in reality...our earth's crust is divided into many small large and small fragments,called tectonic plates. their extremely slow movement is responsible for change in shape of continents in every million or billion years and earthquakes and in few cases,volcanic eruptions in present days,
in pokemon,these are different elemental plates found by searching, and digging underground....they give a boost in attack acc to their type,like zap plate boosts electrical attacks,and,if given to arceus(a legendary event only pokemon),changes the type of his special attack called "judgement"

What is the longitude of all deserts?
There are deserts on every continent on earth and all occur at different longitudes.
How were the Canadian rockies formed?
They were formed when the earth's plates collided with each other.
How many different plates are there?
There are 16, one for each type
Do you need all the plates to catch Arceus?
No, you do not need all of the plates to catch Arceus. You can use the plates to change Arceus' type, though. Arceus is only available by event (which has long since passed). You can also use an AR (action replay) to hack the game and get an Arceus, all without plates.
Can arceas change types?
Yes Arceas can change types with the plates u find on u'r journy
What is the Tectonic plate?
that the earth crust are made up of all different plates
What do all of the plates have in common?
all plates have different boundaries.
What is the large plate and how is it different from all the other plates?
The Pacific plate is the largest of all,consisting of 20 percent of the Earth's crust. All of these plates, with the exception of the Pacific plate, contain both continental and ocean crust. Smaller plates include the Caribbean and Arabian plates.
When the earth's plates shift the results is?
When the Earth's plates shift, it can result in earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains. These movements occur at plate boundaries, where tectonic forces cause the plates to interact in different ways, leading to various geological events.
Would earth be different if its crust did not move and it lacked tectonic plates?
Its surface would look like that of the Moon, Mars or Mercury all of which do not have tectonic plates and a fixed crust.
How and why earthquakes occur?
Earthquakes occur when a shift in the earth's crust causes tremors to rock the surface of the earth around the shift. Since the Earth's crust is divided into different plates, and these plates move around (very slowly) on the earth, there are earthquakes. Also, since there are different parts that the plates meet at, there are certain "hotspots" where more earthquakes happen (where the plates meet).
Do all the tectonic plates move at the same rate?
No, tectonic plates move at different rates. Some plates move faster than others, while some plates move very slowly. The movement of the plates is driven by the underlying convection currents in the Earth's mantle.
Earth's crust is divided into many different tectonic 'what'?
Tectonic or lithospheric plates.
What tectonic plate is a slab of the earth's?
All tectonic plates are part of the Earth crust.
What are the different pieces of the Earth's crust called?
Along with their attached rigid uppermost mantle, they are referred to as tectonic plates.
Are tectonic plates and Earth plates the same?
No! of course not, you see tectonic plates were discovered over 9000 years ago by scientist Seymour Bootay. Earth plates are much different. they were discovered in 1969 by the aurthor of the famous book "yellow river": I.P. Daily.
What part of earth contains plates?
The lithosphere is the part of the Earth that contains tectonic plates. These plates are divided pieces of the lithosphere that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them.
