Ability: Normalize
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe

The Pokemon god himself shall nullify all your attacks. Normalize Arceus-Ghost is an effective lure against RegenVest users such as Ting-Lu, trapping them with Thunder Cage, then using Entrainment so they cannot switch out with U-turn, thus slowly chipping them down to their demise. Strength Sap can be used to heal back damage from entry hazards, while Take Heart can be used to boost and break Magic Bounce users while the opponent is hopelessly trapped and clear volatile status. Normalize Arceus-Ghost is best used on balance teams alongside another strong special breaker such as Mega Alakazam to capitalize on its RegenVest luring capabilities. Other teammates may include your own RegenVest users or Sticky Web setters like Primal Groudon to check faster threats that can KO Arceus-Ghost before it uses Entrainment, such as Flutter Mane, and counters to Ability Shield such as Knock Off Zamazenta.

Strength Sap can be used to heal back damage from entry hazards, while Take Heart can be used to boost up [and break past Magic Bounce users] while the opponent is hopelessly trapped and clear volatile status.

Other teammates may include your own RegenVest users to check threats that are faster, especially ones that commonly run Ghost-type coverage such as Flutter Mane, and [Sticky Web setters like Groudon-Primal to prevent faster Pokemon from knocking it out before Entrainment can be used].

See Normalize Arceus-Ghost in action in Hackmons PL Semifinals, where it successfully trapped RegenVest Celesteela, ultimately allowing Solgaleo and Mega Alakazam to take over the game: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen9balancedhackmons-972707?p2

848 (before the replay paragraph, 1109 after)
 
okay so we dont include the replay part in the characters and we dont include spaces either, so just counting the first paragraph after my changes its at 762. in case you need to add more and didnt do it because you thought its over the limit you can do it (its fine if you dont but i figured maybe you stopped yourself becasue of character count). anyway if you do add then ping me to have a look again i'll take this off the queue for now.
1/1 GP Team done

so here the purpose is to just make people watch the replay so we dont need to spoil whats actually happening, the idea is a short hook phrase even just saying "see X in action during this HPL semis game" is fine btw but i'll leave some of your description in
