The original Unovan dragon could represent reflection in an emotional sense. The titles Black and White represent Yin and Yang, but are also a play on the idea that things are not one side or the other, instead being a gray middle ground. It could represent reflecting on your ideals like N does throughout the story of BW.

Just thought about something. My theory what if Arceus is the Yolk/Baby/Being inside the egg. When there was nothing and it cracked. And Rayquaza,Kyreum,Zygard, Necromza,Eternatus and Gen9 Dragon also Future Gen Dragons. Are the Shell of the Egg for example crack piece or fragments of it that scattered the Universe when the Egg Hatched. That’s probably why some of those dragons come from deep outer space or hit the earth and fell in a deep slumber. Or lost their power/item that makes them powerful. Just what if all those dragons merge with Arceus or transfer their power to reveal the true form of Arceus. Or if they all transfer their power Arceus might revert back to a egg. Lol I know I’m all over the place here 😅my bad it just got me thinking 🤔

It'd also explain why there is little mention of Arceus in the Sinnoh games.

@Howie Hall: I'm thinking that the Transformations Dialga and Palkia go through might have been them becoming *Possessed* by Giratina - thus the "Origin Forme" Title. If Giratina is indeed a member of this 'Archeus' of Dragons that rival Arceus in power, perhaps its ultimate potential comes from Ghost-like Possession of other powerful Pokémon! Both Giratina and Eternatus seem to portray the Darker elements of Infinity Energy, too. Both use a modified form of it to overpower Pokémon into a state where it desperately tries to release that energy, making it frenzied and uncontrollable. Giratina's ability to do this is important enough to make it onto the Plate Inscriptions, and is how Volo's been causing the Chaos in the Hisui Region. Giratina's ultimate goal of usurping Arceus' rule over the region required a significantly powerful Pokémon to control as its host in the Physical World, and the direct offshoots of Arceus' Power were ideal for its plans!

That would very reasonably explain why pokemon disapear into motes of light when you drain their energy away, and why they flop without any apparent injuries when exhausted. So long as you don't keep smacking them after they faint, they are apparently immune to actual injury. But if you keep dealing damage beyond that threshold, keep attacking when they're down, then permanent injuries such as broken legs, bleeding wounds, gaping holes in their torso, or strait up death have all been shown. Binging through the anime I was surprised to find out just how much clout the job of the referee is given, and EVERY single instance of a pokemon having serious wounds after a fight have all been battles without a ref.

Complete Zygard - you can get, kind of. It only really appears in battle under certain conditions. Ultra Necrozma - gen 8 has no z-crystals and so you can't have this pokemon form from the fused Necrozma. Also this form is battle exclusive as well. G-Max Eternatus - you can't g-max this pokemon after catching it, thus we can ignore that it's a battle exclusive form too because you can't even get it. This makes me wonder. If they do give us the original dragon, will it be obtainable? And if so, will it only be battle exclusive?

If I may add to the "1000 Arms" aspect of Arceus, what if you were to include a healthy majority of Legendary Pokemon on top of the enigmatic purposes of the Unown. With a few key exceptions like Silvally, Mewtwo, and Genesect, most of the Legendaries are in themselves deified for an aspect that they can govern/manipulate. For example- Lugia for tides and currents, Groudon for landmasses and their formation, Xerneas for life force, Ho-oh for rebirth, Shaymin for beauty and gratitude, and Solgaleo for the Sun for its light and warmth. They could all be beings created by The Original One to govern natural laws and aspects of the Pokemon world as we know it, and as such could all loosely tie back to Arceus itself as its "arms"

