Sooner or later, Mewtwo will be swapped out for something different with regards to EX Raids. With Arceus being the original Creator Pokémon and being in Gen IV, surely you should only be able to have one due to the stats that it is bound to have? But at the same time Arceus does seem like a good swap to be made. Any thoughts?

I’d say special research. Like you said, you should only be able to have one, the same way we only have one Mew and will most likely only get one Celabi. Special research is the better choice in my opinion.

I think it will be a research reward. Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, they are all connected to nature. Arceus, the _creator of all Pokemon,_ for goodness sake! It perfectly fits that theme. I think the next EX Raid boss will be Regigas, or at least another Pokemon made for battle.

Legendary

- Field Research

- Raids

Mythical

- Special Research

This is what I think, but I can’t know it.

But should Arceus be a normal legendary or an EX Raid and people have loads of them? It’s not technically mythical either so where should it go, all purely hypothetical of course…

Keep Mewtwo as Ex Raid.

Make Arceus a special field research so everyone has a chance to get it.

Um, this is the Generation IV section, it exists for a reason. Also, we’re allowed to speculate and have ideas about the future.
