Palkia or Dialga?

I personally prefer Palkia. Easier and more destructive to use than Dialga from the battling standpoint, aesthetically, it deserves more admiration and certainly looked a lot cooler in movie 10.

Space > time
 
Probably Dialga. The most people I met so far have bought Diamond and not Pearl so...
 
I prefer Palkia because I think he looks like a pink Mecha Godzilla! Apparently, Scott at VGCATS thought the same too! Hehe.
 
I'm split by this; on the one hand I prefer Palkia's aesthetics (minus the colour, which dialga wins) but conversly I prefer Dialga's powers (with regards to general power over time as opposed to ingame moves).

Hell, I can be Dull!
 
I prefer Palkia, which is why I got Pearl. It just looks cooler than Diagla, and I love it's PMD2 sprite.
 
Dialgas i Ko on revo by using super fang from my 'S' pachirisu then Palkia's Spacial rend. Always works...as long as opponens aren't Darkrai's xD
Dialga i like more but Palkia i use more cause he's awesome :p, Spacial rend not having to recharge is a bonus aswell even if weaker
 
I'd say Dialga, only for the typing, and the fact that I'm currently training him. I love Flamethrower :D It kills everything *BWHAHAHAHAH!*
 
I like Dialga`s design more. And after I played the Prince of Persia games I tend to like more creatures related to time. I also like Dialga`s gemstone and he`s bone-like wings. And blue is one of my favourite colours.
 
Reasons Dialga is better:
  • A completely unique type combination (Steel/Dragon)
  • Primal Dialga (this thing is simply bad ass)
  • The ability to manipulate time, which I think is better than the space manipulation.
  • Dialga has an astounding eleven resistances and one immunity, making it one of the most resistant Pokémon in existence.
  • Diamonds are forever and worth quite a bit more than pearls.
  • Since Dialga has been confirmed to be in the 12th movie, Dialga is the first legendary Pokémon to have 3 major roles in the movies. Dialga also has the most major movie appearances of any Pokémon besides Pikachu and Meowth.
  • I prefer the looks of Dialga over those of Palkia.
 
Rooler

Arceus. Arceus pwns.

Yes I know. Arceus wasn't a choice. But Arceus pwns.

For a real choice, I say Dialga

Palkia, as it has a better cry, Water is my favourite type, and its signature move is actually useful, unlike Dialga's Roar of Time, which is just a Dragon-type Hyper Beam.
 
Why are all these threads from like 2008 getting necro'd?

But I always preferred the fish-dragon Palkia over the dinosaur of time. And its cry oddly feels right.
