Dialga is a dark-blue, {{wp|sauropod}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with some gray metallic portions and light blue stripes. It has a chest plate on its torso, which has a deep blue diamond-like crystal embedded in the center. Dialga has a fin-like structure on its back, three spines on the back of its neck, and a crest on its head, resembling a dinosaur. The crest somewhat resembles the shape of a sundial's rod. It also has two structures on the sides of its head that extend outward and resemble horns and fangs. It has three claws on each foot, of the same metallic look as its chest plate. Faint cracks exist across its body.

Faint cracks exist across its body. The fin-like structure on its back is shaped radiating outwards and can be used to focus the flow of time, as seen in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series|Mystery Dungeon series]]. Rather than walking on all fours, Dialga usually travels by levitation. | ||
Dialga has the power to control time; it can warp time by either speeding it up, slowing it down, reversing it, or stopping it altogether; it can also [[Time travel|travel through time]] to visit the past, present, and future. It also has the power to destroy and create time itself. As shown in the {{pkmn|anime}}, Dialga's temporal powers possess the ability to [[Devolution|devolve]] anything or anyone against their will: Pokémon, humans, and plants. It can even reverse these devolution effects. It is said that time started moving when Dialga was born and will continue flowing as long as Dialga's heart beats. | Dialga has the power to control time; it can warp time by either speeding it up, slowing it down, reversing it, or stopping it altogether; it can also [[Time travel|travel through time]] to visit the past, present, and future.

As Dialga primarily resides in a different [[dimension]], its behavior is nearly impossible to study. In the dimension where Origin Forme Dialga lives in, time is said to be constantly moving in different directions and speeds.<ref>[https://legends.arceus.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/dialga/ Dialga (Origin Forme) | Pokémon Legends: Arceus Official Website]</ref> It has been shown to be very protective of its home. It also tends to have violent conflicts with its counterpart Palkia. | ||
Dialga was revered as a deity in [[Sinnoh myths]]; in the past, it was worshipped by the [[Diamond Clan]], who referred to it as "almighty Sinnoh". Dialga is capable of [[Talking Pokémon|speaking through telepathy]], as seen when it communicates through the leader of the Diamond Clan, [[Adaman]]. Dialga and Palkia can control and spread the [[space-time distortion]]s caused by {{p|Giratina}}, which create [[alpha Pokémon]] and cause [[Noble Pokémon]] to go berserk. | Dialga was revered as a deity in [[Sinnoh myths]]; in the past, it was worshipped by the [[Diamond Clan]], who referred to it as "almighty Sinnoh".

;Primal Dialga | |||
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. | |||

====Major appearances==== | |||
=====[[Dialga (movie)]]===== | |||
Dialga made its physical debut in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', where it fought with {{mov|Palkia}} and {{OBP|Darkrai|M10}} in a {{pkmn|battle}} that nearly destroyed [[Alamos Town]]. It then briefly reappeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. During its trip back to its own dimension, Dialga ended up in the [[Reverse World]] and got attacked by {{mov|Giratina}}, who had been angered by Dialga and Palkia's fight in the previous movie. | |||
In ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', Dialga was shown for the first time with both the other members of the [[Pokémon of Myth]]. After being called by [[Sheena]] to stop a spatial distortion, it briefly fought with Giratina once more. Later, it returned to help Palkia and Giratina fight {{OBP|Arceus|M12}}. After being injured, it sent Sheena, {{Ash}}, and {{ashfr}} [[Time travel|back in time]] to fix Arceus's betrayal. | |||
=====Dialga (recurring)===== | |||
A Dialga appeared in ''[[JN089|The Gates of Warp!]]'' and ''[[JN090|Showdown at the Gates of Warp!]]'', where it was a target of [[Alternate World Team Rocket]], along with {{OBP|Palkia|recurring}}. Using a [[Red Chain]], alternate Team Rocket forced the two [[Legendary Pokémon]] to fight, creating time distortions that caused Pokémon to start [[Devolution|devolving]] and eventually revert into {{pkmn|Egg}}s, which Team Rocket would then steal and raise to be their own. The battle was finally stopped when Ash, {{an|Dawn}}, [[Goh]], [[Chloe]], and their alternate world counterparts prayed for {{p|Arceus}} to do so. Freed from the Red Chain, Dialga and Palkia then undid all the devolutions their battle had caused. | |||

