[SET COMMENTS]
Simple + No Retreat turns Arceus-Ghost into a threatening setup sweeper that is hard to revenge kill. Spooky Plate + Judgment allows Arceus-Ghost to Imposter-proof itself while blocking Knock Off's item removal. A Fighting-type move provides perfect neutral coverage that hits Judgment switch-ins such as Slaking, Ting-Lu, and Ice Scales Dialga-O. Triple Arrows can potentially allow Arceus-Ghost to ignore Strength Sap Attack drops with critical hits, whereas Collision Course deals more consistent damage. Arceus-Ghost struggles to deal with bulky Prankster Pokemon like Ting-Lu and Arceus-Water, so strong wallbreakers like Choice Specs Miraidon and Palkia-O can help break past these. Opposing status users can also be crippling, so Heal Bell users like Dondozo and Ting-Lu are appreciated. Arceus-Ghost generally Imposter-proofs itself but opposing Spooky Plate + Imposter users can be troublesome, so an emergency Imposter-proof like the aforementioned Prankster users can be useful.