I'm really digging Theory #4 and #5 I do think that the myriad of energies involved in various phenomena such as Mega Evolution or Dynamax/Gigamtimax all stems from the same energy. I however would classify it like this: @: Primordial Energy or Chaos Energy Then Primordial/Chaos Energy then warps into one of three possible altered states of expression of that energy which then gives rise to these phenomena: -Light Energy: Chaos Energy refracted as radiation emitted from Ultra Necrozma which gives Totems their Power and Size, causes the existence of Ultra Space and Ultra Wormholes, which really seem to function more as Pocket Dimensions of Alternate Realities, and of course the Emergence and Prominence of the Z-Move Phenomena in Alola. -Cosmic Energy: Primordial/Chaos Energy which was distorted by the presence of Eternatus, which allows Power Spots to exist that allow Pokémon to Dynamax or Gigantimax in Galar. Like Light Energy, Cosmic Energy seems to also be responsible for opening up gateways to other dimensions and places as evidenced apparently by the existence of non-galar native legends appearing in the Max Raid Lair. -Infinity Energy: This is apparently Primordial Energy which has been altered by nature to give and sustain life, thus it is more like Life Essence as was mentioned in this video. Apparently, tapping into this Life Energy is what causes Pokémon to Mega Evolve. Yet this Energy can also be applied to open up Wormholes into Alternate Dimensions as well evidenced by the collaboration of the Mossdeep Space Center and Devon Corporation to solve the Meteor Crisis in ORAS Delta Episode. The one thing these 3 phenomena have in common is that A: They are altered states of the same Primordial Energy that came from when the Original One came to be and the universe was spawned and B: They all have the Power to open up gateways within the Time-Space Fabric into Alternate Realities and Dimensions. That's what I can infer from all this anyway, but this is an interesting theory nonetheless.

I discovered a very interesting fan theory on Reddit as follows: We all know that Arceus gave life to Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina to govern creation. However, I believe there may be a fourth member of the trio. I'm speaking of the Original Dragon, the form that Kyurem, Reshiram, and Zekrom, once took. Let's start with the Creation Trio's typings. Dialga is Dragon/Steel, Palkia is Dragon/Water, and Giratina is Dragon/Ghost. The secondary types represent solid, liquid, and gas respectively. The fourth state of matter is plasma, only there's no dragon representing that... but there used to be. Reshiram and Zekrom's Fire and Electric types represent different forms of plasma, right? Add all that heat into one being and you would definitely get a being that represents plasma. If anything, plasma type would make a lot of sense in the Pokemon world as to solve the typing of the origin dragon, being Dragon/Plasma. In my own bias, Plasma does very well at covering many fan ideas for new type additions, such as cosmic, nuclear, sound, light, etc. I just think plasma fits these all really well and really is the missing type in Pokémon. Now, typing alone wouldn't be enough to place this dragon with the Creation Trio. It would need to have control over some fundamental aspect of reality. And I think that would be energy. Energy is the "why" for why pretty much everything happens in the universe. You have Reshiram and Zekrom, who represent the presence of energy, while Kyurem represents the absence. Sure, there are other types of energy beyond heat, but I can't think of a more fitting symbol of energy than the generators the Tao Trio have for their tails. Maybe the dragon would have an "inactive" mode where its body is frozen, and an "active" mode where the ice is completely gone and plasma surges throughout it. Something else that may point to it being a god is the concepts they're based off of. Zekrom represents Yin, Reshiram represents Yang, and Kyurem is the circle surrounding the two, Wuji. When Yin and Yang are bound by Wuji, they become [Taiji](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiji_(philosophy), and its potential becomes unlimited. In Taoist mythology, Taiji is the "Supreme Ultimate," which is the highest conceivable principle and that from which all existence flows. This ties perfectly into the theme of energy that the Tao Trio has going on. So we've got that out of the way. But I believe there's more evidence to be found in BW and BW2 to support a connection. In the postgame of Black and White, you receive the Adamant, Lustrous and Griseous Orb from Ghetsis as a gift/warning. This never went anywhere, but perhaps Game Freak was planning more Sinnoh involvement in BW2 that time restraints/storage space couldn't handle. And this may not mean anything, but it's interesting to note that Ghetsis had control over the Creation Trio in the TCG. It could be another Fake Oak situation, who knows. Dialga, Palkia, Giratina In the postgame of Black 2 and White 2, the Creation Orbs are found in Dragonspiral Tower, the place where you encounter Reshiram and Zekrom. The game could have placed them in the Cave of Being, or maybe had someone hand them to you elsewhere... But why here, at the location most strongly associated with the Tao Trio? The Cave of Being. The Lake Trio are capable of restraining a Creation Dragon, and they've got a cavern that leads from Sinnoh directly to Unova. In the code of BW, Kyurem’s dragon stone is called the God Stone, which definitely confirms your fifth theory and may even place Kyurem as higher than the other elements of Arceus. As for reflection, I believe it refers to a reflection in philosophical terms, of which Gen 5 goes incredibly in depth with how the parts of the original dragon which split actually represent different philosophies of life. So that's my general theory. Does it hold up? Does it stretch too much? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I also have a thought on that Copy pasted from another OP I did Also Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf as well. So Knowledge to know how to see the Truth as well as bring your Ideals to life for Uxie. Emotions to bring the Truth to light as well as how Ideals are shaped by them. Willpower to pursue the Truth and your Ideals. So "The reflection of Human thoughts" are six beings now. Uxie, Mespirt, Azelf, Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem. Also Light and Shadow/Darkness is a reflection of each other.

