So I don't really like running a physical bulky dialga
so Instead of the bulk up set I'm going with
Dialga Image w/ Leftovers
Calm
EVs: HP 252 SD 252 DF 4
Iron Defense
Dragon Pulse
Aura Sphere/Fire Blast
Metal Burst

With Iron defense Dialga hits over 500 defense, after 1 turn of set up.
I feel Aura sphere would work better, as it hits Dialga, darkrai, Arceus, Heatran, Tyranitar harder
I'm not sure what to do with the last slot.

Dragon Pulse/Roar of time
Aura Sphere/Fire Blast/Flamethrower
Protect/Rest/Metal Burst

He looks mostly good. Just dont do Fire Blast; Flamethrower has better Accuracy and PP. And dont do Roar of Time either. After use, it lets the foe be able to switch out to an effective poke, or psuado-haze Dialga away. Also, doing Dragon Pulse two times in a row gives a total of 270, instead of Roar of Time's 225 (including STAB).

And for the last slot, dont do Protect; its only good for Toxi-Stalling or whatever. You can go with Rest to keep him alive longer, but risky. Or you can do Metal Burst and counter the foe's attacks, but make sure you know the foe WILL attack you.

Metal Burst sounds good I didn't think of it.
Also Roar of time would only have been used as a finishing move, and Fire blast is more reliable than I used to think but since this is a bulky set which means Dialga can afford to take its time

BTW can you guess what my new avatar is?

Roar of time is really bad, stick with dragon pulse and rest for the last slot. But iron defense is a pretty unique and good idea.
