Fridge Brilliance
- Why is Pikachu, of all things, able to harm Arceus when the Creation trio can't? For starters, the trio only landed attacks that could be negated somehow (Hyper Beam and Aura Sphere were negated by Arceus turning into a Ghost type, while Giratina's Will-o-Wisp was negated by the Flame Plate since Fire types can't be burned), possibly for fear of collateral damage. Secondly and most importantly, the Plates used to create the Jewel of Life included the Zap, Meadow, Earth, and Draco Plates — which are all the types that resist Electric.
Fridge Horror
- When the timeline is rewritten, it is not stated completely that Arceus fell into a sleep that lasted until the present. We see three of its Plates in a flashback in Pokémon: Hoopa and the Clash of Ages, indicating that it helped create the Prison Bottle. This could signal that if the Jewel of Life was never returned, Hoopa would still be terrorizing Dahara City.*
- Pokémon Legends: Arceus implies that the Arceus we know is merely a piece of a much, much more powerful being. So the electricity and metal would not have killed said greater entity. So why were Ash and his friends still fading? Did Arceus do something in retaliation that completely erased anything resembling the future?
