Which Arceus will be tinned?

I understand one of the three Arceus Lv. Xs will be tinned, but which one? Logically it would be Omniscience, is that right?

Omniiscience is the "really good" one. The other's aren't bad but aren't as good.

sorry about that let me clear it up for u.
if u research each set and look what in the the starter deck for that set, bc some of them come with a lvx card.
now instead of having those pokmon lvx come out of a starter deck, pokmon usa break them into a tin.
which is smart bc it means more money.
pokmon usa also does it to make it fair for american plays to have the same chance as japans players.
personaly i like the tins idea bc u get some packs with it too.

Extremely educated guess.

Almost every tin lv x's art has been different from it's original art in one way - the Pokemon faces the opposite direction. Take a look at Giratina, Regigigas, Mewtwo, Regigigas, Rayquaza, Charizard.

http://pokebeach.com/2009/09/arceus-lvx-tin

That one faces the opposite way from the Omniscient one, and both look similar compared to the Meteor Blast and Psychic Bolt ones.

Also, you'll notice in the background of the Arceus LV X's that they have the colors of the types on Energy they use.

Meteor Blast - Red and Green
Psychic Bolt - Purple and Yellow
Omniscient - Rainbow

The tin LV X's background is also rainbow.

So no, I don't have inside info that others don't, im just putting the pieces together. Who knows, I could be wrong completely.

Is this tin going to be like the lucario tin, with just one tin with one arceus? I'm taking a guess that it is Ominiscent, because its the only one that is different from the other ones with the 2 poke bodys if it is only 1 tin..

Its the Omniscient one.

But its not particularly good, certainly not "the good one". Multitype is the key and they all have that. The Psychic Bolt one actually offers more to the deck than Omniscient. As long as you level up your Sky Spears that is.

Uh, with the omniscent one you're able to have so many techs available to you and you also listed like the two worst attacks arceus has Sky Spear is like a 6th prize attack, as well as the lightning psychic attack, getting 3-2 energies behind is absolutely horrible, also the Arceus can use the abilities of the other arceus Lv.X.

i am not that smart, but i can piece together that you need to lay off the pokemon.

Does anybody have the official date on when the tins come out? Wouldn't it be funny if the other 2 tins were the Arceus tins as well? xD

I actually put alot of the same things together in my head and completely agree with your hypothesis. Also, they just look so SIMILAR in posture (the whole leaning in thing), and there really isn't any reason for the background to be multi colored if it was a dual type Arceus.
Also, if you think about it, the other two Arceus are both different from the Omnicient one. They're both very linear in the fact that they have physical attacks, whereas Omniscient stands out by having 2 bodies.

I'm not trying to say that Omnicient is going to be the tinned card. I don't even mean to say it'll be the ONLY tinned card (I honestly think there will be more and that they're just not mentioned yet. But all the same, I really am crossing my fingers, strictly because I like the Arceus cards and think they're a completely viable arch-type

You clearly don't know how the Arceus deck works...

The combo that allows the deck to work is Ripple Swell/Multitype/Beginning Door. Psychic Bolt is the strongest attack available to you and therefore the primary attack used in the deck. 100 damage, any type, no weakness. Not too shabby.

Omniscient is useful, but only really as a luxury.

Arceus strikes me as a deck that, as its based of a selection of a dozen or so cards, can be played a dozen or so different ways. Your "You clearly don't know how the Arceus deck works..." comment was just plain rude. Thats like telling someone running the Metal Empoleon as a lock deck that they are running Empoleon wrong because they aren't using Dual Splash to spread. Its a different deck. Maybe your deck runs by spamming Psychic Bolt. Maybe his runs by taking advantage of a large spread of different attacks for different situations. Both are Arceus...
