Dialga OR Palkia

[Synthe]

This thread is to discuss...which is better Palkia or Dialga.
To me I say Dialga because he has a nice move pool and he is also faster. Both are dragon for there second type.

Which is more inportant....Time or Space.

Without time, everything will just be froze, we wouldn't even exist.
Now if you can controll time, you can basically do whatever you want.

I like Dialga better just because he looks cooler IMO, and I like time better than space.

 

[BladeRadio0]

Dialga. Better moves, Cooler look and he is the first dragon-steel type while palkia has the same types as the seadra chain evolution.

 

[Darkslash]

My critical hit monster says hi!

Spacial rend is a critical hit monster. But Dialga has a Dragon resistance becuase of Steel. That means that fighting types are going to have a field day.

EDIT: I dunno why but forgot about Roar of time. While it may be powerful enough to take down Palkia, Palkia maybe lucky enough to have enough HP left. PLUS if Palkia has Aura sphere, Palkia can do around 360 dmg(90x4) becuase Roar of time needs recharging. Plus becuase of how rediculously popular Lucario is i'm sure there are going to be alot of Aura sphere's around.

 

[Bowser King]

Dialga. He's cooler, his move looks cooler and he controls time which is awesome.

[Synthe]

Yeah....Dialga is Cool...and being part steel like Bowser King, has resistance.

And what, time is more important than space? I vote Palkia. Dialga is an ugly horse-thing with the voice of a cat being stepped on. Palkia is faster, unbelievable in Ubers Doubles with Kyogre, faster, and his head looks alot like a pingas, if you get that Dr. Robotnik joke.

EDIT: After reading this thread, I'm pretty sure I'm the only one here who knows ANYTHING about competitive Pokemon battling.

Dialga has a great type combo unlike Palkia, which we've seen before. [Kingdra, if anyone has forgotten.]

Sure Palkia is faster, but Dialga's got D and ROT[Roar of Time], not that Spacial Rend sucks.

Not true. I just pick Dialga because I think he's cool, and I don't think the thread creator took into consideration competitive battling.

 

[Commander Blizzard]

I prefer Dialga over Palkia, mostly becuase I like Dialga's appearance more than Palkia's and becuase I find it to be more useful than Palkia. Palkias still an awesome pokemon, however.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

For comparison, Dialga has two weaknesses, Fighting and Ground. Palkia has one, Dragon. Palkia is just as strong and faster than Dialga and gets STAB on water moves that get further empowered by Kyogre in Ubers(No Groudon would ever willingly switch into a Palkia) Dragon/Steel is a mixed bag of awesome. While Fighting isn't hugely popular in Ubers its still usually there for Blissey/Tyranitar/Dialga(lol) Ground isn't huge either but its still there from one of the highest attacking stats in Ubers(Groudon) Resistance to Dark/Ghost/Water and a neutrality to dragon is nice, and the immunity to Poison helps, but in terms of use Palkia has always been preferred due to the omnipresence of Kyogre in Ubers and its above average speed. However with the advent of Platinum moves, this may change in the future.

On a side note, Roar of Time sucks massive donkey balls.

I was going to say something, but then Pink Reaper came along and took the words right out of my mouth.

 

[zrky]

Dialga looks cooler, and has 13 resistances, I think im OK with that

 

[choknater]

Palkia with Torrent support is a freaking MONSTER. (Manaphy on the same team too... rain... omg...)

 

[whiterob]

Palkia looks like a dick grew arms, so I'm gonna have to pick Dialga on this one.

DUH! Of course Dialga weak to Fighting and Ground. You think I don't know that?

ROfT can be used if you know Dialga's gonna die trying to KO somebody. [Like Palkia?]

Just Sayin.......

 

[Lord Viper]

Dialga, see the Pokemon Movie. :D

That and he's basicly a killing machine most of the time. Roar of Time mostly kills Palkia in one hit... unless you have a weak Dialga or Palkia have a item that let it servive from a heavey attack like that, but that's just my point of view.

 

[urdailywater]

Mewtwo please.