After the Red Chain's destruction and Cyrus's exit, Dialga and Palkia rampaged, creating a danger for [[Sinnoh]]. However, the two were calmed down and sent away with the help of the {{an|lake guardians}}. | |||
In ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', Dialga was one of six Legendary Pokémon summoned and hypnotized by the shadow {{form|Hoopa|Hoopa Unbound}} as its reinforcements. It and its teammates engaged in a battle against the {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, and {{Shiny}} {{p|Rayquaza}} summoned to protect the real {{an|Hoopa}} in [[Dahara City]]. Eventually, after the shadow Hoopa was sealed in a [[Prison Bottle]], the hypnosis on Dialga and the other Legendary Pokémon was lifted, and Dialga departed for its home. | |||

===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}==== | |||
Dialga first appeared in ''[[PS410|Creeping Away from Cradily]]''. Dialga, along with Palkia, was summoned by [[Cyrus]] in order to create a new world. Cyrus used the Red Chains to force Dialga and Palkia to fight each other in order to distort time and space and create a portal that would swallow the existing world. {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} worked together with their Pokémon to free Dialga and Palkia from their controlled states. | |||
Later on, an accident with handling [[Charon]]'s machine caused Dialga, Palkia and Cyrus to be dragged into the portal before it closed completely. | |||
===={{MangaArc|Platinum}}==== | |||
It was revealed that {{p|Giratina}} imprisoned both Dialga and Palkia in the [[Distortion World]] before setting off into the current dimension to wreak havoc. Soon, Cyrus and Diamond met in the Distortion World, and agreed to free Dialga and Palkia using their Pokémon. Dialga and Palkia later resumed their struggle against Giratina in the Distortion World. When Charon decided to escape from the Distortion World on Giratina, Diamond got on Dialga and chased after him. Giratina was eventually defeated, with Dialga and Palkia forcing it back into the Distortion World for good before both returned to the Spear Pillar. | |||

Dialga was created in the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], along with Palkia and Giratina, by {{p|Arceus}}'s creation process, which was forced by [[Team Rocket]]'s {{tc|Executive}}s. Knowing that the creation process would threaten the [[Johto]] region, Team Rocket's true leader {{adv|Giovanni}} returned with [[Lance]] and [[Pryce]] to keep the Pokémon of Myth at bay while {{adv|Gold}} tried to calm Arceus down. Dialga was kept at bay by Pryce and his {{p|Swinub}}. Once Arceus was eventually becalmed, Dialga and Palkia departed from Johto and were spotted by [[Cynthia]]. | |||

[[File:SSBBSpearPillarDialga.png|thumb|250px|Dialga on the {{St|Spear Pillar}} stage in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]] | |||
Dialga appears as a stage Pokémon along with {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Cresselia}}, and the [[lake guardians]] on the stage {{St|Spear Pillar}}. It affects the stage much differently than that of its counterpart, such as slowing down time, and even going off its post to attack the players in the middle. It can also distort the stage, like Palkia, but only slightly and not as extreme, as well as shoot beams from various locations. | |||
====Trophy information==== | |||
''A Temporal Pokémon. This legendary Pokémon is talked about as a deity in fables passed down through generations in the Sinnoh region. Identifiable by the diamondlike crystal in the center of its chest, Dialga is said to have set time in motion at the moment of its birth. Its fearsome {{m|Roar of Time}} attack is so powerful that it must refrain from attacking on the next turn. It is Diamond's mascot.'' | |||
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]=== | |||
Dialga appears as a trophy. | |||
====Trophy information==== | |||
''The concept of time has always been one of the world's great mysteries, but Dialga might hold the answer. Legend has it that Dialga's birth caused time to begin moving! It's no surprise that the people of Sinnoh see this Pokémon as a deity. If you're ever running late, maybe you could ask Dialga to do you a favour and turn back the clock.'' | |||
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]=== | |||
[[File:SSBUSpearPillarDialga.png|thumb|250px|Dialga on the {{St|Spear Pillar}} stage in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]]] | |||
Dialga reprises its role as a stage hazard on the returning {{St|Spear Pillar}} stage. Spear Pillar now allows for any of the three Legendary Pokémon to appear each time, rather than being set for the whole match. Unlike in ''Brawl'', Cresselia is now signified by the stage's color tint not changing from its new default green, rather than using Dialga's blue. Dialga also appears as a {{sbw|Spirit}}. | |||
