Introduced in Generation IV, Arceus is often referred to as the "Alpha Pokémon" and is central to the lore of the Sinnoh region. Its ability to change its type based on the Plate it holds makes it a uniquely versatile creature. Arceus is not known to evolve from or into any other Pokémon, standing alone as a singular entity of immense power. In the games, Arceus is typically encountered through special events, reflecting its status as a mythical and elusive being. Its role in the anime often depicts it as a benevolent yet powerful force, capable of great destruction or creation. Culturally, Arceus represents the pinnacle of existence within the Pokémon universe, embodying themes of creation, balance, and divine power. It is often depicted with a golden, wheel-like ring around its midsection, symbolizing its cosmic influence and connection to the fabric of reality. Its diet and specific behaviors are largely unknown, as it is a cosmic entity rather than a typical biological organism, but it is implied to oversee the natural order of the world.
