Arceus-Fairy is a staple Arceus forme in Anything Goes. It checks two of the most dangerous Dynamax abusers in Yveltal and Zygarde-C and provides solid utility. Judgment is the main attacking option, allowing it to hit Yveltal and Zygarde-C for super effective damage and has no immunities. Recover is necessary to maintain health and must be used frequently since the said Dynamax abusers can break through Arceus-Fairy if it's weakened enough. Will-O-Wisp is used to cripple Necrozma-DM, Swords Dance Arceus formes and occasionally Zacian-C. Defog is used to remove hazards from the field. Alternatively, Refresh can be used to get rid of status inflicted by Primal Groudon, Ho-Oh, Chansey and Necrozma-DM. Lastly, Calm Mind is another viable move which allows Arceus-Fairy to counter Calm Mind Refresh Arceus-Dark and potentially sweep late game. 124 Speed EVs is used to outspeed maximum speed Primal Groudon, Primal Kyogre, Zekrom, and Modest Yveltal. HP EVs are maximized and rest are put in SpD to comfortably wall Dynamax Yveltal.

Arceus-Fairy is used on balance and bulky offense teams. It is extremely vulnerable to metagame staples like Zacian-C, Primal Groudon and Necrozma-DM, so it appreciates physically defensive teammates like Necrozma-DM, Zygarde-C, Arceus-Water, and Giratina. Special attackers like Eternatus, Primal Kyogre, Kyogre and Xerneas can also threaten Arceus-Fairy so reliable checks like Tyranitar and Chansey are recommended. Lugia is another very good teammate since it walls most Mega Rayquaza sets, and in return Arceus-Fairy checks Yveltal. Arceus-Fairy dislikes hazards on the field, since Yveltal and Zygarde-C can break throught it if its weakened enough. Thus, solid defoggers like Giratina, Ho-Oh, or Gliscor must be used with it. Arceus-Fairy gets plenty of opportunities to burn Necrozma-DM which allows offensive teammates like Xerneas, Zacian-C, and Zygarde-C to comfortably set up and break through teams. Arceus-Fairy also gives a free switch in to walls like Ho-Oh, Chansey and Ferrothorn, so strong breakers like Mega Rayquaza and Yveltal which can exploit these threats can prove to be very effective.

Arceus-Fairy is a staple Arceus forme in Anything Goes. It checks two of the most dangerous Dynamax abusers in Yveltal and Zygarde-C, in addition to Marshadow, and provides solid utility. Judgment is the main attacking option, allowing it to hit Yveltal, Marshadow, and Zygarde-C for super effective damage and has no immunities. Recover is necessary to maintain health and must be used frequently since the said Dynamax abusers can break through Arceus-Fairy if it's weakened enough. -fluff- Will-O-Wisp is used to cripple Necrozma-DM, Swords Dance Arceus formes and occasionally Zacian-C on the switch. Defog is used to remove entry hazards from the field. Arceus-Fairy is a particularly good Defogger due to its ability to force out Necrozma-DM with Will-O-Wisp. Alternatively, Refresh can be used to get rid of status inflicted by Primal Groudon, -it barely runs status anymore- Ho-Oh, Chansey and Necrozma-DM. Lastly, Calm Mind is another viable move which allows Arceus-Fairy to counter Calm Mind Refresh Arceus-Dark and potentially sweep late game. 124 Speed EVs is used to outspeed maximum speed Primal Groudon, Primal Kyogre, Zekrom, and Modest Yveltal. The rest of the EVs are dumped into HP and Special Defense HP EVs are maximized and rest are put in SpD to comfortably wall Dynamax Yveltal along with a Calm nature.

Arceus-Fairy is used on balance and bulky offense teams. It is extremely vulnerable to metagame staples like Zacian-C, Primal Groudon and Dragon Dance Necrozma-DM, so it appreciates physically defensive teammates like Necrozma-DM, Zygarde-C, Arceus-Water, and Giratina. Special attackers like Eternatus, Mega Mewtwo Y, Primal Kyogre, Kyogre and Xerneas can also threaten Arceus-Fairy so reliable checks like Tyranitar and Chansey are recommended. Lugia is another very good teammate since it walls most Mega Rayquaza sets and offers insurance versus Dragon Dance Zygarde-C, and in return Arceus-Fairy checks Yveltal. Arceus-Fairy dislikes hazards on the field, since Yveltal and Zygarde-C can break through it if its weakened enough. Thus, solid defoggers like Giratina, Ho-Oh, or Gliscor must be used with it. -It's a Defogger itself, no need to recommend additional Defoggers (with balance and bulky offense in mind)- Arceus-Fairy gets plenty of opportunities to burn Necrozma-DM which allows offensive teammates like Xerneas, Zacian-C, and Zygarde-C to comfortably set up and break through teams. Arceus-Fairy also gives a free switch in to walls like Ho-Oh, Chansey and Ferrothorn, so strong breakers like Mega Rayquaza and Yveltal which can exploit these threats with a double switch can prove to be very effective.
-don't forget to mention counterplay to Perish Trappers-
