Talk:Arceus (Pokémon)

Due to special coding in place in the article to illustrate Arceus's Formes, as affected by its ability, Multitype, certain displays will change showing Arceus as though it were holding the Insect Plate, therefore being a Template:Type2 Pokémon. This will only affect the type-themed color displays, the Pokéathlon stats entry shown on the page itself, the type effectiveness entry shown on the page itself, the moves noted as STAB for this Pokémon, the sprite shown in the evobox, the sprites shown in the spritebox, and the plate sprite shown below the spritebox. This changes every second, so when the time comes, click here to return to the page and change the display.

Hmmm....

Is the color and box from the Tutoring Moveset (I think) supposed to be expanding past the sprite box? I see the Rock type stuff, if that matters. (No, I don't think it is my browser, other Pokémon's pages are still fine) The Dark Fiddler - Nos hablamos? 14:13, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

I have fixed it stop the problem was that he closed the time, not the tutor box stopDCM_{((曲奇饼妖怪Spy on My Edits))}

Out of intrest

Has anyone tried to see if Arceus' ??? type forme is in PBR? Zsaberslash 20:52, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

And possibly in Platinum, as well? In a method other than cheating? --Bulbapedian - Talk 20:55, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Picture

Instead of fanart ...shouldn't we use something OFFICIAL even if its just a PBR screenshot, or a sprite --LilRed 00:11, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

The fanart fulfills our needs best. Besides, the official artwork is only a couple of months away now. --FabuVinny ^{|Talk Page|} 00:32, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

If they'll release an official artwork of Arceus, does it mean that Arceus is officially released also?Palkia38 06:54, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes, this is what it would seem like. It's predicted to be released at a similar time to the next movie. — THE TROM — 06:56, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

How on Earth did whoever drew that picture get it so perfect when the sprite is so tiny? They must have got something wrong surely? Taromon777 19:36, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes, the artist, Seyanni, did get several details wrong from what we now know about the features of Arceus. First of all, the face has two lines running across it, not just one. There are grey triangles on the inside of each of its legs, and the red parts of its eyes have black slits, like Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina. In addition, the wheel is more pointed and the green circles he/she drew are actually gems. So, really, like I've said before, this fanart is far from accurate, but now there's really no need to replace it (though I've given the site several months to use my own artwork (http://xous54.deviantart.com/art/Arceus-Final-106548360), which is, of course, more accurate) when Arceus is set to be revealed on the 15th (with a leak anywhere from the 12th to the 14th). (Of course, the Pokémon set to be revealed could also be something else.) Xous 18:16, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Reveal

Looking at Darkrai and Shaymin's, it seems that the reveal will be just around February 14, 2009. Isn't that convenient. So I'd like to notify you all... don't bother with it until then. TTEchidna 06:52, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Actually, it is expected to be leaked today, and officially revealed on January 19.--Mence Master 13:47, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Listen to the Editor-in-Chief. Don't bother until the reveal. The Dark Fiddler - Nos hablamos? 13:54, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

And TTE is right. I think he has psychic abilities. -Anangryzapdos 19:03, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

???-type Explanation Doesn't Make Sense

One of our members brought up a good point about the explanation (in this article) about why Nintendo put the ??? Arceus in the game. We think that it was put in because Nintendo's code for Multitype required a sprite to be filled for every single type. This is our best guess, and I certainly think it's more plausible than "preventing game crashes for hackers." Hackers can crash the game quite easily otherwise - why would they prevent it in one way when we can do it in a thousand other ways? Remember, Nintendo doesn't care for or even acknowledge hackers. -Coolbho3000 00:33, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Following that logic, why put a vestigial Safari Zone in GSC? Why make it harder to access MissingNo in Yellow and impossible in FrLg? Like it or not, Nintendo has put many things in for the purpose of preventing crashes. Kiryu 04:59, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

The Safari Zone in G/S/C was there because it was originally supposed to be in there, but they decided later not to include it. And Missingno. was excluded from later games because it was a glitch that was accessible without cheats. They took it out for the same reason that they hire game testers: they want their games to be as glitch-free as possible. And it did cause crashes, but it could be accessed without cheats, unlike the ???-type Arceus. I agree with Coolbho.--Celebi96 13:51, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Animated sprite.

