PvP rankings (GO Battle League)

League	Tier	Rank	Score	Recommended moves	Typical build
Ultra League	C	#240 / 844	81.3	Dragon Breath · Roar Of Time · Iron Head	L22 · 7/14/14
Master League	S	#8 / 406	93.9	Dragon Breath · Roar Of Time · Iron Head Origin Dialga is a signature presence in Master League, strictly better than its regular forme. Iron Head is a weaker attack, so Dialga is more dependent on its nuke, Roar of Time, than Palkia is. Dialga's struggles against Zacian keep it from being as dominating as its predecessor.
