Some people have said that the weird Palkia / Dialga are the final bosses in this game. What about Arceus? I mean, he appears in the fucking title of the game. Can you catch Him or was the title just a mislead a-la FFVIIR?

He's the final post-game mission. The unironic real end of the story.

Darkrai is already in the game, no clue about cresselia though.

You can catch him, we've seen the fucking entire script datamined, he is the ultimate final mission in the game (if you don't count Pokédex autism) until they add dlc. You get an avatar with a sliver of his power as your Pokémon, because he's literally God and above everything else in his true undiluted self

The text seems to imply that Arceus will join you to me.
It also seems like they're making the "the Arceus we catch is just one of the 1000 arms" theory canon.

It says 'part of myself', most likely meaning just the legend plate.

Seems kind of odd, I don't think the plates have ever been implied to be sentient before, so Arceus walking beside you don't really make much sense to me.

Arceus also has full-fledges Pokédex data, although that does admittedly not mean much, looking at you Eternal Floette.

>>49369314
Not entirely sure since I haven't followed any streams since I want the actual gameplay to be unspoiled to me, but catching Cresselia seems to be a part of the main story. Pic related.

Darkrai's mission has been confirmed on the official site to be unlocked by you having BDSP save data on your switch.

Gee anon, I don't know. Do you think they added all of his plates, and modelled every typing of Arceus and put him in the Pokédex simply for fun?

Volo says plates are fragments of a deity -- definitely arceus

Just seems a bit contrived.
Like there was no reason to create the Blank Plate from a lore perspective. The only reason is from a mechanical one since there are no Held Items in the game, and the plates function as Key Items instead, so you would need another one for Normal. Doesn't make sense if you're not intended to be able to catch Arceus.

Some guy shared this pic which definitely shows (shiny) Arceus as part of his party, but it’s also definitely hacked, so…
