Shadow Dialga: Master League's Time Lord
what's actually worth your time / candy
Trainers, prepare for an epic challenge! Shadow Dialga is appearing in five-star Shadow Raids from June 2nd to June 30th, 2026. This Steel/Dragon-type powerhouse is a must-have for serious competitors, especially in the Master League. Don't miss your chance to catch one of the strongest mons in the game!
Shadow Dialga holds a formidable PvP rank of #8 in the Master League. Its unique Steel/Dragon typing gives it resistances to many common threats while its high attack stat (275) ensures it hits hard. Investing in a strong Shadow Dialga is a game-changer for your ML team.
Shadow Dialga is weak to Fighting and Ground-type attacks. Assemble a team with these top-tier counters to take it down efficiently: Fighting-types like Mega Lucario, Mega Blaziken, and Crowned Shield Zamazenta. For Ground-type power, deploy Primal Groudon, Mega Garchomp, and Mega Excadrill.
Catching a perfect IV Shadow Dialga is key. For a regular raid catch, the hundo CP is 2307. If it's weather-boosted (windy or snowy), aim for 2884 CP. While not available in the wild or research for this event, knowing the perfect CPs ensures you don't miss a top-tier mon.
Shadow Dialga is a significant investment for any trainer looking to dominate the Master League or boost their raid damage. Focus on gathering enough trainers for these challenging Shadow Raids and prioritize catching high IV specimens. Use Hundo Hunter to quickly check IVs and ensure you're powering up the best possible mons.
