Palkia - How to Get and Location, Evolution, and Research Tasks
Palkia benefits most from the Modest Nature. The increase in Sp. Atk allows Palkia to better utilize its special offense. Since most of its attacks are special, it won't mind the drop in Attack.
While a speed increasing nature is often considered for battles in mainline Pokemon games, it doesn't play as big of a factor in Legends: Arceus due to every Pokemon's access to the Agile and Strong Styles. Make up for lower speed by planning around your turn order.
Agile and Strong Styles: How to Master Moves
Spacial Rend and Hydro Pump are the best STAB moves for Palkia with reliable power, decent accuracy, although with low PP. Water/Dragon coverage is only resisted by Empoleon, which Palkia can handle with Earth Power. It also offers good coverage by allowing it to hit bulky Steel-types.
Draco Meteor provides Palkia with a stronger Dragon-type move but it has the drawback of lowering its offensive stats. Try to leave this move as a finisher with strong style.
