Most Pokémon<\/a> fans are now enjoying a big trip to the past, all thanks to the global release of the long-awaited Sinnoh remakes, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you are currently focused on trying to find all Pokémon to fill the entire Pokédex, it’s more than certain you will also have on your to-do list to catch the legendary Pokémon<\/a> on the cover, Dialga and Palkia, two powerful entities capable of controlling the time and space.<\/p>\n

So if you are looking to fight and catch them, you have come to the right place. Also, just in case, there are SPOILERS ahead.<\/p>\n

Catching Dialga and Palkia in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl<\/h2>\n

Since the original releases back in 2006, both Dialga and Palkia have become two of the most famous Pokémon of the fourth generation, not only because of their meme king status relishing about the “pressure” they exert, but because of their influence on Sinnoh.<\/p>\n

That’s why getting them will not be an easy task, since you have a long way to go before you have the opportunity to get one of the two on your adventure.<\/p>\n

Before going any further, you must have already beaten the first seven gyms of the game, in order to have access to the final part of the Team Galactic plot as well as the place where the final battle will take place.<\/p>\n

That said, once you manage to defeat Candice at the Snowpoint Gym, Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic, will intervene in Sinnoh by having captured the Lake Trio, Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit, so you must go to Veilstone City directly towards their hideout.<\/p>\n

When you get here, you must defeat all the Team Galactic grunts you met until you find Cyrus, who you will have to defeat to continue your adventure as well as obtain the highly valued Master Ball.<\/p>\n

With Cyrus defeated, you will now have to free the Lake Trio from a room guarded by Saturn, the 1st Commander of Team Galactic. Defeat him and then get out of the base.<\/p>\n

From here, we will recommend you to buy as many Ultra Balls as possible, since your next stop will be the imposing Mount Coronet, where you will have to reach the top after going through a maze full of Team Galactic soldiers.<\/p>\n

Once at the top, you must face the other two commanders, Mars and Jupiter, in a double battle, for which your rival will arrive as support to face them. However, once you manage to defeat them you will be witness a special cutscene, where Cyrus will summon either Dialga or Palkia, making his last shot to fulfil his desires.<\/p>\n

You will have to stop Cyrus again and defeat him a second time, at which time he will put up no resistance and after chatting with Professor Rowan, you will have the opportunity to catch the legendary Pokémon.<\/p>\n
