    i would go with diagla. can they both fly.
     
    Oh yay! Another Dialga Vs. Palkia Thread and endless flamers defending their versions Pokemon... JK.

    But I don't really know, I think They are both good, it depends on how the trainer raises 'em.
     
    Well for that we would have to look at both Dialga's and Palkia's Types, Nature Stats and moves. Now Dialga is a Steel/Dragon while Palkia is a Water/Dragon. Both are pretty equal on the element defensive due to the fact that Palkia's water moves are not very effective neither are Dialga's steel moves yet both pokemons Dragon moves are super effective.

    Now here come the Nature Stats.

    Dialga's best stat type is:
    HP:404
    Attack:372
    Defense:372
    Sp. Attack:438
    Sp. Defense:328
    Speed:306

    Palkia's best stat type is:
    HP:384
    Attack:372
    Defense:328
    Sp. Attack:438
    Sp. Defense:372
    Speed:328

    So we can see that Dialga has better HP and Defense while Palkia has better Special Defense and speed.

    Up to now both Dialga and Palkia are looking pretty equally matched but if we look at each pokemons strongest move set they could possibly have against each other it could decide who may just win the fight.

    Possible Dialga Moveset:

    Roar of Time
    ------------
    Attack Power: 150
    Accuracy: 90
    PP: 5
    Type: Dragon

    Dragon Pulse
    ------------
    Attack Power: 90
    Accuracy: 100
    PP: 10
    Type: Dragon

    Draco Meteor
    ------------
    Attack Power: 140
    Accuracy: 90
    PP: 5
    Type: Dragon

    Flash Cannon
    ------------
    Attack Power: 80
    Accuracy: 100
    PP: 10
    Type: Steel

    Possible Palkia Moveset:

    Spacial Rend
    ------------
    Attack Power: 100
    Accuracy: 95
    PP: 5
    Type: Dragon

    Fire Blast
    ----------
    Attack Power: 120
    Accuracy: 85
    PP: 5
    Type: Fire

    Flamethrower:
    -------------
    Attack Power: 90
    Accuracy: 100
    PP: 15
    Type: Fire

    Draco Meteor
    ------------
    Attack Power: 140
    Accuracy: 90
    PP: 5
    Type: Dragon

    (NOTE: Dialga's moveset is customized to take out Palkia as is Palkia's to Dialga.)

    Right so looking at the movesets Dialga has some really high powered moves his most powerful being Roar of Time holding a staggering 150 Attack Power, Whereas Palkia has a move set designed to work on Dialga's Steel to Fire weakness and with Fire Blast at hand with 120 Attack Power and a chance to burn could put Palkia down quickly.

    In the terms of a battle Palkia would go first unless Dialga was holding a item which increased his speed (Is there such a item?) In which case Palkia could possibly win, however if Dialga went first he would more likely KO Palkia.

    Or even if Palkia went first nine times out of ten one hit from Dialga's Roar of Time is enough to kill any dragon type pokemon outright so in conclusion i believe that Dialga would win overall

    (Sorry for the mass essay :P)
     
    ^Do note, however, that Roar of Time takes on time to recharge, and Spacial Rend doesn't.

    And I'll just move this to Strategies & Movesets.

    Moved~
     
    i think diagla looks better
     
    Dialga is stronger then Palkia physically but base stat distribution wise Palkia outranks Dialga.

    Looks? Come on you can do better than that. There's a bunch of competitions where each of them win...

    Appearance:
    Dialga. I mean who doesn't like spikey steel stuff?

    Call:
    Palkia. Sounds like a real dragon except at the end.

    Size and Weight:
    Dialga totally has Palkia beat. 17'09" vs. 13'09" and 1505.8 lbs. vs. 740.8 lbs. Dialga owns in that.

    Pokedex description:
    In my opinion, controlling space kills over controlling time. If you distort space, there is no reason to distort time. Palkia wins.

    Types:
    Dialga has a brand new type combination. Steel and Dragon. Killing it's two major weaknesses, Fire and Dragon.
    Palkia, on the other hand is Water and Dragon. Kills all Ice weaknesses. Dialga wins on that one.

    Rarity:
    In real life, Diamonds are worth more than Pearls. Dialga's bigger so you also own the giant diamond that sits on its chest plate, and if you have Palkia, you have a puny pearl. Dialga wins.

    General Living:
    Dialga doesn't have wings, it has to walk unlike Palkia who flies freely. Dialga stand on all fours, leaving it open to aerial attacks, Palkia stands on two legs, leaving it open for attack from behind. Dialga's diamond is in a bad place, one Giga Impact and that thing would be shattered. Palkia's has full protection laying on its shoulder.
    Palkia wins on that one.

    So that's my analization. In my opinion, use Dialga. He won one more category than Palkia xD
     
    First of all, it is way better to control time. You could just pause time and physically alter space. I think Dialga needs to win the Pokedex description xXscytherXx. Roar of Time is God. Besides, Dailga has resistances to:

    normal
    Water
    Electric
    Grass
    Poison
    Flying
    Psychic
    Bug
    Rock
    Ghost
    Dark
    Steel

    Plus, nothing can shadder daimonds
    lol
    Dailga wins
     
    Well time is a man made object believe it or not. It is a concept devoloped by humans to keep on track.

    Space on the other hand isn't so Palkia wins.

    Nothing but a diamond can cut another diamond. Shattering a diamond, though, is a completely different story.
    Edit- lawl. I actually agree, though. I have Pearl, but Dialga seems way more awesome.
     
    Yeah if we launched Dialga into the sun I dont think it will look very pretty.
     
    so im gussen most pepps here have diamond
     
    First, let me start by saying that this is the funniest thread i have seen yet. I guess i have to take back the Daimond no shattering comment. The only thing i was trying to say was that a Giga Impact could not shattter a daimond. Yes i do have daimond, but if i had Pearl, i would still say Dailga is better.
     
    Ohh pooey Arceus would kick both thier behinds. On the other hand they are obth nearly equal. It all depdns on the trainer I suppose and how you train them.

    The only reason your Palkia would loose is because your moveset = Fail

    Types:
    Dialga has a brand new type combination. Steel and Dragon. Killing it's two major weaknesses, Fire and Dragon.
    Palkia, on the other hand is Water and Dragon. Kills all Ice weaknesses. Dialga wins on that one.

    What about Dialga's fighting weakness? *cough* Aura Sphere (Can't Miss) *cough*

    But yeah, the only reason dialga wins, is because some people don't know how to battle properly.
     
    Is Fighting Dialga's only weakness? What about Ground?
     
    Well time is a man made object believe it or not. It is a concept devoloped by humans to keep on track.

    Space on the other hand isn't so Palkia wins.

    Time isn't a manmade object. Time always existed before we came along. When the day turns into night, year passes year, thats time. We just found a way to measure it.

    Yes, Dialgia is weak against ground.
     
    Ask yourself this question. Would you rather control space or time? I want a dinosaur, so, Dailga wins.

    by the way, this is pretty stupid
