dialga if i remeber correctly diamond is was stronger than a pearl and also in the movie don't remember which movie but dialga was winning.

the worst legendarie
s o
f the g
ame.
 
I don't really care for either of them.

But if I had to choose it would be Palkia because he looks more beastly than Dialga, the Dog from Space

Wow, must you lie about this? a dog from space? PALKIA IS FROM SPACE SMART ONE!!! AND PALKIA IS THE ANNOYING HAZARD WASTE FROM SPACE THAT NEEDS TO BE THROWN OUT!!! DIALGA ROCKS!!!

Dude, no need to freak the heck out. It's an opinion. Jeezus.
Besides, Palkia is 1000x better.
 
Yeah, Yeah, and Palkia the 'Pink' guy, I agree.

C'mon guys! Dialga and Palkia are the same. Dialga could take Palkia to pre-birth. Palkia controls space, not bodies, but Palkia can also send Dialga into a reverse dimension where time doesn't flow, and Dialga is powerless there... Mew is in responsibility of bodies.

Technically, Primal Dialga can be really a threat to space and time. Space needs time to work properly, but Time doesn't needs space to work properly. SpaceTime work individually, and you saw the Planet's Paralysis in Mystery Dungeon. It was a helpless space really.

And as someone said before, the the two of them (escpecially arceus) are probably the worst legendaries ever. Their design just isn't that appealing at all, someone tried to hard when drawing them up.

Proven: Dialga is better!
Battle: Palkia start (higher speed stat) Palkia used Spacial Reign
Dialga used Roar of time (it's super effective)
Palkia has been knocked out.
Dialga wins
Common sense: Dialga controls time, Palkia controls space: Palkia sends a meteor to destroy Dialga, Dialga stops time and destroys Palkia and the meteor as they are helpless.
:O
I just lost 5 I.Q points from that. This shows how much the anime corrupts common metagame knowledge. I'm sorry, but how can you even play the game thinking it goes like this?
I highly doubt that Dialga would be able to take Palkia out with one hit, even with a roar of time. Roar of time is an awful move, that's why none of the movesets in smogon mention it. But look at spacial rend. 5 out of it's 8 movesets include the move spacial rend because it is just great. An accuracy that barely misses and high critical hit ratio can spell a lot of trouble, even when not supported by stat boosters. but it really depends on how you use them. Dialga can be a great physical tank, while Palkia can do the same for special tanks. The type of Dialga isn't always an advantage, since Earthquake(and Earth power which palkia can learn) is quite possibly the most used move in the whole game, and since Aura sphere(among other fighting moves) is fairly common as well. Palkia, on the other hand, only has one weakness, and that is dragon. However, it is protected fairly well against those, since it has both spacial rend and a plethora of ice moves, one of which is ice beam.

Long story short, just try to make a good moveset based around Roar of time. See where that god awful move takes you. The point of roar of time is that it is supposed to be a finishing move, not a starting move. If you ever try that, you will have a dead dialga on your hands.


But lets use your logic. Palkia is faster, we know that. Well, palkia can just crush dialga into a singularity. No more dialga :3/walloftext

meh

competitively speaking,

Dialga with a Positive SpA nature and 252 SpA EV's does a minimum of 142.99 damage to a 252 SpD Palkia with a positive SpD Nature.

So Roar of Time would finish palkia off.

While Spacial Rend does a MAXIMUM of 94.74% to a 0 SpD/4 HP dialga with a Positive Nature.

So basically,even with 1 round of stealth rock,theres a very good chance dialga survives the Spacial Rend[unless it crits].

But I still like Palkia better.
lol

Roar of Time could easily OHKO Palkia, even if Dialga isn't EVed. Smogon's movesets aren't definitive, either; just because Smogon says so, doesn't mean it's the best moveset for a Pokémon (though it usually is).
Palkia can beat Dialga in a battle, if it has a specific moveset... Most people would just switch Palkia out, though.

Yes it can, some people would say Palkia's better because they feel sorry for that *** ** * *****, also, because they would hack the game and make a level 4 Palkia defeat Dialga with Tackle (LMAO), or even make a Lv 50 Dialga go against a Lv 100 Palkia with full EV!!! WTF is wrong with these people, give up, Dialga is better than Palkia!

That is not true. This is the battles worth mentioning below.

Batting - Dialga wins obviously. (Except if it was trained horribly)
Looks - It varies depending what you think looks cool. (For Me Palkia)
Coolness - It varies depending what you think is cool. (For Me Dialga)

So Dialga wins for me but Palkia may win for someone else.

So you should be quiet. Just because you think one is better than the other, doesn't mean it is the best. You're not the supreme overlord and can say anything you want and make it true.

You can't just say. Dialga is better than Palkia. final answer.

That's just plain stupid. It's an opinion obviously.

Alright then, I was just wondering since my wifi isn't working at all.*kicks*
But are you counting that the Palkia may be EV'd defensively?
But I still stand by my opinion. Roar of time is a terrible starting move, especially compared to the almighty spacial rend.
I know that smogon isn't perfect, but it's the closest thing I can find when checking movesets.

Why? Because you said so? It matters too much on the circumstances. And your logic is "palkia has to have a huge advantage/ have lots of luck to beat dialga" from what I'm hearing. I highly doubt that, because, like I said before, it depends on circumstances. But forget about Palkia, I have a bias towards the great Giratina 0rigin forme.

WTF is wrong with these people, give up, Dialga is better than Palkia!
And I'll give no logical reason to prove or even support my point of view. MWAHAHA!!!

(Red) I know, I did the battles, so Dialga is better!
(blue) No it doesn't allways, but in this case it does! But I'm not an overlord still.
(green) Finaly you say something smart.

I crossed out everything that should not have been written down.

Then you're Dialga obviously had different natures from Palkia. :)

No it doesn't

And I always say something smart. You're just too /not smart/ to realize it.






Also, you shouldn't have even made this board. This is what you did:

Hey! Do you like Dialga or Palkia better ? I love Dialga!

Poster 1: Dialga because it can ohko etc.

Poster 2: Yea what Poster 1 said

etc.

Poster 7: Palkia! Because bla bla bla.

You: OMG WHATS WRONG WITH YOU LIKING PLAKIA. YOU NUB. DIALGA IS CLEARLY BETTER AND CAN BEAT UP PALKIA IN ONE TURN.


If you're not willing to accept other people's oppinion, you shouldn't have made this board to flame Palkia lovers.


thank you for reading

Har D har, that was quite possibly the stupidest thing you did. You could at least give a detailed definition as to why Dialga is better, other than "Dialga just pwns because I ses so!!11!one," but then again, I really doubt any fanboy would be as cruel as to even consider their pokemon doesn't pwn as much as they think.
I also find it funny that he finally says something smart when it precedes his "stupid" definitions. In this case, you are "right" because Dialga can fire his lazor! And honestly, if you can actually do so good with your dialga, then you should find better players to fight. I bet you didn't even read my message. Whatever, if you won't listen, then there is no point in talking to someone as narrow minded as you.They are both great pokemon when used in the right situations.

Now please, educate me with real knowledge and tell me how you can destroy so much Palkia with your ultimate move. You are aware that Roar of time wastes a turn hopefully.

I like them both. I don't care what anyone says.
 
palkia is faster and can know some pretty awesome moves (my palkia know flamethrower), but dialga is stronger and only 3 types are supereffective agains him (fire, ground, and fight). so they're pretty equal
