I dont play mons that often but i was bored so I thought hmmm what if I made a team with a whack arceus form. So I began scrolling darkceus is dogshit and unfun BUT THEN I found fireceus and I thought hmm this couldnt be that bad right? Cant be burned, koraidon sets sun for it resists premier pokemon like zacian-crowned, arceus-fairy. And besides I find using standard teams extremely boring. Below is the teambuilding process!
Arceus-Fire @ Flame Plate
Ability: Multitype
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 132 HP / 252 Atk / 124 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Flare Blitz
- Dragon Dance
- Supercell Slam
- Earthquake
Initially i thought of having sd+webs with this but sd wouldnt help anyway cause koraidon and miraidon nuke it after 1 kill. But this set is in fact much much better. The speed evs hit a speed of 307 letting arc outspeed scarfed kyogre at +1 and scarfed koraidon at +2. Supercell slam is a goated move-
+1 252+ Atk Arceus-Fire Supercell Slam vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Kyogre: 370-436 (108.5 - 127.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO
+2 252+ Atk Arceus-Fire Supercell Slam vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Ho-Oh in Electric Terrain: 452-534 (108.9 - 128.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO
+2 252+ Atk Flame Plate Arceus-Fire Flare Blitz vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Koraidon in Sun: 324-382 (95 - 112%) -- 68.8% chance to OHKO
+1 252+ Atk Arceus-Fire Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Miraidon: 338-398 (99.1 - 116.7%) -- 93.8% chance to OHKO
+2 252+ Atk Flame Plate Arceus-Fire Flare Blitz vs. 240 HP / 252+ Def Arceus-Fairy in Sun: 463-546 (104.9 - 123.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO
while earthquake also helps vs eternatus, tera grass is the best tera for this mon as it allows it to setup on arceus-ground, prevent stunspore from ribombee and setup on it instead and a resistance to miraidon and kyogre.
Koraidon @ Choice Band
Ability: Orichalcum Pulse
Tera Type: Fighting
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- U-turn
- Close Combat
- Outrage
- Flare Blitz
Now that i knew i needed sun and electric terrain for some calcs sticky webs was not a choice anymore as i had to make a team that relies heavily on pivoting around to get in as many turns of damage as possible. Choice Band korai was a good choice here as it pairs well with fireceus as a wallbreaker too.
Miraidon @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Hadron Engine
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- U-turn
- Overheat
- Electro Drift
- Draco Meteor
I prefer banded koraidon with fireceus than lorb mirai/hdb mirai so i went with scarf here as it acts as a revenge killer to zacian/ekiller arceus.
Hatterene (F) @ Eject Button
Ability: Magic Bounce
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 HP / 200 Def / 56 Spe
Bold Nature
- Healing Wish
- Dazzling Gleam
- Mystical Fire
- Nuzzle
I am not a huge fan of scarfed miraidon personally as hdb miraidon would outclass it in every way but if there are no hazards scarf miraidon can be good so hatterene served as a fairy type to prevent koraidon from boosting and avoiding hazards while also having healing wish vs some harsh situations. also nuzzle is pretty good with cb korai.
Iron Treads @ Focus Sash
Ability: Quark Drive
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Rapid Spin
- Bulldoze
- Endeavor
Now i needed a ground type for easier miraidon mu and iron treads fit in rlly well as it acts as an anti lead vs other hyper offense teams sets up rocks and provides spin in case i fk up with opposing hazards.
Calyrex-Ice @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: As One (Glastrier)
Tera Type: Fire
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Brave Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Trick Room
- Swords Dance
- Glacial Lance
- High Horsepower
to finish it off calyrex ice was a perfect fit as it provides room vs arceus ground matchup and acts like a late game cleaner with trick room. Arceus fire and caly ice share a lot of checks excluding necrozma dusk-mane so theres that too.

Now I did peak #1 on the ladder with this team but at that time i had no idea I was gonna make a rmt for it as its been so long since my last rmt (around 3 years). But heres when i was #5
Also i didnt save many replays cause again I didnt plan for rmt MY BAD. But here are some of them -
