The mighty Alpha Pokémon Arceus stands to make an otherworldly impression on TCG strategy as we know it. With multiple Arceus cards, as well as multiple Pokémon LV.X that can Level-Up those Arceus, the possibilities are breathtaking. One of the most potent Pokémon LV.X is Arceus LV.X (94/99) which, surprisingly enough, doesn’t even have a direct attack! Instead, it has two Poké-Bodies that it uses to define its abilities. The first is the Multitype Poké-Body, which all of the Arceus LV.X cards have: it turns Arceus LV.X into the same type as the Arceus it’s Leveling Up from. The other Poké-Body is where things get interesting. The Omniscient Poké-Body lets Arceus LV.X use the attacks of any of the Arceus that are in play on your side. Use the Ultimate Zone (91/99) Stadium card to shift Energy from your Benched Pokémon to your Active Arceus to ensure you always have the necessary Energy to attack, too. Given the number of Arceus cards in the Platinum—Arceus expansion, this Arceus LV.X may be the most versatile Pokémon LV.X you’ll ever play!
