The main goal of everybody playing Pokemon Go is to collect as many Pokemon as they can, and sometimes for exercise and walking around. But collecting Pokemon sometimes takes time and dedication to study the Pokemon you want to capture and learn their weaknesses. This is especially for more powerful Pokemon like Dialga. So here is Dialga’s weakness in Pokemon Go.
Dialga’s Weakness in Pokemon Go
Dialga is a legendary Steel and Dragon-type with a Max CP of 4565, an Attack of 275, a Defense of 211, and a Stamina of 205. Dialga’s weaknesses are only Fighting and Ground-type, which you can use to deal up to 160% damage.
On the other hand, Dialga is resistant to Grass and Poison-type, up to 39.1% and 62.5% towards Bug, Electric, Flying, Normal, Psychic, Rock, Steel, and Water-type Pokemon. Dialga is one of the best Pokemon, as you can see, and capturing it requires a good collection of Fighting and Ground-type Pokemon.
One of the best counters you can use against Dialga is the Fighting-type Pokemon, Mankey. This Pokemon has a Max CP of 1317, an Attack of 148, a Defense of 82, and a Stamina of 120. Since Mankey doesn’t have a weakness against Steel and Dragon-type, it is a great choice. It is best to stick to Karate Chop and Cross Chop moveset with a DPS of 7.56.
Primeape can also be an excellent alternative to Mankey. This Pokemon has a Max CP of 2586, an Attack of 207, and a Defense of 138. Its best moveset is Counter and Cross Chop with a DPS of 11.01.

It is best to stick with Mud Shot and Earthquake moveset with Sandslash.
