[SET COMMENTS]
Arceus-Fire's Orichalcum Pulse-boosted V-create is the strongest relevant attack in the tier, letting it force out most Pokemon by threatening an OHKO. Arceus-Fire's niche over other V-create users, such as Zacian-C, is its powerful Solar Beam, which removes common physical walls such as Dondozo and Groudon. Growth enables Arceus-Fire to set up on passive walls, whereas Glacial Lance targets Dragon-types such as Eternatus and Giratina. Life Orb increases Arceus-Fire's power to absurd levels, OHKOing Arceus formes that don't resist its moves and 2HKOing most resistant targets with V-create. Heavy-Duty Boots, on the other hand, allows Arceus-Fire to take better advantage of its resistance to common Fairy- and Fire-type attacks and check many Zacian-C sets lacking Ground-type moves. Arceus-Fire has difficulty breaking past Fire-immune foes, most commonly Well-Baked Body Steel-types, so it pairs well with teammates that can handle these targets like Groudon and Headlong Rush Zacian-C. Imposter-proofing is done with Well-Baked Body Steel-types or Primordial Sea users. Tera Fire boosts the power of V-create even further, while Tera Grass grants a Ground resistance and a much stronger Solar Beam.
