Arceus-Dragon carves a small niche as a support Pokemon thanks to its incredible bulk, diverse amount of utility options, and solid typing allowing it to take on Pokemon like Palafin, Ogerpon-H, Arceus-Electric, and Chi-Yu. Draco Meteor is generally preferred as the STAB move, although Judgment is an option to trade off power for consistency and no Special Attack drop. Will-O-Wisp gives Arceus-Dragon the ability to more comfortably take on physical attackers like Kingambit, Great Tusk, and Zacian, but if these threats are not an issue, Thunder Wave can cripple the likes of Mewtwo, Kyurem-W, and Lunala with paralysis. The third moveslot is incredibly flexible; most commonly, Stealth Rock is run to allow Arceus-Dragon to provide support for its team. Dragon Tail and Roar are also options, as both provide phazing capabilities, with Dragon Tail not being affected by Taunt and Roar bypassing Substitutes and hitting Fairy-types like Zacian and Magearna. Flash Cannon is an option to provide coverage for Fairy-types, allowing Arceus-Dragon to not be completely walled by them, but it is extremely difficult to fit. Tera Steel gives Arceus-Dragon a valuable defensive typing, allowing it to take on Pokemon like Iron Bundle, Gholdengo, and Deoxys better while also providing a Toxic immunity. Tera Fairy and Tera Water are alternative Tera types that let Arceus-Dragon take on Pokemon like Great Tusk, Roaring Moon, (comma) and Kyurem-W better. The given EV spread allows Arceus-Dragon to be as bulky as possible while still outpacing Ogerpon-H. Arceus-Dragon generally finds use on defensive teams alongside other walls like Magearna and Toxapex. Fairy-types like Magearna, Zacian, and Clefable completely counter Arceus-Dragon, so checks to them like Galarian Slowking and Toxapex are valuable to have. Likewise, Ice-types like Chien-Pao and Kyurem-W beat Arceus-Dragon, so Pokemon like Magearna are helpful teammates.

Arceus-Dragon carves a small niche thanks to its incredible bulk, diverse amount of utility options, and solid typing allowing it to take on Pokemon like Palafin, Ogerpon-H, Arceus-Electric, and Chi-Yu. Draco Meteor is generally prefered as the STAB move of choice, although Judgement Judgment is an option to trade off power for consistency and no Special Attack Drop. Will-O-Wisp gives Arceus-Dragon the ability to more comfortably take on physical attackers like Kingambit, Great Tusk, or Zacian, but if these threats are not an issue, Thunder Wave can cripple the likes of Mewtwo, Gholdengo (!dt good as gold, pick something like magearna, chien pao, iron bundle, dd arceus formes), and Zamazenta-C with paralysis. The third moveslot is incredibly flexible; most commonly, Stealth Rock is run to allow Arceus-Dragon to provide support for its team. Dragon Tail and Roar are options, as both provide phazing capabilities, with Dragon Tail not being affected by Taunt and Roar bypassing Substitutes and hitting Fairy-types like Zacian and Magearna (pretty please mention flash cannon for fairies?). Tera Steel gives Arceus-Dragon a valuable defensive typing, allowing it to take on Pokemon like Arceus-Electric (how?) , Gholdengo, and Deoxys (how x2) better, while also providing a Toxic immunity. Tera Fairy and Tera Water are alternative Tera Types, letting Arceus-Dragon take on Pokemon like Great Tusk and Roaring Moon and Palafin and Kyurem-W better, respectively. Arceus-Dragon generally finds use on defensive teams. Fairy-types like Magearna, Zacian, and Clefable completely counter Arceus- (i think you forgor to finish this sentence. say something about fairy and ice types that outspeed it cause major issue, like zacian, bundle, pao and scarf kyu-w)

Arceus-Dragon carves a small niche (as what?) thanks to its incredible bulk, diverse amount of utility options, and solid typing allowing it to take on Pokemon like Palafin, Ogerpon-H, Arceus-Electric, and Chi-Yu. Draco Meteor is generally prefered preferred as the STAB move of choice(any notable rolls it hits?), although Judgment is an option to trade off power for consistency and no Special Attack Drop. Will-O-Wisp gives Arceus-Dragon the ability to more comfortably take on physical attackers like Kingambit, Great Tusk, or Zacian, but if these threats are not an issue, Thunder Wave can cripple the likes of Mewtwo, Iron Bundle, and Zamazenta-C with paralysis(zama-c feels like a worse example than like, lunala or kyurem or another special attacker, as you'd rather wisp zama usually). The third moveslot is incredibly flexible; most commonly, Stealth Rock is run to allow Arceus-Dragon to provide support for its team. Dragon Tail and Roar are options, as both provide phazing capabilities, with Dragon Tail not being affected by Taunt and Roar bypassing Substitutes and hitting Fairy-types like Zacian and Magearna.

Tera Fairy and Tera Water are alternative Tera Types, letting Arceus-Dragon take on Pokemon like Great Tusk and Roaring Moon and Palafin (none of these are better v pfin than drag is)and Kyurem-W better, respectively.(mention that 176+ speed beats Oger-H, who can otherwise just play rough and kill you) Arceus-Dragon generally finds use on defensive teams(alongside who?). Fairy-types like Magearna, Zacian, and Clefable completely counter Arceus-Dragon, so checks to them like Galarian Slowking and Toxapex are valuable to have. Likewise, Ice-types like Iron Bundle, Chien-Pao, and Kyurem-W beat Arceus-Dragon, so Pokemon like Magearna and the beforementioned Toxapex (doesnt even beat one of these mons) are helpful to have as teammates.
