It was definitely one of my biggest worries before release how they would handle Arceus. Kind of hope we get more very powerful Legendary and Mythical Pokémon and maybe just do the same thing? Haha.

im still kind of unsure if that’s what the “part of arceus” is referring to. you’re given the legend plate at the same time as receiving arceus, there’s some ambiguity there. it’s fair to say the one you receive and the one you speak with throughout the game are different, but there’s still the possibility it’s the same one, just appearing in different ways

@@GatorEX If instead of catching we could "call them" or "summon them", it would keep the value of the Pokémon!

@@leftygurl Basically, it means that we are getting a avatar copy of the Pokégod. Since he’s a god, he can be multiple places at once.

@@leftygurl Yes, when I first read it, I was under the same impression. The part of itself in question could in fact be refering to the Legend Plate, but Arceus definitely has multi-location abilities. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that there are always multiple Arceus running around at the same time. Arceus just might be able to materialize one or more avatars at will and then dematerialize them when it doesn't feel inclined to interact with the world.

You really have to Command PLA for giving us answers for some of the longest Pokémon questions How can 10 year old children catch gods? How do Pokéballs work? All we need now is a proper timeline to the games themselves

@@groovy_scorpion6490 The game explaned in the beginning how the poke balls work. If you missed that information you always can go back and read it again. And, excuse me but , who is 10 years old to you??? In the game, our avatars are 11 to 16 years old.... And about how humans can catch pokemon is that, those pokemon decide to go with them. Legends of course want to see if the human worthy first.

@@esztervarga5431 you oversimplified a lot and didn't mention any of the contradictions present in your theories, but I agree that it's good Legends started to explain some of this. The whole legendary thing, though, was established in earlier games like Rayquaza in ORAS, though I liked how it explained how legendaries who are caught are only willingly travelling with the trainer temporarily until they die.

@@esztervarga5431 I wasn’t asking any questions I was just giving examples of questions we had for long periods of time that were answered in PLA

@@esztervarga5431 And for calling the protagonist 10 l was just simplifying what I’m actually trying to say since I’m not just talking about PLA I’m talking about the Pokémon games as a whole

That sounds like a good estimation. They all make sense thematically.

Arceus is so strong it uses 5 moves in a battle. That's nice

Well that means it can use 5 moves in battle, fitting for a god

@@kulanshkhurana7432 mew can do that in master with professor oak Pre-sync move it knows swift and psychic but after using the sync move it has blizzard fire blast thunder and psychic

I’d think the unknown are the arms + Every game is an alt dimension so objectively speaking there are multiple arceus giving off a piece of themselves to us countless times

What if the arms were parts of Arceus? With each of its parts, like the one obtained by the player, counting as one arm?

Arceus is a hand. Take off his head and you'll see it.

​@@MegaMachiOnline alternate universe*

well he also praises the kid for not being killed by the lazers and meteors he was launching

and even being chill enough to present the kid with a godly iphone at the beginning without them having even done anything yet, then by the end being like "I'm glad I met you kid :)" lowkey love arceus in this game

Arceus: You are banished, punished, you sinner Giratina: come at me bitch, i wanna take you on

... only be completely ignored by Arceus, who was basically sandbagging against the same trainer that kicked Giratina's teeth in six ways to Sunday.

Just like Lucifer Morningstar

If I had to guess, literally nobody except the protagonist really knows that there is an original Arceus.

@@lpfan4491 i think volo and creation trio knows as well

Hiya Toby!!!

Bata

The text from the Hiker's dialogue in Canalave Library seems to suggest that the Original One is the title used for Arceus' physical self, its avatar, while the Original Spirit is the title used for its non-physical self, the spirit of all things, which is revealed to be its light form from Legends Arceus. ----------------------------------‐------‐--------‐---------------- I more so think that the ring on Arceus represents the part of itself that is spirit. It is a dharmachakra, which animates the world and all souls, but drives souls towards pure spirit, which is the fundamental unity of all things. The Creation Trio, in Origin Forme, have similar rings around themselves called bhavachakras which keep souls tethered to the physical world and away from unity in separate, individualized forms. For this reason, I don't think the ring will break to reveal something more powerful since the light version of Arceus would be it if that were the case, and in that form, it still has the ring on. You probably got the idea from Type:Null breaking its helmet, which is modelled after Arceus' ring, to become Silvally. However, Arceus does not need to break its ring in order to use its Multitype ability while Type:Null has to in order to use its RKS System. It's probably something peculiar about Type:Null and does not hint at Arceus having to do the same. ------------------------------------------------------------------- I believe that if the Creation Trio, the Lake Guardians and the plates were to return to Arceus, the universe and all the souls in them would cease to exist and only the Original Spirit would remain. To be more exact, we would all become one with the Original Spirit and become it. We would all share the same perspective through Arceus' mind. Essentially, we would have reached the Omega Point.

It's Lilligant, NOT Liligent! Avalugg is supposed to end with 2 G's! We don't use commas in contractions the second time, we use apostrophes!

