Basically, on Arceus' profile there's this interesting note:
Note 2: A frequently brought up topic is the fact that Arceus was incapacitated by a simple meteor in the movie Arceus and the Jewel of Life. According to director Yuyama, Arceus was too powerful for the scenario to work in its original setting, which is that of an Omnipotent and Omniscient being, so he decided to create drama by making it incomplete with missing plates, and to make it more convincing by including a time-slip sequence to solve the problem, making this a classic case of Plot-Induced Stupidity. More explained in the link provided.
The problems are two:
The first is just something about the remastered of the Mewtwo movie, which doesn't mention anything about Arceus.
Others are either powerscaling sites, a fan article on Arceus' made on Pixiv, or random documents that are completely unrelated to Pokémon.
I dunno if this should've go here or in RVR (given that Sniper and his sock(s) were banned), but this deserves attention anyway.
The note should either be completed removed or reworked with just actually existent information, idrc.

The problems are two:
- The first link doesn't say literally anything about nerfing Arceus for drama purposes, it only gives generic info on the plot and characters.
- The second link is a VBW comment which however uses an interview that... simply doesn't exist.
