Shoots off the indigo beam
Fins on backside extend
Diamond glows
The user shoots a beam of energy from its mouth capable of distorting time.
Dialga's eyes glow orange and the diamond on its chest glows blue. The fins behind it grow larger and Dialga opens its mouth, an indigo ball forming in front of it. It then fires an indigo beam from the ball at the opponent. After the attack has been fired, the fins on its back shrink back to normal size.
