Arceus' Plates

[XBlackExcellenceX]

I've been reading a lot of Arceus' VS threads and apparently the plates give him a certain resistance/invulnerability. But each plate resistance isn't really explained. I know that the psychic plate gives Arceus a resistance/immunity to Telekinesis/Mind Control. But what about the other plates?


Each form of Arceus

Fist Plate: Chi,Ki and Martial Arts based attacks.

Spooky Plate: Soul Based attacks

Draco Plate: We dunno....I guess Time and Space????....Attacks from Dragons?

Iron Plate: Metal Based attacks and Weapons

Fairy Plate: Light Based and maybe Magical Based attacks

Bug Plate: Bug based skills or attacks from Bugs.

Others are self explanatory.

I guess that makes sense. But why do people consider those hax resistances useful at tier 2.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Believe it or not they can be pretty useful.

 

[XBlackExcellenceX]

Yeah the Spooky, Fairy, and Psychic plates seems useful since Soul manipulation, magic, and mind control are powerful abilities. But I can't see how the rest are useful when battling reality warpers.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Well it is when Arceus himself is a high level reality warper.

Because Draco Plate

...That as well.

Yeah the Draco Plate was powering the Jewel of Life. So I'm not sure where the resistance to Space-Time manipulation came from. If anything, Arceus should naturally have a resistance to Space-Time manipulation given it created the concept of both.

Also are you guys sure the plates give a resistance to its perspective types hax? I recall Arceus negating an Aura Sphere with the Spooky Plate.

Also pardon the late reply, had things to do.
