[SET COMMENTS]
Pixilate Arceus-Fairy is a solid wallbreaker that also reliably removes entry hazards with Boomburst and unblockable Rapid Spin, respectively. Extreme Speed provides a strong priority option against opposing setup sweepers like Miraidon and Palkia-O; alternatively, Nuzzle lets Arceus-Fairy cripple Zacian-C, Imposter users, and defensive checks, and a pivoting move like Volt Switch or Flip Turn is also an option to retain momentum. Heavy-Duty Boots increases Arceus-Fairy's longevity and further improves its entry hazard removal potential, while Covert Cloak protects Arceus-Fairy from common moves with secondary effects, such as Nuzzle and Mortal Spin. Pixie Plate is another alternative to provide more immediate power, notably allowing Tera Fairy Arceus-Fairy to potentially OHKO Miraidon, and also is immune to Knock Off. Wallbreakers such as Zacian-C and Miraidon appreciate Arceus-Fairy removing entry hazards, threatening opposing sweepers, and pressuring common walls like Dondozo and Ting-Lu. If Zacian-C has recovery, it can also Imposter-proof Arceus-Fairy. Tera Fairy further boosts Arceus-Fairy's damage output, whereas Tera Steel provides a wide array of useful resistances, allowing Arceus-Fairy to pick off threats like Poison Heal Arceus and weakened Zacian-C.
