I'm at the Arseus event and don't really know what to choose.

Which do you choose and why?

Which is the best when it comes to battle? :\

(NOTE:This is in Soul Silver, just in case you didn't know what forum section you are in...)

Well I've never had a Dialga before so I can't tell you if he is good.
but what I do have is a Palkia and Giratina and they are pretty good.
In looks I would pick Giratina but in power I would say Palkia.
but this is just my opinion and I don't know which one you prefer so I don't know....
but I would have to say Palkia.

Giratina. With it, you get the Griseous Orb, which can't be traded over from Platinum to Hg/SS. You can trade Lustrous/Adamant Orb's to my knowledge.

EDIT: Battle wise, each has it's own pros and cons. Palkia is the fastest between them, and outspeeds a fair bit in the Uber metagame. Giratina has a lot of bulk for a sweeper, and ghost immunity makes it the best offensive anti-spinner, not to mention it has priority (shadow sneak). Dialga, with it's Steel typing, makes a fantastic tank.

I might get Dialga b/c I have never had him, time travel is epic, and it seems to have the least amount of weaknesses...

Go with Giratina! It's really awesome, besides, Dialga isn't as good as either of the others.

Besides, I already did this event in HG, it was epic!

I say Dialga, but I've had experience with them all.

Giratina changes forme when equipped with Griseous orb, the others dont...

Dialga because he is also steel type which means dragon type is only normal effective on him.

Dialga's only weakness is ground, which can be intercepted via Ice Beam...

Palkia is fast and my first of the tiro...

Giratina changes forms...

Hmmm...

K, I am not going to get Palkia...

That just leaves Dialga and Giratina...

Both have great characteristics!

If only I could get both!

Palkia is fast. Dialga is a tank. Giratina is pretty much a mixture. Take your pick.

Well I don't like any of those three, but If I have to choose, I choose Dialga, because I like steel types.

Giratina, it's the only way to get the Griseous Orb in HGSS.
