I will pick Giratina. But only its Origin forme. Don't know why but its Altered forme seems weird to me and I love seeing Giratina around the Distortion World.

Being Giratina my first one, the second would be Palkia. I have to say I have only played Pokémon Diamond and Platinum, but Palkia has something that I like. And I think I got tired of seeing Dialga everytime I played Diamond so that could be another reason why I like Palkia more than Dialga. And isn't it cool the combination of Water/Dragon type?

I use Giratina the most. Not that I hate the other two, but this guy is just a balance between the trio.

Not to mention that its Attack and Special Attack are fairly balanced.

Oh, I see that for the moment I'm the only one who voted Palkia...
I'm not really fond of this trio now, but in my first game of Pearl Version, I really liked Palkia. I was more interested in the master of space than in the master of time, and I liked its double-type. Its design is pretty... Strange, of course, but I prefer it than Dialga's or Giratina's.

I completely agree, pearl was my first pokemon game and I absolutely fell in love with palkia. I then got diamond and dialga just wasn't as exciting to go after as it was for palkia.
So I would have to say Palkia, Giratina, then Dialga.

Dialga because of its type and because of Roar of Time. Primal Dialga also looked extremely cool.

I honestly prefer dialga because ice attacks and dragon attacks only deal normal damaga......... besides it has only one weakness and that is the gorund type

Of the three, I would say that Giratina is my favorite. It has my favorite typing of the three (although I do like Dialga's Steel/Dragon, too). I also love that it has the two formes, one more offensive and the other defensive.

Also, the Distortion World made me like Giratina that much more!

I'll be honest, I don't like any of them :p But if I had to choose, I'd go with Dialga just because of it's Steel typing. I think Palkia is somewhat cool but it's design looks rude ;; Giratina I just plain don't like because it's scary and unoriginal - plus it looks more like a Yugioh monster than anything xD And Dialga's somewhat cool with a pretty sleek design and an interesting typing, so he wins my vote n.n

Even though I haven't used any of the three in my main team I'm going with Dialga here. I think its design outruled the other two easily. A unique typing - Dragon/Steel, seriously that's a great type to introduce!

Being the ruler of time in Pokemon which sounds like a hard job. Yet Dialga manages it so well xD. Although all legendaries are powerful, this one is beastly with it's signature move- Roar of Time.

So for this one, I'm going with Dialga all the way xD.

Palkia for me. I hate Dialga because it always cheats on PMD. Stupid Roar of Time. And Palkia is pink. PINK!!!! I have a problem.

Need I say more?
I'd explain it in the same way, but I'd say Palkia is a purple-pink kind of guy.

I liked Dialga the most because of its design. Although Giratina comes in second with its Origin Form.

I've always hated Giratina. Palkia's awesome though. Cool-looking dinosaur dragon thing with a pink body. STAB Surf doesn't hurt either.

I've despised Palkia's design since day one, so it's a toss-up between Dialga and Giratina (Origin Forme). Think I gotta go with Dialga. Steel/Dragon is a pretty nice typing.

Dialga is a bad ass looking pokemon, Palkia is okay looking, And Giratina in origin Forme looks bad ass, But I like Dialga better.

I choose Giritina. The Ghost/dragon typing is pretty awesome and I like how he is he keeps the dimensions in balance. Definately my fav of Arceus's dragon trio(well i liked dialga first but Giritina caught my eye when I found out he existed)
