I go for Dialgia. It doesn't matter how they do seperatly, it's how they work in a team. A team has 6, not one. To me, Dialgia can kind work as a tank with his many resistances.

umbros July 23rd, 2007 1:46 AM

I'll take Dialga any day. Thank you, Hoshiko, for mentioning Kingdra. Dialga is actually a creative type combo that's, believe it or not, hard to counter. You have to look at how to counter the two of them. If you're looking to counter Palkia, not really hard. A pretty big handful of pokemon learn outrage, and any of them given a choice band (particularly Garchomp) would probably be able to OHKO a Palkia. If you look at other moves, you're looking for dragon moves that are physical, because Palkia's defense is lower than special defense. That still leaves the incredibly common dragon claw, and the less commonly used dragon rush, and I'm probably forgetting something. Dialga has the two weaknesses to deal with, but they're primarily physical attacking types (ground and fighting). Fighting the only move you really have to worry about is aura sphere, because focus blast is so inaccurate, though more common. And ground? Who's actually going to use a special attacking ground move other than Earth power? So, after all of that applies, you have about the same amount of moves that'll be hurting you a lot. NOW apply the resistances. Palkia's not so appealing anymore.

Palkia? No thanks, I already have Kingdra. Original as it may be, there is still one other pokemon that's Water/Dragon and has balanced stats. Kingdra owns both statwise without having a disadvantage in any stat(correct me if I'm wrong, but he has equal base stats in just about anything)
Why does it matter that Kingdra's stats are balanced when Palkia still beats Kingdra in every stat? Let's compare the base stats:

Kingdra

HP - 75
Attack - 95
Defense - 95
Special Attack - 95
Special Defense - 95
Speed - 85

Palkia

HP - 90
Attack - 120
Defense - 100
Special Attack - 150
Special Defense - 120
Speed - 100

don't get me wrong, though, I'd use Kingdra over Palkia any day. I'm not too fond of ubers.
Quote:

But this isn't about Kingdra. It's about Dialga or Palkia. As I already said, Dialga, but I forgot to put an actual decent reason. Hyper beam moves may suck, but they can be extremely useful. Haven't you noticed that it's sometimes worth it to sacrifice one turn? Spacial rend? No thanks, I already have other critical hit moves. Leaf Blade, Night Slash, and others with higher PP. Plus, critical hits are starting to grow overrated. Note that it's just luck, and not anything else. Plus, Palkia sucks..cause..the ones I battled on PBR, really..just..surprise me to no end. D:
There are very few cases when it's worth sacrificing a turn from a Hyper Beam-like move. It just allows the next Pokémon sent in to obliterate Dialga or set up with Swords Dance, Stealth Rock, Nasty Plot etc while you can't do a thing. Really, if you don't want to go with the lower power from Dragon Pulse, use Draco Meteor. Even after its Sp.Attack is halved, Draco Meteor will do some major damage and against a good player, Dialga probably won't want to stay in long enough to use another Draco Meteor in the first place. And Spacial Rend isn't really that bad. I'd personally go with Draco Meteor for Palkia as well, but Spacial Rend is still a good move even though its PP sucks, which can be a huge pain in Ubers because everybody and his friends have Pressure in Ubers. That, however, doesn't mean Special Rend isn't better than Roar of Time.

I'll agree with that. Sometimes, particularly when you know you'll be knocked out, using a hyper beam move can be similar to using explosion. One last blast before you get wiped out.

Dialga all the way

Hold Scope Lens
Use Spacial Rend
If it hits: Probably 200 Damage
No Recharge

Palkia's stats own only because it's an uber. If it wasn't, Kingdra's stats would own it.

Also, what's the point of using Draco meteor when it's going to sharply lower your special attack? And when the special attack itself sucks already? D:

It may be the highest stat of Palkia, but still...

And yes, it's a risk when using hyper beam moves, but it can sometimes be worth it cause of the power. Remember, there are some points in which you have to make desperate moves.
The point of using Draco Meteor is that from 150 base Sp.Attack, even the second hit will deal massive damage or at least enough damage to knock out the target if it managed to survive the first blow. And since Palkia will usually be running Choice Specs with maxed out Special Attack, it can really put a dent into things. And it's not like anyone is going to keep Palkia in when your opponent switches in his/her special wall, paralyzes Palkia and laughs at you. =\

Except Scope Lens is a hax item and therefore generally frowned upon. Not only that, but Choice Specs and Lustrous Orb are much more reliable sources of extra power.

Sacrifar July 23rd, 2007 9:50 AM

i think palkia is way better than Dialga

Extra Power? Isn't Scope Lens the item that raises your chance of citical hits? Hmm...

i got diamond just for the heck of it and regreted it because i think that diamond is better than pearl. the only reason i like diamond is i can catch larvitars

Yes but Roar of Time makes you recharge while Spacial Rend does not.

