Collector Insights
Arceus is a Pokémon with 80 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. The first, Ripple Swell, allows players to search their deck for up to six basic Energy cards if they have six Arceus in play, each of a different type. These Energy cards are then attached to separate Pokémon in play, after which the deck is shuffled. The second attack, Sky Spear, requires three Colorless Energy to deal 80 damage to an opponent’s Pokémon, bypassing Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon. It also removes all Energy cards attached to Arceus and sends them to the Lost Zone. The card was released as a Promo rarity in the Platinum Promos set on October 1, 2008. Its artwork is credited to artist Mitsuhiro Arita. This card’s abilities emphasize strategic resource management and direct damage capabilities.
