A '''Plate''' (Japanese: '''プレート''' ''Plate'') is a type of [[held item]] introduced in [[Generation IV]], primarily for use in [[Variant Pokémon#Arceus|changing]] the type and color of {{p|Arceus}} and the type of its [[signature move]], {{m|Judgment}} to the corresponding type of Plate. However, it will also increase the attack power of [[move]]s of the Plate's type used by any Pokémon holding it by 20%. There is a Plate available for every type except {{t|Normal}}, and while there exists a {{type|???}} Arceus in the Generation IV data, there is no associated ??? Plate, meaning there are 16 Plates in total. In Generation V, the ???-type has been removed from the data altogether. | A '''Plate''' (Japanese: '''プレート''' ''Plate'') is a type of [[held item]] introduced in [[Generation IV]], primarily for use in [[Variant Pokémon#Arceus|changing]] the type and color of {{p|Arceus}} and the type of its [[signature move]], {{m|Judgment}} to the corresponding type of Plate.

The Plates appeared again in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', where {{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}} used them to change its type, and almost died when it lost all of the Plates after having destroyed a meteor. [[Damos]] found one of these lost Plates and returned it to Arceus, giving it the strength to recall the other 15 plates. That act earned its trust and prompted it to detach the Earth Plate, Splash Plate, Meadow Plate, Zap Plate, and Draco Plate in the form of the [[Jewel of Life]] so Damos could make [[Michina Town]] flourish. | The Plates appeared again in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', where {{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}} used them to change its type, and almost died when it lost all of the Plates after having destroyed a meteor.