Sora_8920 July 24th, 2007 2:35 PM

Palkia is waay Better, even though i like Roar of Time, Signature Moves don't really mean much if they aern't Standard.

Luminous_Reaver July 24th, 2007 3:53 PM

Palkia.

It's pretty awesome.

It's got massive shoulders. That's always been a symbol of masculinity.
Dailga stands on all fours in submission to Palkia's awesome power.

yomokita July 25th, 2007 12:51 AM

Palkia, he looks much cooler than Dialga. He just looks like a dog...

AztecSunshine July 25th, 2007 2:19 AM

dialga is waaaaaaay batter than palkia look at him he palkia, he look as said above like godzila lol but look at dialga he look like armored wolf get it now? he is batter

palkia= :< dialga= :>

I believe Roar of Time's Base Power is 150 while Spacial Rend's is 100. When you use Roar of Time, however, the power can basically be halved. This puts it at 75. Many moves have higher base power than that; and a few of them are Dragon moves. (Hint hint)

Pocket Monster Researcher Archer July 25th, 2007 9:09 AM

its not really what they look like, their moves, stats etc which make them better than one another. its how the pokemon makes you feel. personaly i like palkia, i have both. but palkia appeals to me much more.

Shem July 26th, 2007 11:14 AM

I iave dialga and hes just like regigigas, hes just there to make the pokedex bigger

ravenfan4125 July 26th, 2007 12:33 PM

I like Palkia, he looks cooler to me, but i also like Dialga, but im getting Pokemon Pearl tomorrow morning :D yay! Diamond was a close chioce but Palkia just kinda caught my eye first/more.

What does it matter "who's" better, they're just pokemon, if they can both do lots of damage to a pokemon then i doesn't really matter.

Palkia is better, actually. Dialga is weak to fighting and ground, two very common types.

Palkia also has a max stat total that is 2 higher than Dialga's. :O

It makes no sense.
Dialga is NOT smexy or ownage. At least for no reason he is.

i agree, the last time i sorta checked, they are as good as each other. but in battle palkia will suffice as it has many anti steel type moves and is much faster. its true and its the most logical conclusion.

Palkia is faster, but to defeat Dialga, he must use Aura Sphere or Earth Power. Since Palkia is dragon/water, I don't anyone using those moves on it, normally will use Surf /Ice Beam / Spacial Rend / ???. Dialga is dragon/steel is more likely to use Roar of time / Flash Cannon / Ice beam / Aerial Ace or other. Palkia Spacial rend and ice beam attack only does normal dmg on Dialga, but Roar of time is the most powerful dragon attack 150pwr against Spacial rend 100pwr and Ice beam 95pwr. Considering the stab aditional power, Roar time achieves 225pwr againts 150pwr stabbed pwr of Spacial Rend. Palkia has higher sp. def then Dialga, but don't forget Roar of time is super effective on Palkia (225x2=450 pwr), spacial rend only causes normal dmg (150x1=150pwr). Final note, Dialga can easily pown Palkia in a single blow.

UltimatePIkachuFan August 4th, 2007 6:45 AM

I would have to say Dialga

DeathOfBlades August 8th, 2007 2:39 PM

Dude Dialgas roar sounds like its constepating

pm_41 August 8th, 2007 3:38 PM

Dialga

Dialga is resitant to Palkia's moves.

Palkia is weak against Dialga. (Dragon+Dragon=KO)

Pokefan2008 August 8th, 2007 3:39 PM

i just love palkia its the bomb

J-Rad August 8th, 2007 3:43 PM

both look awesome but I would say Dailga cause spacial rend might be better, but Dailga surpasses palkia in most stats.

Zazzeh August 8th, 2007 4:18 PM

Simply, I like Dialga cause my favorite color is Blue ^^. Though I wish i'd gotten Pearl because of Palkia's Spacial Rend move, that is the COOLEST(In my opinion lawlz :B).

RileyVace August 8th, 2007 4:44 PM

Just use Darkrai, he has Spacial Rend and Roar Of Time. He beats all.

And Giratina is the better of the 3 Space Time Dimension legendaries. You know Gira is gonna be the 3rd of the DS gen's mascot. Like Rayquaza was in Emerald.

Skelter August 8th, 2007 4:58 PM

mm...palkia, he only has one weakness and that's dragon. Dialga....i'm just not good with him......

Random August 8th, 2007 5:06 PM

i do like palkia more, but i don't have anything against dailga :P

Pocket Monster Researcher Archer August 13th, 2007 12:04 PM

palkia palkia palkia end ........