It doesn't change for me. It's just the regular Arceus. --ケンジのガール 00:57, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

you maam are using Internet Explorer. that is an animated .png, which your browser does not support. -- MAGNEDETH 00:59, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Don't you think that's a little unfair for people who prefer to user IE? What's wrong with just using a gif file? --ケンジのガール 01:02, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

lesser quality. take it up with TTE. -- MAGNEDETH 01:03, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

You should use Firefox. D: -Sketch 01:05, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

I have used it and I hated it. It made my computer move incredibly slow. --ケンジのガール 01:16, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

How many addons did you give it? That's usually what kills it. I mean, mine's running using 118,784K, next most is Windows Explorer with not even 10% of that much. It's a given with the 13 extensions I have for it... Anyway, Opera's most recent release supports anipngs too, or so I've heard. Given, I plan to make that specific spritecycle a gif again, since the whole point of that is to animate. Other anipngs you don't lose much with them being not animated. TTEchidna 01:35, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Google chrome doesn't accept anipngs, and firefox takes an age to start up for me. I also hate IE. Lord of Origami 11:28, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

It works on opera just fine, Who uses IE nowadays anyway? And Mozilla's slow.... too slow.--FF(edits-talk) 11:52, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Anyway, I recommend you try Opera, if you haven't done so. It's light, fast, simple to use, secure, stable, complete and free so you don't have to worry. And it'll still work with Windows 98. XD Besides, it's MS's fault for not giving better support for web standards 'cause it's "cooler" to use their own. Pokemon lover 18:45, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

???-type arceus existance

If anyone can hack platinum and try changing arceus' type to ???-type and it appears then its existance is official, anybody care and try?--Nobody777 12:22, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

We have the sprite. That's all the proof you need. Θρtιmαtum_Talk 14:01, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

sorry, forgot about that. --Nobody777 14:03, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

origin

there is a legend in arab myths that says that god created a horse from the north wind and it was the frist being on earth, arceus is a horse and the first Pokémon in existance, should we add this to the origin part in the article?--Nobody777 13:29, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

That seems more like an origin for Suicune, because of the north wind bit... Though Suicune isn't a horse. I don't know, it might be a legitimate origin.--Celebi96 14:15, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Arceus reminds me of the andalites from the animorphs books except it only has two eyes and no arms or tail. However in the movie it can speak with telepathy. Did any one else notice the similarities or am I just insane?--Mtn otter 17:41, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

...

I saw this likely vandalism in the tivia section:

At level 80, Arceus is the second highest level non-glitch Pokémon available for capture. The highest is Magikarp which can be caught at level 100 in Pokémon Platinum. It is, however, still the highest level legendary Pokémon available for capture.

I am hoping this is a joke or vandalism.

U.S. Reveal

Since the page is locked, can one of the mods make a note about how it has not been revealed in the U.S., and probably won't be until early next year. --HoennMaster 04:44, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

That's Anime art. Official Art is similar to it's Platinum Sprite.--Mence Master 03:19, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

What does that have to do with my post? --HoennMaster 03:34, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

I'll answer. That's not necessary to say. Besides, it's speculation. -Sketch 20:12, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Type-change grammar

Due to the special coding for Multitype, if the page changes to Electric or Ice, the grammar in the article becomes incorrect, displaying as "a Electric-type" or "a Ice-type". Since I have no idea how the coding works, and the fact that the page is protected anyway, would it be possible for someone to fix that bit of grammar on the Zap and Icicle versions of the page?

A minor error, but an error nonetheless. βetA ZerØ 03:34, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Typer effectiveness box for ??? type

Considering the the ??? type can show up at random on this page should a type effectiveness box show up for it too? Jmvb 16:23, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

I guess I could do it. I don't know the numbers though, ar all types just normal effective?--MisterE13 16:27, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

??? has no strengths and weaknesses; all types are normal. Learned this from Weather Ball and Shadow Sky. βetA ZerØ 16:50, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Just remembered that the page is protected so I can't actually change it. LOL!--MisterE13 18:44, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Don't bother. One, there's no way to access ??? Arceus, so it doesn't matter, and two, the type effectiveness of anything against the ???-type is NORMAL DAMAGE. TTEchidna 05:48, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Arceus to be in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky!

Hi everybody, I just got information from Serebii.net today confirming Arceus will appear in the game as well as several other things as well. So the In Side Games section you can put that Arceus will make it's Mystery Dungeon debut in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky. --Dialgafan1 19:00, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Dialgafan1

English Pokémon Platinum Pokédex Entry.