@@Amelia4111 there, it’s fixed. Also, if you’re gonna do a spellcheck comment, could you at least point out all of them so it’s at least a funny wall of text rather than just sounding pretentious?

There is a trinity: Light Arceus, Dream Arceus & Physical Arceus.

So each person that has an Arceus in their party has 0.00001% of the entire being. And even that 0.00001% makes it the most powerful Pokemon to ever exist.

The original spirit is still an avatar of Arceus' true form. Any percentage are irrelevant.

I think the real Arceus is everyone. Like...we are groot.

The real Arceus is the beta design from the original DP

@@callmesilver2683 No, that's literally just a beta design.

@@Mwright4444 No, that's literally just a joke.

@@tox9809 No, that’s literally just a reply.

That's exactly it. Another being like that is the Living Tribunal from Marvel in which we only see a sliver of its true form. It never leaves its dimension but can create avatars and appear in multiple, alternate universes at once. Light Arceus is like the One Above All, and physical and dream Arceus are more like the Living Tribunal, but in this case, they all host the same mind, and that single mind speaks through its representations, which are localized in different realms.

@@TheNamelessOne888 Arceus true form is beyond our comprehension. He is most likely the supreme being of Pokémon. Omnipotence, omnipresence, omniscience, omni-benevolence.

Hey! we had catholics who had him on speed dial as well lol ask Jean D'Arc :v

@@roxasvonbielefield2245 She must've been a Steel/Fairy type. A warrior chosen by God to lead a massive army, who was also 4x weak to Fire type attacks....

i dunno about darkseid cuz i don't read comics but is he an Avatar of himself cuz technically arcues(the fence goat) is just a piece of arceus(the glowing light at the start probably). arceus is more like a small part of a whole thing that is still technically that thing

How could I forget my favorite little dude? Well, I guess with Calyrex it speaks through someone else’s body? But you’re right, Calyrex still counts.

@@GatorEX also Zoroark was shown to be able to speak when mimicking human appearense

Actually Tapu Koko in sun and moon was the first instance of a legendary talking to the player in game

That said, even that small percentage of the entire being makes it the most powerful Pokemon you could ever hope to attain.

Arceus is genderless, NOT a he!

@@Amelia4111 same with real life god, but we still call him ‘he’ because it is the default pronoun for God and also Arceus

holy shit its the man

Hi god how's it's going

I'm gonna catch u

OH MY LORD IT'S THE POKE-LORD

The True Form of The God is going to be broken stat-wise for sure.

Arceus is genderless, NOT a he!

Only a few legendary Pokemon would permanently join you like Zacian and Zamazenta, Reshiram Zekrom and Kyrem.

no, it's more likely that each one has its own Arceus...

​@@arc8687or Arceus avatar

The true Arceus maybe. It’s likely each dimension has its own Arceus figment to govern that realm.

That is a good fucking question. 🤔

I mean Gamefreak exists in the games so I have to say yes to that

I mean yes, he talk to the player for what its seems in legends arceus at the beggining, soo he knowns he is in a game, soo he let us play to save the day

Based on how nearly everybody in the games mentions the controls, but usually people of importance, I have a feeling most Pokémon characters know about the nature of their world to some extent, but, as their world is one of peace, where humans have learned their lesson to a greater extent, they don’t really care that much. The world is real to them, and that’s all that matters.

I still need to finish them, but honestly I do really love what I’ve played of the first one. Just a matter of actually doing it and getting my gameplay capture set up finished here in my new place.

We DO NOT use the word its as a pronoun if there's an apostrophe in it!

It's Arceus, NOT Arkhaos!

Not really. Removing one aspect from something that has infinite aspects to it both results in you having a part of it while it remains infinite. Now, the question is if "infinity" actually exists or if it is humanity's scientific fanfiction, but the concept still applies.

@@lpfan4491 No, really. You can't remove infinity from infinity. Thus, you cannot take a piece of infinity, and say "it's also infinite". Removing an aspect implies it had something finite to take from. Otherwise, how can you take ifninity from infinity? You can't. It would merely still be attached, and not really be something you can cut off from the source. Even in a Pokeball.

@@KaiserTrigger You are genuinely telling me that "Infinite - 1" is invalid. It is not, it still results in infinite.

@@lpfan4491 You cannot subtract from something that is infinite. It will still be stuck to that infinite source.

The existence of bunrei/divided spirits in Shinto (alongside Vedic traditions that slid over to Japan) makes that something you can't exactly say with confidence. Ritualistically splitting a god can just as much create a new one as it does just let the first shrine exist in two places, so it is entirely possible for "normal" Arceus to range from being "regular" Pokemon in the shape of itself to basically just Arceus multitasking and just... doing less on a second monitor. Hell, we probably won't ever know what all "actual" Arceus can do since Volo and Giratina were at its doorstep metaphorically flinging bags of shit over its lawn and it just threw some teenager at them... just like how it threw a DIFFERENT guy at Giratina when it was doing its angsty rebel nonsense in the past.

Arceus is genderless, NOT a he!

That would be a god then lol

Nice

It's very possible. Watch the video and you'll understand.

We don't end our comments with a comma!

In what way? I think it's far from garbage.