Well, Legends Arceus kind of gave us the answer to the first theory. Arceus straight up tells us that what we see is only "a part of" itself. The boss fight also shows that it is capable of using the abilities of Dialga, Palkia, _and_ Giratina. I think it's safe to say that Arceus is definitely a god.

With the reflection part, three Pokes come to mind: - Hoppa, a powerful pokemon that can make wormholes in space to connect two universes just like a mirror. Maybe Hoppa has a unknow form and you need another pokemon to do it, maybe one pokemon that we haven't seen. Remember that in his movie, he handled legendaries as if he were a pokemon master... and even Arceus himself had to go down just to correct what he can do in his released form. -Kyurem, who is said to be the shell or remains of what he was before and also arrived in a meteor, rememeber this last part. Also, i think he lacks something to be able to combine at the same time with Zekrom/Reshiram, as if he was undecided ... maybe he lacks of the soul of the old pokemon ... and I really think that soul that he lack will be Giratina. Let's see. What if the current status of Dialga/Palkia/Giratina depends on each one of the lake trio, with Uxie being the one in charge of Giratina. Being Uxie the pokemon of wisdom, he used his wisdom to divide the powerful "Kyur-atina" with a logical paradox that ended up dividing it between truth and ideals, leaving the empty shell Kyurem and the pure soul without desires and prejudices Giratina. Perhaps that is why the myths refer to him being very aggressive, and it would explain why he was banished even to another dimension to get away from the other parts of him and avoid his reincorporation at all costs. That maybe the part missing of kyurem to fuse correctly, a soul to decide which part to embrace. Also, the original form of Giratina is the only one who looks like a soul without body. -Giratina, it is said that he is stronger than Dialga/Palkia but for now his power only seems equal to these. Although this one already has another form, maybe it will also receive another form with Arceus/Dialga/Palkia in future games. Also this pokemon was seen in the movies as being able to move between his world and ours using directly... yes, the reflections of things.

So once you capture Arceus he tells you the pretty much you're taking a little bit of him with you so that means that the Arceus that we capture is not the real one,pretty much a spec or a pinky of his many hands.

I love the theory that Megas and Z-power and Dynamax and Gigantamax and aura is the same. That's cool. And it sort of explains why each region has its own gimmick, right? Kalos interpreted infinity energy as Megas, Alola interpreted it as Z-power and beast boosts, and Galar interpreted it as Dynamax and Gigantamax. That's actually so lit!

Well, you're partially right on that "false God" thing, considering that the Arceus we're all familiar with isn't the being's real identity or even physical form... "Arceus" is just a name we gave it, and the Llama stuck in a fence is just an avatar created to be his eyes and voice in our world.

The first theory is interesting considering the new forms of the Sinnoh box legendaries because they are supposed to be their “Primal” forms, with Giratina’s equivalent not having a ring like them and Arceus. Maybe this is why they were considered “too violent”, because their power couldn’t be properly restrained like them

A Nice aproch to this theory of Arceus not being the “GOD” is the fact that when you capture it, it says something like “take this part of me, show me the world through your eyes or something

On the video surrounding Sinnoh legends, I was thinking about the passage where “humans and Pokémon were once the same, married, had children…” and I think it refers to the fact that humans were evolved from pokemon, similar to how people in the real world are evolved from what seems more like the average, unintelligent apes. It would make a lot of sense, and there are a lot of human like pokemon as well.
