Who is better, palkia or dialga?

Question

is palkia stronger then dialga or the other way around?

Answer 1

for me it is definitely dialga judging by weakness dialga is better.

Answer 2

its plakia because it has only one weakness dragon since palkia is part water it can learn ice beam which is very strong against dragons and most dragons types have dual types such as flying dragon,ground dragon.

Answer 3

It is simply a matter of preference.  They have very similar stats and similar moves that are learnt or can be taught. However, I prefer Palkia as it only has one very rare type weakness (dragon), whereas Dialga has several.  Here are stats and the moves that are learnt.

Answer 4

In Uber Battles (Palkia is Uber), Palkia is generally better as it has STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) Surf, as Surf is Water type and so is Palkia. The power of Surf, rather than 95, is now 270 (if benefiting from RAIN by Kyogre), and 135 without RAIN.

Dialga is generally more of a tank than a sweeper. Even though it has so many resistances, Palkia's faster and definitely is better at sweeping. Lugia is much much better at tanking than Dialga due to its massive HP and both defenses.

However, if you're using Palkia, you generally MUST use Kyogre. Kyogre is also one of the strongest Pokemon in game. A full power, full HP WATER SPOUT in RAIN will have power of 450, stacking on its massive Special Attack (Kyogre must be Modest nature, and must have full EV in special attack by killing 126 Roselias). At that point, Kyogre's water spout at full HP has power of 906. If a Choice Specs is given to Kyogre, it has power of 1359. 1359 powered Water Spout... That kills A LOT OF THINGS (other than super tanks like Blissey, Lugia, Giratina and Deoxys-D and Mantine are the only 5 pokemon that can stand that blast).
