Ice Scales Arceus-Ground serves as a sturdy special wall against threats like Eternatus and Flutter Mane with its great bulk and typing. Precipice Blades is chosen over Earthquake for its higher damage output. Tidy Up provides entry hazard removal while boosting Arceus-Ground's offensive presence. Toxic cripples special setup attackers like Arceus-Ghost, physical walls like Groudon and Dondozo that want to switch into Arceus-Ground, and Imposter users. Ability Shield checks Normalize users such as Dragapult and lets Arceus-Ground fare better against Mold Breaker users like Eternatus. Both Tera types offer a resistance to Refrigerate Iron Bundle's Boomburst, with Tera Steel offering a resistance to Dragon, while Tera Water offers a resistance to Palkia-O's Water-type attacks. A second specially defensive Pokemon like Chansey, Dialga-O, or Ice Scales Zacian can handle certain special attackers like Palkia-O and Iron Bundle that Arceus-Ground cannot check without Terastallizing. Corviknight completely nullifies Arceus-Ground's attacks, so it is recommended to pair it with strong attackers that can take advantage of Corviknight, such as Palkia-O and V-create Slaking. Imposter-proof Arceus-Ground with Corviknight or a physically bulky Pokemon immune to Toxic like Guts Slaking.

Ice Scales Arceus-Ground serves as a sturdy special wall against threats like Eternatus and Flutter Mane with its great bulk and typing. Precipice Blades is chosen over Earthquake for its useful higher damage against threats like Eternatus and Flutter Mane. Tidy Up provides entry hazard removal while boosting Arceus-Ground's offensive presence. Toxic cripples setup special attackers like Arceus-Ghost, physical walls like Groudon and Dondozo that want to switch into Arceus-Ground, as well as and Imposter users. Earth Plate is not removable by Knock Off and provides a boost to Precipice Blades. Ability Shield checks Normalize users, (remove comma) and lets Arceus-Ground fare better against Mold Breaker users like Eternatus. Both Tera types offer a resistance to Iron Bundle's Boomburst, with Tera Steel offering a resistance to Dragon, (add comma) while Tera Water offers a resistance to Palkia-O's Water-type attacks. A second specially defensive Pokemon like Ice Scales Zacian or Dialga-O can handle certain special attackers like Palkia-O and Iron Bundle that Arceus-Ground cannot check without Terastallizing maybe mention chansey as none of these handle simple or moldy palk to a safe degree. Arceus-Ground is hard walled completely nullified by Corviknight, so it is recommended to pair it with strong attackers that can take advantage of Corviknight, such as Palkia-O and Flutter Mane v-create slaking maybe?. Imposter-proof Arceus-Ground with Corviknight or a physically bulky Pokemon immune to Toxic like Guts Slaking.
