-Arceus is a white equine {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} resembling a {{wp|qilin}} or {{wp|centaur}} with a gray, vertically-striated underside. The striated pattern has similar recurrences on the underside of its mane, tail, and face. Its four pointed feet are tipped with gold hooves. Its long mane juts away from its head, and its face is gray, with green eyes and red pupils, and a green circular pattern below its eyes. Arceus also has a streak of gold coloration on its head, and ears that point upward. Its neck is fairly long, with two pairs of extrusions to the sides, and a flap-like feature on the neck's underside that is colored white like much of the body. Arceus also has a golden cross-like wheel attached to its body by its round abdomen, which changes color along with its eyes and hooves based on its current type, which depends on the [[Plate]] or type-specific [[Z-Crystal]] that it wields. The wheel also has four jewels attached to it. The pattern of striated gray of Arceus's underbelly resumes past Arceus's waist. Its limbs have gray undersides and extrusions at the tops of the legs. Arceus's tail is fairly like its mane in terms of shape and coloration. Despite its quadruped appearance, Arceus is capable of flight.

 According to legend, it shaped the Pokémon universe using its 1,000 arms. Arceus has been referred to as "The Original One" in myths and legends, and is generally considered to be one of the strongest Pokémon. Arceus is thought to have created [[Sinnoh]] and [[Ransei]], and possibly the entire [[Pokémon universe]], along with the [[lake guardians]], {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Azelf}}, and {{p|Mesprit}}, as well as {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}} (referred to as the [[creation trio]] by fans). Because of this, Arceus is thought to be one of the most long-lived of all Pokémon species. It has the power to recreate the creation trio as well, presumably to guard the dimensions when a Trainer has caught one of them. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Arceus has been portrayed as having powers such as bringing back things that it once destroyed, making certain things vanish into thin air, halting time, and overturning the very laws of nature. The anime has also [[JN090|shown]] that Arceus has the power to not only calm {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} but also destroy the [[Red Chain]]. Arceus can change its type at will in order to adapt to a situation, as seen with its use of Plates (including the [[Legend Plate]]) or Z-Crystals. Arceus also has the power to create a piece of itself to exist outside of its home dimension which is just as powerful as the original.
