Dialga can change between its standard form and its Origin Forme.
Dialga can change between its standard form and its Origin Forme.


Said to be the Pokémon's true form, Dialga's Origin Forme is drastically different from the usual sauropod-like look of its other forme, being a hybrid between it, a dragon, and a [[wikipedia:Centaur|centaur]], while also resembling its creator, {{p|Arceus}}. The back legs of Dialga become unguligrade in shape and have pointed tips instead of feet. The front legs are noticeably larger, with three distinct rhomboid claws on the underside. Further up, Dialga's knees have rectangular, long, and thin protrusions. Its chest plate is gone; however, it has a similar polygonal shape in its place. On Dialga's neck is a large shape jutting out towards the front, along with two pairs of protrusions on either side, the upper pair being larger and resembling panels or wings. Inside this large shape and wing-like protrusions are deep blue diamond-like crystals, embedded into diamond-shaped grooves. The three spines located on the back of the neck are longer and sharper. Dialga's head has two thin arrow-shaped horns extending towards the top and back of its head, along with longer fang-like horns connected to a plate mask covering its lower jaw, which can shift in angle to reveal the mouth. The plate mask also partly covers the arrow-shaped horns on their sides. Around Dialga's abdomen is a cross made of four arrow shapes attached to a small wheel, reminiscent of Arceus's cross-wheel. The fin-like plate on Dialga's posterior has a star-shaped layer on top of it. The tail is much shorter and crystal-shaped. Overall, Dialga's entire body becomes larger and nearly completely dark blue. The crest, arrow-shaped horns, knee protrusions, and abdomen cross are light blue, while the tips of Dialga's fin-like plate and feet are dark gray.

Dialga is at its full power when in the Origin Forme and is supposedly, permanently in it while in its home dimension. Dialga's transformation into its Origin Forme is triggered by a radiant light; it can also be invoked using the [[Adamant Crystal]]. Origin Forme Dialga can unleash meteors and shockwaves, while its {{m|Roar of Time}} technique can be charged into a stronger version of itself as seen in its boss battle in {{g|Legends: Arceus}}. The crystals and light blue accents on Dialga's body glow brightly when it uses its powers.

A unique {{pkmn2|variant}} of Dialga, called [[Primal Dialga]] resembles a normal Dialga with a darkened color. The main body is colored dark blue. The center diamond-like crystal is colored dark orange. The lines in its body are also orange.

Primal Dialga cannot control time due to it being tampered with. It acts much more agressive than Dialga normally it. It can still use its time abilites to some extent. It can also prevent others from time traveling, even cancelling out {{p|Celebi}}'s time powers.
