Fur Coat Arceus-Poison is a pretty good wall thanks to its typing, which gives it an edge against foes like Ash-Greninja, Pheromosa, Mega Beedrill, and Choice Band Mega Mewtwo X. Earth Plate + Judgment provides a solid way to hit most Steel-types and synergizes well with Mortal Spin, which can remove entry hazards against most teams. Strength Sap slows down most physical threats, provides an advantage against Imposter users, and offers some leeway against Ground-type coverage like Headlong Rush. Arceus-Poison's biggest nemesis is Magic Guard Mega Mewtwo X; it can ruin Arceus-Poison with Lumina Crash, eat Judgment completely fine, and it enjoys switching in on Mortal Spin as a means to block paralysis. As such, support against it, like Yveltal and Ho-Oh, is highly recommended; these also help against Ground-type threats like Mega Garchomp. Arceus-Poison also appreciates allied hazard removal, as Celesteela completely shuts it down, and Steel-types like Mega Steelix can spinblock if Arceus-Poison doesn't have many boosts. Arceus-Poison Imposter-proofs itself thanks to Earth Plate, although it usually takes a while to win the one-on-one; Jungle Healing Chansey can also deny its healing and shake off poison.
