Completely unrelated, but I find it both funny and sad that every one keeps calling this "Mega/Primal Arceus". Coincidentally, I actually created this form LONG before megas ever existed (first image submitted in 2009). That being said, THIS IS NOT A MEGA! It does not function like a mega, it does not have the stats of a mega, it does not have the limitations of a mega. I will be giving Arceus a mega of my own (based on a centaur/unicorn) to clear up the confusion. The Gospel form is a trophy form. It is ridiculously overpowered but can only be used non competitively. And it is an actual form, so it stays in this form as long as the correct conditions are met, not just during a battle.

I also find it funny that the ONE FORM I decide to make humanoid is the one form everyone seems to criticize for being so. I guess most people hate the idea of a humanoid creator. I'll admit, I'm not a big fan of humanoids either, in fact only a handful of fakemon I've ever created have ever been even remotely so. I also understand the dislike of this design because of that. Probably the biggest argument I've seen against it though is that "turning an animal pokemon into a human pokemon is too much like Digimon" (Zygarde says hello). AAAAAAAND, mega evolutions DIDN'T make it too much like Digimon? Seriously, Pokemon has slowly been turning into Digimon for years now. The "animals to humans" thing is minor compared to everything else. Just saying.

Oh, I am also currently redoing this. The legs are freakishly huge and some of the anatomy is off, so a rework feels necessary. There will be an update in the near future.

update 2: looks like when I fixed the line art I actually messed up the eyes. fixed that.

update: noticed some floating black lines, so I went back and fixed it.

edit: I made a gif of the types! :D added to imgur because I have no idea how to upload a gif here i.imgur.com/mDoYwUz.gif order of the types is: basic, grass, fire, water, electric, ice, fairy, dragon, psychic, dark, cosmic, normal, ghost, fighting, flying, poison, ground, rock, crystal, steel, bug, and glitch. while the plates he hold change the type of judgment and his color, they do not change his type. same goes for the other two.

I'm sorry, I have an issue with the wimpy God-Llama Nintendo gave us. Arceus deserved so much more. So I fixed it! I'm lazy, and I wrote about the gospel for mechanics eons ago, so here's what I wrote:

:bulletwhite: the higher form of Arceus and Jeruseus/Nahatoa in general ARE ONLY OBTAINABLE IF A CERTAIN CONDITION IS MET.
:bulletwhite: You must have completed the pokedex (minus them/ their forms)(this is INCLUDING event legendaries and all Pokemon forms(other than shinies and of course Arceus/Nahatoa/Jeruseus)), have at least ten pokedex entries in a foreign language, and have defeated the Nahraht elite four AT LEAST 100 times (which if you're like me, training a shit ton of Pokemon to lv 100, this shouldn't be too hard)
:bulletwhite: you CANNOT use them in the battle frontier, battle subway, or link battles
:bulletwhite: you CANNOT trade them (Arceus transferred from previous generations will change into one of the Living Beast trio members)
:bulletwhite: you CANNOT hack for them (your game will crash)
:bulletwhite: likewise, an arceus/jeruseus/nahatoa must be ought to you in order for them to change
:bulletwhite: giving One of the Trinity Trio members a plate will change their color, but not their type
:bulletwhite: they are the only Pokemon to have two abilities active at the same time (mold breaker will break both and an ability changing move will negate only the first one)
:bulletwhite: they will have a separate move set for each form they have (arceus has eight alternate forms, which means it can know a whooping THIRTY-TWO MOVES at the same time)
:bulletwhite: they can all learn every single TM, HM, and move tutor move (this includes the elemental hyper beams, draco meteor, the pledge moves, etc)
:bulletwhite: if they ever do voices, his voice would be like a deep Ian Mckellen, Nahatoa's would be like Morgan Freeman, and Jeruceus's would be more like Liam Neeson's.

I have an issue with the wimpy God-Llama Nintendo gave us. Arceus deserved so much more.


My headcanon is that the 4-legged form is simply a proxy through which Arceus interacts with the physical world. To look at its true form would drive most mortals insane, for they would be gazing upon creation itself.