The anglish Pokémon Platinum Pokédex Entry has been confirmed as "It is said to have emerged from an egg in a place where there was nothing, then shaped the world. " May someone edit the page to include this? ~m190049^~talk 20:43, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Talk page glitch

I noticed when Arceus' page is ???-Type, the message on the top of the page says "DON'T ASK WHY ARCEUS IS A NORMAL-TYPE! It just IS!", incorrectly... ~m190049^~talk 20:48, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

It's because it changes on the second you access the page. Since you accessed the talk page on a different second than the article, it's different. If you go on the page and wait exactly 18 seconds (or a multiple thereof) then check here it should be good.--MisterE13 20:54, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

US Platinum dex entry/page unlock

Can someone please unlock the page so that the English Platinum Dex entry can be added? And why was it even locked in the first place? Frugali 12:13, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Because of the upcoming movie and some impatient users. --Prongs (Talk • Contributions) 12:15, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

I you want, you can just add the entry here so that once admins are around, they could place it in the article. ◄Kevzo8► 12:16, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Someone already posted the Dex entry above me, but I guess I'll just copypaste it: It is said to have emerged from an egg in a place where there was nothing, then shaped the world. And yes, I would want an admin to put it in if it's going to remain locked until the movie's release. Frugali 12:19, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Event Moves

Should the Event Moves (Spacial Rend, Roar of Time, Shadow Force) be added to its moveset? It knows these at Level 100 at the Japanese event this summer. - unsigned comment from JacobCrystal (talk • contribs)

Should we insert the Movie Arceus event?

I mean, Corocoro had already revealed that there is going to be an event in HGSS unlocked by Movie Arceus where the player can choose a Level 1 Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina. I think it should be worth noting that they should mention this in this article. Weedle Mchairybug 13:19, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Name origin

Hey guys, an idea had just sprouted in my head. The name might also come from the latin verb arceo, which roughly translates to "I watch from a distance". /Ziemniax

Actually, that word means "enclose". But it could still be a name origin, since Arceus was enclosed in the Hall of Origin.--Celebi96 14:19, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Both of you are right. if it has a long e then it means "I watch from a distane" but a short e means "enclose"--Mtn otter 17:29, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Arceus catch Trivia

As a point in the trivia I think it should be mentioned that Arceus is the only trio master (as of yet and i suspect always will be) not catchable by typical in-game mechanics instead needing to obtain an item solely distributed by a Nintendo event. All others are obtainable in their original generations via typical methods (i.e. just a simple in-game event or simply trading from a complimentary version) rather than and individual physically having to go to a Nintendo event to receive an item that cannot be obtained in games. I'm sorry if this point seems to sound redundant but I'm not sure if everyone will understand what I mean. -- D558 06:21, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Psh, who says you have to go outside? You can WFC the Azure Flute... eventually... presumably... likely... in the future. But yes, that's a good point. Do it. TTEchidna 06:24, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

I dunno if the page is protected or if my ability to edit pages has been taken away but I can't add this trivia... I guess i'll have to wait until it is unprotected or someone else will have to state this fact -- D558 18:50, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Is it possible to have playable MP3 files to get Pokemon cries?

Name

Apparently (due to the Austrailian trailer floating around the Internets) Arceus's name is pronouced ARK-eus. Aura-Knight 13:11, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

There are so many pronunciations out there that Bulbapedia doesn't keep track of them. In the past there have been discrepancies between the anime and the "official" books, and even between multiple episodes of the anime. —darklordtrom 20:38, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Yeah i thought all trailers pronounced it ARC-eus. I was also surprised that Girantina's name has the first letter still say "g" instead of "j" Desukaan563, with a pokedex of over 380! 03:36, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

1000 arms???

umm... just wondering...why does the Pokédex entry say that it has 1000 arms? I was looking at it and it has four hooves, no arms? Isn't it kind of weird to say it has 1000 arms and then when you see it it has no arms (or four if you count hooves as arms)?--Smartkidhen 00:16, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Well, Arceus could retract them. Ask on the forums, because that is where this belongs. Alpha CuboneKing 00:30, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Magic Plate?

I own a Diamond and Pearl guide that tells you what to do after you beat the game, and it has a section in there about the Underground. In it, it has a list of items you can find, and in that list, they have a Magic Plate. I don't know what's going on, because nobody's mentioned it before. Perhaps it's because I got an early version of the book? Pawsrent 18:25, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Maybe a beta name for the Mind Plate? How many plates does it list? If it only lists 16 plates than it may be a typo/beta name for one of the existing plates. Werdnae (talk) 03:57, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

Article vandalism/Error in code

It seems that all moveset, type and all other special coding from section Type effectiveness -> With Mind Plate up to Name Origin is either wrong or Media Wiki has some problems parsing it. --PewnyPL 19:46, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Do you mean something where it shows a bunch of red links, because if so, I see it to. It is also in the template size exceeded category. I think it has too many templates being used. Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 19:59, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Yup, that's what I meant. And the thing about exceeding number of templates seems possible --PewnyPL 20:05, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Given that all those redlinks are existing templates, it seems that yes, it is due to too many templates. The main question is how to reduce that without losing information. Werdnae (talk) 20:17, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Well, there are two things I can think of.

