Strategy & play

How Arceus & Dialga & Palkia-GX plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Not a main attacker — its job is search / tutoring. Run it as a consistency hub and protect it, because opponents will target the engine.
  • Its attack takes an extra Prize on KO — a tempo and comeback swing. Opponents will play around giving it a target.
  • Needs Water / Metal Energy to attack — note its own type is Dragon, so build for the attack cost, not the type.
  • Dragon type, weak to Fairy ×2 — a Fairy attacker doing ≥140 effectively one-shots it.
  • A two-prize Pokémon — each KO gives the opponent 2 Prizes, so a single bad trade can lose the race. Back it with single-prize attackers.
  • Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.

How to beat Arceus & Dialga & Palkia-GX

  • Exploit its Fairy weakness — ≥140 damage one-shots it.
  • KO it to choke their draw / search engine.
  • Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
