Pokemon GO developers at Niantic have presented players with an opportunity to battle Origin Forme Dialga as a 5-star raid boss. Players may also encounter a Shiny Origin Forme Dialga by winning the Origin Forme Dialga raids. But winning against the monster is challenging; it possesses extremely powerful stats and a decisive move pool.

The legendary Origin Forme Dialga has the same Steel and Dragon-type attributes as the Standard Dialga. The difference is between their appearance, Pokemon GO Combat Power (CP), and stats. Origin Forme Dialga has a maximum CP of 4624, which increases notably as a 5-star raid boss. With increased prowess, players need to prepare powerful counters against it, which can be done by studying its weaknesses and resistances. That said, this guide explores the best counters and strategies to use against Origin Forme Dialga raids.
