How to Get Dialga

Choose Diamond Clan in the Main Story

Hisui Region Clans
Diamond Clan	Pearl Clan

Near the end of the game, you'll get a choice between the two clans of the Region: the Diamond Clan and Pearl Clan. Your choice between the two clans will dictate which Pokemon you'll be facing as the Final Boss.

By choosing the Diamond Clan, you will fight alongside Dialga and face both the Origin and Standard Form of Palkia, a legendary Water and Dragon type Pokemon.

Should You Choose Adaman or Irida? Diamond or Pearl Clan Choice

The Diamond Clan's Treasue Steps

Dialga vs Origin Dialga

Differences Between Dialga and Origin Dialga

	Dialga	Dialga (Origin Forme)
Roar of Time	Power: 120 Accuracy: 90	Power: 140 Accuracy: 75
Base Attack Stat	120	100
Base Sp. Def Stat	100	120

Dialga is recommended for a more reliable Roar of Time

While Roar of Time gets a +20 increase in Power when Dialga is in its Origin Forme, the drop to 75 Accuracy can be really detrimental, especially since it only has 5 PP.

Despite the better bulk that Dialga will gain, we still recommend sticking with the standard Dialga.
