this... isn't much better. Whatever, i'll do both.
Primal Dialga is the central antagonist of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2. With the collapse of Temporal Tower and time itself, Dialga too started going insane. In the collapsed future, it is a mindless yet unstoppable dictator. The only solution was to fight it in the present, where it wasn't completely corrupted.
Primal Dialga is one of the larger bosses in the Smash series, comparable to Ganon. It has no weakspot, but has a little more HP than most bosses. It's fought on a typical boss arena, with no platforms and walk offs. Dialga can walk around and such. The background has the time gear holder in the background.
Primal Dialga's Moveset consists of...
Stomp: A very basic move, where Dialga just slams one of it's front legs down. Average damage, low range, and mildly slow.
Metal Claw: Primal Dialga lifts one of it's claws and swings it forward. It deals good damage and has super armor, but is slow
Dragon Claw: Once again, Primal Dialga lifts one of his claws and swings it forward. It deals more damage and is faster than the metal counterpart, but he is not invulnerable (he actually takes 1.3x damage during this attack.
Ancient Power: The Gem on Dialga's chest starts glowing. Rocks float on screen, which are thrown one-by-one towards the player, basically a weaker version of Snake's final smash. The rocks can be pocketed or reflected.
Dragon Pulse: Dialga lowers it's head for about a second, then dramatically raises it, sending a shock-wave out. It's very powerful, but only damages grounded opponents.
Hyper Beam: Dialga fires a beam from it's mouth, very similar to one of Ganon's attacks.
Earth Power: Dialga hops in place, sending a grounding shock-wave out. This buries all grounded opponents for a while, but does nothing to opponents in the air.
Dragon Tail: Dialga uses it's tail as a club, simmilar to Mewtwo's forward tilt. This does fantastic horizontal damage, so to avoid it you must jump very high or get on the other side of Dialga (it's pretty slow, so you have time)
When Dialga gets to 40% of his HP, he roars and the sky turns red and thundery. his old attacks have their damage increased by 1.15%, and two new moves are added to the selection
Draco Meteor: Five meteors rain from the sky. The order is two at the far edges, two in the middle-ish, and one in the very center. The only way to survive the attack without taking massive damage is to get the pattern right.
Roar of Time: Primal Dialga roars very loudly. This attack is simmilar to Off Waves, where you must spotdodge to avoid being hit. This attack is far more generous than the Off Waves, however. If you are hit by the attack, you take huge damage and have the effects of the timer item for awhile.
When you defeat Primal Dialga, he crumbles to the ground, where it reverts to it's regular color scheme. The sky clears back up to what it was at the first phase.
How To Encounter:
World of Light: the Destroyed Future is a new sub-area in the Dark Realm. It acts like other realms, with plenty of spirits to battle. Games that have connections to time travel take up most of the spirit list, with spirits like Grima, Shroob, and Classic Sonic showing up. There are also PMD based spirits, like Dusknoir, Espur, and Wigglytuff.
Classic Mode: Like the other bosses, Primal Dialga is a boss in a few classic modes. The veterans that it replaces the bosses of are
,
,
(as they either are or are related to PMD starters),
(his classic mode relates to fighting dark characters, which definitely applies to PD),
and
(in paralell to Grima). Some newcomers that could fight him are Grovyle (... do I need to explain this one?) and Sans (Primal Dialga was created by the corruption of time, something Sans tried to stop in the Genocide route). The default song is a new remix of
Dialga's Fight to the Finish, but the Awakening characters use the
new ID Purpose remix, and Sans uses
Megalovania.