The Real AAA August 13th, 2007 12:17 PM

dude Palkia dies by 1 Grass Knot attack(that's how my Roserade killed them in PBR online)

Anyways Dialga could kill a Palkia by just 1 Roar of Time.Even if Palkia strikes first, Dialga could still survive a Special Rend attack

So I voted on Dialga!!

J.M. August 13th, 2007 2:35 PM

Has to be Diagla for multiple reasons... most of which have already been posted.

-May- August 14th, 2007 12:22 AM

Dialga Dialga Dialga Dialga
he seems co02oler and stronger than palkia ^^
beside .. I love the blue colour
^^

falconx August 14th, 2007 2:00 AM

OWNED
 
Palkia is faster than dialga in the game and can be thought focus punch which is a fighting move with a power of 150 and being steel type dialga takes double the damage which means power of 300 so he goes down first:P

Except Focus Punch only works if the user doesn't take any damage on the same turn you're trying to use it so if Dialga uses a damaging move that doesn't miss, Focus Punch is useless.

Eruption August 14th, 2007 3:08 AM

Dialga.. Time Over Space.

Xoo August 14th, 2007 5:15 AM

Dialga, I dunno why. He's just better. imo.

Gourmet Popcorn August 14th, 2007 10:52 AM

Definetely Dialga, he is a lot stronger than palkia.

iRaiza August 14th, 2007 10:53 AM

Dialga.

Diamonds > Pearls
Dialga is cooler aswell. Palkia is like "meh"

Even though our opinions in this thread have been very different, I completely agree with you. Most people also don't seem to have realized this thread is not about which one you like more, but about which one is stronger, meaning most people have made the decision for all the wrong reasons. x__x

The Empoleon King August 15th, 2007 5:36 AM

Palkia looks far better and is water and dragon what more can you ask for

Vavavoom ♣ August 15th, 2007 5:38 AM

Actually, I think that Dialga is my favorite. It's concept is amazing. ^^

Shiraishi August 15th, 2007 6:46 AM

Dialga is easily killed by a paraflinching togekiss while palkia can put up more of a fight. He can OHKO all of his fellow dragons except dialga with spacial rend. Also, roar of time is a horrible move. Palkia ftw.

Every1 votes for Dialga so listen here.

DIALGA HAS A CRY THAT GOES LIKE WHAA BABY CRY; THEN PALKIA HAS A SPACY;MANOUVRE THING.................. THEN 2ND: THE STATS ARE THE SAME; SO THATS UR OPTION.................DIALGA IS STEEL/DRAGON; MEANING THAT ITS TAKING ARCEUSS COMBO.

hope that helps :D

J_zero August 15th, 2007 10:34 AM

Most Ppl here say Dialga just because hes better-looking, But those ppl aren´t thinking technically, this is not about better looks, its about who is better in battle, Palkia wins of course, Due to its BETTER speed, BETTER special move, LESS Weakness, and Dialga´s Roar of time needs to recharge, Bie poor Dialga, besides a focus blast would KO Dialga, so obviously Palkia is better, In many forums ive been Most ppl Choose Palkia, and theyre right , this is the only forums, that is allucinating with lies, but hey, a voting is a voting right ;):cool:

Palkia hands down. They have the same sp.att, but palkia is faster.

Lordblood August 15th, 2007 4:38 PM

Well considering Dialga is my favorite Pokemon now, it would make sense to pick it over Palkia :).

Exactly. I want to hear something like "Dialga's So-so/os-os combo will OHKO Palkia" and things like that. Though I have no idea what a so-so or os-os is.

J.M. August 18th, 2007 9:36 AM

Because of having Lucario and Infernape on my team, I was forced to put my Staraptor in the PC to make room for Diagla. If I was on Pearl, then I could have ditched my Gyarados as Palkia is part water and kept my Staraptor.

Ah well, I'm now off to catch Azelf and Mespirit (already got Uxie)

DrDeath August 18th, 2007 9:43 AM

Palkia, Spacial rend is much better.

that has to be the response yet and i agree

-Jirachi- August 18th, 2007 12:24 PM

Ok this is a fun arguement who is the "better" well to ask which you like more to me is the same as asking who would win the fight soooooo:

First of all we have Dialga's Elements.
Steel/Dragon = 3 Super Effective types against it.

Now Palkia's Elements.
Water Dragon = 1 Super Effective type against it.

All fair and good Palkia wins the Effectiveness.....or does he? Now we gauge who is super effective against each other.

Palkia Vs Dialga = 1 Super Effective each, Dragon.

So that comes up a draw.

Next is "Full Power Stats" or simply who at lvl 100 has the higher degree of stats?

