Dialga is an excellent pick on Trick Room teams due to its blend of low Speed, sky-high Special Attack, high Base Power moves, and ability to set Trick Room for itself. Draco Meteor does huge damage to Pokemon like Palkia-O and Kyurem-W, while also activating Dialga's Eject Pack, allowing it to bring in a threatening teammate like Ursaluna or Hoopa-U. Earth Power gives Dialga coverage to hit Steel-types like non-Air Balloon Gholdengo, opposing Dialga, and Magearna. Trick Room allows Dialga to outspeed almost every opposing Pokemon while also providing support to teammates like Solgaleo and Kingambit. Eject Pack allows Dialga to switch out when it drops its own stats with Draco Meteor, which lets it bring a teammate like Kingambit in safely. Tera Flying is used so Dialga can flip its only two weaknesses, Fighting and Ground, to a resistance and an immunity, making it much better against Zamazenta-C, Great Tusk, and Landorus, allowing it to set up Trick Room in front of these threats. Dialga sets Trick Room, making it a natural ally to Pokemon like Ursaluna, Kingambit, and Hoopa-U, which it can wallbreak alongside. As a Trick Room setter, it struggles with Pokemon like Taunt Arceus formes and phazers like Dialga, Giratina, and bulky Arceus formes. This means it pairs well with Pokemon like Ursaluna and Hoopa-U, which can break through these obstacles with sheer power, or Fairy-types like Magearna and Zacian, which are immune to Dragon Tail. Other Trick Room setters Dialga is commonly paired with, like Solgaleo and Hatterene, are great partners too, as they can set Trick Room for it, and Hatterene is especially good at this due to being immune to Taunt and phazing.
