While the tenth movie introduced Dialga and Palkia, and the eleventh introduced Giratina, the twelfth introduces Arceus, who serves as the [[OlympusMons creator deity]] in Pokémon myth. As we learn more or less immediately, Arceus is ''not'' a happy camper and has every intention of bringing humans to Justice (read:[[HumansAreBastards annihilating all of humanity]]), starting with [[WatchingTroyBurn the town of Michina]], the site of an age old betrayal.

* BequeathedPower: Arceus makes the Jewel of Life from their own plates to give to Damos to restore his land, though he wants to eventually have it back, leading to Arceus' wrath when Damos refuses.



* GodIsDispleased: Arceus once cared for humans and even [[BequeathedPower gave humans some of their own power in the form of the Jewel of Life]] but after being betrayed, attacked and having the person they gave it to refuse to give them back the Jewel of Life, they become displeased with humans and want to exact judgment on them.

Disambiguating No Pronunciation Guide


* InconsistentDub: The dub of the movie pronounces Arceus' name as "Ark-ee-us", whereas the original Japanese version pronounces it as "Ar-say-us". Fans of the games and [[VideoGame/PokemonStadium Pokémon Battle Revolution]] have also used "Ar-see-us", which is still in popular usage today. Apparently, the pronunciation was originally going to be "Ar-see-us", until they realized the first two syllables sounded too much like [[DidNotDoTheBloodyResearch arse]]. Then they experimented with "Ar-say-us", the Japanese pronunciation, but then settling on "Ar-key-us".

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Ash, Dawn, and Brock doing nothing but standing there as Kevin explicitly orders them to escape as ''Giratina'' is in the distance fighting Dialga. Then Ash impulsively runs into the lake to get to Giratina. Granted, Giratina doesn't hurt him, but it was still a pretty dumb move when up against the enraged, 14ft tall EldritchAbomination.

* AmbiguousGender: Arceus is intended to be genderless even in the movies. This is both helped and hindered by the voice actor.
** And in Japan, it's voiced by [[DragQueen Akihiro Miwa]].

* EntertaininglyWrong: In the present, Team Rocket hide in the ruins of Michina from the ongoing battle in the present, and become excited when they find several old artifacts, believing them to be precious treasures. In the previous scene set in the past, what they actually found were mundane objects like a cooking pot and a Cyndaquil harness.



* TimeyWimeyBall: Although the film addresses the GrandfatherParadox above, it fails to address the fact that [[spoiler:successfully returning the Jewel of Life to Arceus should also give them no reason to have ever gone to the past.]] In short, it doesn't have a StableTimeLoop, though it could be HandWaved by the presence of Dialga, who has [[AWizardDidIt complete and total control over the flow of Time]], not to mention ''his'' superior, Arceus...