Serious answer, Dialga. Palkia looks ********.

I still don't like either of 'em as much though as some of the earlier.

Especially Kyogre..

ROfT is a completely worthless move. 2 Dragon pulses are more powerful, plus you don't get locked into wasting a turn that will undoubtedly result in a set-up/switch in.

Palkia would KO Dialge, Palkia's faster.

Also, I just noticed that P-monster looks alot like a gladiator. That just bumped him up a few more notches. Groudon's still the best though.

 

[Synthe]

Naww...latios and latias

 

[Darkslash]

In the Anime Palkia seems more battle savy.. All of Dialga's attacks come from its mouth and Palkia has a Spacial Rend gun on its arm. I dunno but Palkia attacks look WAY cooler.

 

[sonofthesky]

Naww...latios and latias

I love you.

LOLZ, Dragon Pulse can't combine twice. I know what you were implying, but c'mon.

If we had 1 turn each, you would not kill me with 1 Dragon Pulse. ROfT would KO Palkia, given that accuracy is thrown out.

You would then switch in a Pokemon [Groudon as you love to mention], and then KO Dialga next turn.

Dialga already served its purpose KO'ing Palkia, so there's really no point in keeping it out in play.

In the same number of turns it takes to use ROfT, you could use 2 Dragon pulses, which would total to more damage.

A Focus Sash Plakia could survive the attack, and proceed to slam Dialga with 2 Aura Spheres. Seeing as how Palkia is faster, Palkia would win.

Your knowlage of Uber battling is poor, I see, if you think... Oh, never mind.

See, now was that so hard to explain?

I do admit that I have not experienced many UBER battles. [I don't know if the 10th Anniversary tourneys count, just thinking aloud here.]

I actually do wonder who would think of that besides you.

But you're right, my KNOWLEDGE is limited, so whatever.

Ha, I love it when n00bs try to make fun of me.

If you think a bunch of random kids going 'Hey man look at my awsome team! Rayquaza with Fly, Surf, Waterfall and Outrage! YEAAAH!' and using Groudons that know Solar Beam counts as ACTUAL Uber battling, you're a moron. Try using Shoddy battle to fight people who know the difference between EVs and Eevees.

Capitalizing on a spelling error, how cool of you.

 

[zrky]

for some reason I feel like im between normal player and knowledgeable. I mean I can keep up and agree with the likely approches like Palkia having more speed with focus sash and that stuff, but ill admit I didn't know what EVs were until I joined SWF. so I wont say anything bad about noobs, but teaching a rayquaza surf and waterfall IS STUPID, and an UBER battle isn't to hard to find, just go to an real N00b and ask for a battle
/rant with little point

 

[Lovely]

Palkia looks soo cute. ^_^

LOLZ!! Me too!

Yeah, let's teach Rayquaza some REAL moves instead of making it an HM slave!

 

[karthik_king]

I prefer Palkia.

A battle between them

Palkia used Aura Sphere Super Effective
Dialga uses roar of time super effective
Palkia holds on with focus sash
Palkia uses Aura Sphere Super Effective
Dialga Fainted

Or
Palkia uses Aura Sphere Super Effective Critical Hit
Dialga Fainted

One word.

DITTO!

Ha, just kidding. That's like making Feebas battle for ubers.

 

[karthik_king]

Yeah I am awesome

 

[ZeroFox]

I prefer Dialga to be quite honest.

 

[SSBB.Fay]

I would pick Dialga ^_^

 

[ShadowX718]

Dialga is 1337.
Palkia fails.

 

[Jimnymebob]

Palkia is the better Pokemon.

 

[Zook]

Dialga is a lying hypocrit from Portugal. He once killed a guy in Reno just to watch him die.

 

[aflyinglamppost]

Id say Dialga, he's blue, lol... yea, well. Time and space are both cool. Like Luxord and Xigbar. Anyways Dialga walkson four legs...

I'm not the only one that likes Palkia better! I'm so glad . Although I'm not a competitive at all with Pokemon, I kinda understand some things.