Dialga:
HP = 404
ATK = 372
DEF = 372
SP. ATK = 438
SP. DEF = 328
SPD = 306

Palkia:
HP = 384
ATK = 372
DEF = 328
SP. ATK = 438
SP. DEF = 372
SPD = 328

So From this we can see that Dialga has higher HP and DEF whereas Palkia has higher SPD and SP. DEF.

Now comes the "Legend Killer Moves" or simply put the movesets

Dialga:
Roar of Time: Damage 150 Acc 90 PP 5 Type Dragon
Thunder: Damage 120 Acc 70 PP 10 Type Electric
Draco Meteor: Damage 140 Acc 90 PP 5 Type Dragon
Giga Impact: Damage 150 Acc 90 PP 5 Type Normal

Palkia:
Spacial Rend: Damage 100 Acc 95 PP 5 Type Dragon
Thunder: Damage 120 Acc 70 PP 10 Type Electric
Giga Impact: Damage 150 Acc 90 PP 5 Type Normal
Draco Meteor: Damage 140 Acc 90 PP 5 Type Dragon

(NOTE: Both movesets are movesets i would use so bare with that)

So both Dialga and Palkia have been kitted out with a moveset. Palkia having one move difference to Dialga being Spacial Rend.

So here comes to tally:

Super Effectiveness = DRAW

Stats = for SPD and SP. DEF PALKIA, For HP and DEF DIALGA

Movesets = Overall Damage DIALGA, Overall Acc PALKIA, Overall PP DRAW Overall Super Effective Moves DRAW

So with that information lets take a look at how the fight may go.

A fight against Palkia and Dialga would start with Palkia making the first move with either Draco Meteor OR (because so many people like it) Spacial Rend. Dialga would retaliate with Draco Meteor OR Roar of Time (but chances of killing with Roar of Time are SLIM).

Second shots would be either the Draco Meteor or again Spacial Rend from Palkia. Now judging that he doesn't miss then he would most probably perform a kill shot there however if he missed then if Dialga did NOT perform Roar of Time the first go and did perform Draco Meteor then a Roar of Time would probably finish the match outright.

So both are very evenly matched but when it comes down to simple versatility of the movesets and due to the fact that i charge headfirst into battle with high powered moves i'd need HP so:

Dialga Wins! And therefore is my favourite :P

Smarties-chan August 18th, 2007 12:57 PM

Dragon/Steel only has 2 weaknesses. ._. Your movesets also aren't too great and comparing 2 Pokémon by seeing which one will do better in battle just doesn't work. Also, it's only possible to max out 2 stats so it doesn't work out as easily as you think.

Fire Eagle August 18th, 2007 1:05 PM

Palkia Is The Best But Dialga Is Steel-Dragon, Best Type Combination There Is.

Shiver August 18th, 2007 2:01 PM

My favourite would have to be Palkia, although I have Diamond, as Diagla looks terrible compared to Palkis, who looks sleek and smooth, like a true god.

4th_Hokage August 18th, 2007 5:19 PM

why do people think that just because you can send people to another dimension or into space it makes you stronger, read this:

palkia and dialga are fighting and palkia decides to send dialga to space before or during it dialga stops time and beats palkia up if that doesn't work he can always go back in time

palkia decides to rip space and destroy dialga

Dialga looks better IMO, but Palkia's signature move is waaay better than Dialga's. And it's slightly faster.

Shiraishi August 18th, 2007 5:46 PM

Dialga gets ripped apart by mewtwo(with aura sphere),groudon(If it survives a draco meteor)..A weakness to Earthquake is something you DO NOT want.

Meganium Lover August 18th, 2007 7:13 PM

Palkia for me, seeing as I have the Pearl Version. I like the looks of both Dialga and Palkia, of course, but I'm rather fond of lizards. XD And a Water/Dragon type is pretty cool when you think about it. So is Steel/Dragon, though, too. Hmm.

Whatever, I chose Palkia. XD;

I take that back my bad lol there is only 2 weaknesses, The movesets are set for power which is what i use legendaries for....going through the E4 fast to get money and comparing pokemon via the battle is something i do. This is my way of choice please don't pick fault with it. I don't mind people telling me where i have made errors but could you please not pick at my way of choosing that's just disrespectful.

Also i took the stats from Serebii.net so if they are wrong don't turn to me speak to Serebii.net.

..What Smarties was saying about the stats is that the stats you have are Dialga's/Palkia's stats WHEN MAXEDit is impossible to max out all stats because EVs and natures.

I can understand that but it could of been put in that context the way it was wrote i found to be a bit cruel. I know that my way of doing things has bugs and problems yes, I'm still working on it.
Just sometimes when things are said on a website to one person it may just seem like a comment but to another it may seem like a hurtful one.
