As of now, Arceus is not available in Pokémon GO. This Pokémon is among those present in the game’s files, but there is currently no official method to obtain it through capture, egg, trade, or event.
Neither raids, nor special quests, nor eggs currently allow you to add Arceus to your Pokédex. Therefore, it is pointless to look for it on the map or wait for a specific event for the time being.
Here’s how to get Arceus in Pokémon GO (when it becomes available)
Even though Arceus is currently unavailable, it is likely that Niantic will make it accessible in a future update, as has been the case with many legendary or regional Pokémon.
Here are the most common methods to obtain this type of Pokémon when it becomes available:
🥚 Par éclosion d’œufs spéciaux (2 km, 5 km, 10 km ou 12 km selon l’événement)
🔍 Via une Étude spéciale ou Étude de terrain
🏟️ Dans un raid (niveau 3, 4 ou légendaire)
📦 Offert comme récompense lors d’un événement limité
🔁 Disponible via des échanges entre dresseurs
🎁 Débloqué via une célébration spéciale ou un Community Day.
Where to catch Arceus in Pokémon GO?
Currently, there is no specific location or biome where you can catch Arceus in Pokémon GO. The Pokémon is not available to catch in the wild, whether in parks, urban areas, countryside, or particular points of interest.

L’obtenir lors d’un événement mondial ou régional
Why isn’t Arceus available yet?
Several reasons may explain why Arceus is still absent from Pokémon GO:
Il s’agit d’un Pokémon légendaire ou mythique, souvent réservé à des événements spéciaux
Il appartient à une génération récente non encore totalement intégrée au jeu
Niantic suit une stratégie de déploiement progressif, pour maintenir l’intérêt du jeu sur le long terme
Il peut nécessiter une mécanique particulière encore non implémentée dans Pokémon GO (formes multiples, conditions météo uniques, objets spéciaux…)
