* Arceus's [[signature move]], {{m|Judgment}}, is the only move that Arceus is guaranteed [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] for, as it is always the same type as Arceus itself. However, on the battle screen, Judgment is always displayed as a {{type|Normal}} attack.

* If an Arceus holding a [[Plate]] is hacked to have an Ability other than Multitype, it will remain in its current sprite, but will revert to Normal-type, regardless of what Plate it is holding, creating a situation not unlike {{a|Illusion}}.