One of them is creating a new Pokéathlon Template, that would contain all of the Plates (specially for Arceus) with would require only to use the template with stats from all of them (although I'm not sure if there is a limit to how much data you can hand over to a template)

The second one is to change all link-Templates (those that just generate links to other articles) to normal links to articles

13,933?

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but the formula (as stated here) makes a captured Arceus give (even if the owner's Pokémon is foreign and traded) only 7,071(.428571) at level 100.
a= 2.2
b= 225
L=100.
2.2 × 225 = 495
495 × 100 = 49,500
49,500 ／ 7 = 7,071.428571.
Either this page is wrong, the formula is, or I am. Thanks Samjohn95 16:46, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

You have b as 225, but it's 255. That's your error. --PhantomJunkie 16:52, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

I just did the math with 255 as b, and by my calculations, even with a foreign language Arceus and a Lucky Egg, the total experience earned would be 12,021. That's odd. :/--PhantomJunkie 16:57, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

I got that the first time too. Sorry, I should of used the history on my calculator. Well, which is wrong then? How do we find out? Samjohn95 12:52, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Just did the math. I am getting 13,933. I did this: (1.7 * 1.5 * 1.5 * 255 * 100)/7

(Wining pokemon foreign traded * Opposing pokemon owned by trainer * Wining pokemon holding lucky egg * base exp * level 100)/7 Mark342 21:35, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

They have changed the formula. It didn't work before. This File:Exp.png is the previous one. The new one works. Thanks anyway, Samjohn95 21:13, 27 July 2010 (UTC).

Explorers of Sky

I have tried, but I can't get rid of the part on the Sidegame template that includes Explorers of Sky. It wasn't in the Game, so does anyone know how to get rid of this? It's a little misleading. Thanks, Samjohn95 23:03, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Name origin

About the name origin. For me, the most simple theory is not so clearly mentioned in the current name origin section. My theory is: Arceus is just a transcription of "archeos" from latin (meaning archaich). This was confirmed with the newest trailers that pronounce "Arceus" exactly like "archeos" is pronounced. It is the most direct and simple someone can think of, it's more or less the same process used for other Pokémon name such as Luvdisc, since "luv" has the same pronountiation as "love".

If Japan and Gods is created, it seems to be worth describing to trivia. Sawamular101 12:37, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

My remark on the page of the edit became interrupted. Arceus lives in the interior of Spear Pillar. There are a spear and a point of contact of the creation of the Shintoism myth. Sawamular101 07:27, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

But would that not mean that Arceus would have to be two, and not one? I think Dialga and Palkia, both met at Spear Pillar itself, better represent the two, with Giratina representing what happened to Izanami after Kagu-tsuchi burned her. Arceus created the universe... Dialga and Palkia were the ones who created Spear Pillar, and from it, Sinnoh. Arceus is above them. TTEchidna 07:49, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for correcting my English.

It is said that it is izanami and izanagi that it gave birth to the gods for the first time by the myth of Shintoism. Kunitokotachi and Amenominakanushi doesn't make the gods though Kunitokotachi and Amenominakanushi is the first god. There are izanami(izanagi) and a lacking part because neither Dialga nor Palkia make "Legend pokeomn". It is guessed that the ability of izanagi and izanami that creates the gods is equipped in Arceus.

I am satisfied with the sentence that Mr. TTEchidna corrected. It is not necessary to discuss it any further.

Colour Changing Articles

I know but it seems kind of pointless, when I fist read the article I thought you'd made a mistake calling it a Dragon-type and when I scrolled down I thought you'd lost your marbles when you were indicating pokeathlon stats for its Bug forme specifically. The Pokedex on the games treats it as a Normal-type. We don't have different coloured articles for Kecleon or Castform and they don't need to be holding special items to change forme. I think leaving it as Normal-type is most convenient and less confusing, also we have articles displaying what TMs and HMs it can learn as different types so why bother with all this.

Its probably because Arceus has different Performance stats for its forms, its attack has different type for plate held, and because its sprite changes too. Too just list it all would make the page too long if it weren't hidden. Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 14:32, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

I'm not suggesting have everything listed for all types. However it would be easier to select which type you want instead of it being random each time. Lucky V4.0 15:22, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

I know. But I'm pretty sure with wikicode you can't do that, unless each type had their own page. At least with the random function you have a 1/17 chance of getting the one you want. If not, then just use the show/hide function. The only difference would be the template colors. Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 15:32, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
