Since Arceus was voted the most popular, the character will be given away in Pokémon: Black and White. As mentioned above, the polling was held to determine which Pocket Monster would appear in B&W. Besides being rare, Arceus was the star of a recent Pokémon film.

Famed actor, author and singer Akihiro Miwa voiced Arceus in the film. Miwa was very close with Japanese writer Yukio Mishima.
