#4 Arceus - Arceus (pl4)
Arceus is a Water-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It includes a single attack named Fastwave, which requires one Water and two Colorless energy to use, dealing 50 damage. The attack’s damage bypasses typical resistances and counters like Poké-Powers or Poké-Bodies, making it a direct threat. The card carries a rarity of Rare and is part of the Platinum series, released as part of the Arceus set on November 4, 2009. Its flavor text hints at ancient origins, referencing a mythological tale of its existence predating the universe. The card is illustrated by artist Kouki Saitou and has no listed resistances, though it is weak to Lightning-type attacks with double damage. Additional rules state that multiple copies of this card can be included in a deck.
