Arceus ex synergizes with other Pokemon found in the Triumphant Light expansion. Having Arceus or Arceus ex in the field can trigger abilities like reduced Retreat Cost, reduced Attack Cost, or Bonus Attack Damage to specific Pokemon.
Triumphant Light Card List (A2a)
Arceus ex's ability prevents it from being afflicted with any Special Condition. It is a very effective counter against cards who inflict status effects like Weezing or Kakuna.
To maximize Arceus ex's damage output, you will need at least 6 Basic Pokemon within your deck (2 copies of 3 Basic Pokemon for Bench). Because of this condition, you may face difficulty in pulling the right cards in your hand. This is where cards like Pokemon Communication can come in handy.
