#116 Arceus - XY Black Star Promos (xyp)

Arceus is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 130 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. Its first attack, Type Switch, requires one Colorless Energy to activate, allowing the player to choose a type from a list of options and assign that type to Arceus until the end of their next turn. The second attack, Power Blast, costs four Colorless Energy and deals 120 damage while discarding an Energy attached to Arceus. The Pokémon has a Fighting-type weakness with double damage, making it vulnerable to such attacks. Arceus is part of the XY series, released in the XY Black Star Promos set on October 12, 2013, and is classified as a Promo rarity card. The card’s artwork is attributed to artist Naoki Saito, and its flavor text references a mythological origin, suggesting it predates the universe. This card’s design emphasizes versatility through its ability to adapt types, offering strategic flexibility in gameplay.
