>>12365001Overall I'm thinking it has to do with the "Fateful Encounter" flag needed to trigger the Arceus backstory event in Plat, the one you catch that way doesn't have it.
What's strange though, if you take an Arceus caught via Azure Flute to HG/SS, you can make a second trip to Sinjoh Ruins and claim another Dialga/Palkia/Giratina, and all NPCs involved have altered dialogue, so it was probably a last minute decision not to distribute it.
