB > STAB with decent power and priority
The difference is that only one has things that can switch in on it reasonably.
>>32818954
>STAB with decent power
Boy, stop
>>32814043
Perfect Defogger, I guess. Takes Arceus-Water's place.
>>32818954
Won't dethrone extreme speed arc
2 arc team go
>>32814028
Assuming the ??? Plate is a thing, it'd be on par with Extreme Killer Arceus.
Now, let's take this one step beyond, what if ??? was a full type, what moves would be of that type?
>>32819518
Bullshit gimmick moves like curse with diffferent effects depending on which type uses them
>>32820151
>tonnes of average moves like Bubble or Tickle, ones easily outclassed by others, turn out to have an additional ??? effect
>???-Arceus can run a seemingly useless moveset cause the moves now do completely different effects when used by it
>also means they can't be Mirror Move'd or reflected etc by other pokemon as they'd just become the regular crap moves
>"???-Arceus used Poison Powder - Toxic Spikes and Spikes were laid down!"
>"Espeon bounced it back - Espeon used Poison Powder!"
Its so crazy it might just work.
>>32820642
>>32820151
Brilliant
>>32820642
>Tickle used by ??? Types paralyze the enemy and lowers Defense/Attack
>>32819518
Curse
Hidden Power
Techno Blast
Judgement
Revelation Dance
You know, moves whose effect or type depends on the user's type.

E-Killer was ranked higher than Mega Fug in AG you moron.
>>32814028
It's not very effective against any type.
