Dialga + Item Duplication ~ help!

i'm in front of dialga in my diamond but don't want to just catch it because i'd rather get a specific nature + iv set that's actually good.

any suggestions for dialga nature? also, what are the needed stats for dialga; i.e. atk, spatk, def, speed, etc. etc. - so i know what a good iv spread would be.

i don't really want to waste my master ball though, and i heard about an item duplication glitch involving ditto..? if this were true, i could duplicate the master ball which would help a lot.

so yeah. questions I need answered:
1.good dialga nature? needed dialga stats?
2.how can I do the item duplication? is it JPN only or is it possible in the US..?
 
I guess Modest is the best nature for Dialga, but +Speed isn't half bad either.

Pretty much all the known glitches for D/P are for first-release JAP games only.
 
Well, i spent all day trying to get a good Dialga. My original plan was to get a modest one, but after 5 modests without a SPA IV over 10, I decided to include timids as well.

I ended up with a timid Dialga with a 30 SPA and 30 speed IV, and the rest aren't too shabby either. Took me about 2 hours altogether.

30spa/30spd, nice. i guess i'll go for modest as first priority since most people tell me it's the best; if it takes way too long i'll include timid like you said.

so yeah, just in case; there isn't an item duping glitch in english D/P, correct?

also, does anyone else think that palkia > dialga? i think palkia's signature move is amazing as well as the awesome kyogre synergy. anyone agree? :P
 
What a coicidence; I also am in front of Dialga, resetting for a good nature.

I've decided to go with Modest, and nothing less. I'm not really too worried about IV's though. If I was picky about IVs I'd be resetting for days, with my bad luck and all. I've resetted through at least 30 without catching a Modest one.

Though if you are a picky person, 20+ in Sp.Att and Speed and 15+ in everything else should be good enough.

EDIT: Yes, Palkia seems much more appealing to me. Which is why I have my Pearl version gathering dust until I'm ready to find one with Modest/25+ IVs in each stat x(
 
Adamant or Brave isn't too bad for Dialga either. Bulk Up/Thunder/Dragon Claw/Earthqauke would work pretty well in ubers, imo. It has nice SAtk, I just don't like how Dialga has no way to raise that outside of Choice Glasses and maybe Diamond Orb. =/
 
I heard that Impish or other defense boosting natures were the best because of bulk-up, but whatever. I'd be really happy if I got a 30 spa/30 speed Timid one like the poster a few guys above me.
 
The set I posted above is a mixed sweeper. Why would you raise a defensive stat on a mixed sweeper? If you're trying to wall with some sort of Rest/STalk/Bulk Up/Dragon Claw moveset, I think Careful would be a bit better. You're already raising Defense with Bulk Up, anyways.
 
With 31 IVs in every stat, these are Dialga’s....

Beneficial Nature Max Stats
HP: 165
Attack: 145
Defense: 145
Special Attack: 176
Special Defense: 124
Speed: 114

Neutral Nature Max Stats
HP: 165
Attack: 132
Defense: 132
Special Attack: 160
Special Defense: 113
Speed: 104

Hindering Nature Max Stats
HP: 165
Attack: 118
Defense: 118
Special Attack: 144
Special Defense: 101
Speed: 93

Hope this helps when initially looking at stats. That way you can chuck it if some of the stats you're looking for just plain suck, rather than going through the trouble of checking IVs.
 
Minister2, that is going to be VERY helpful when I soft reset for a shiny Dialga with a good nature (Sychronize SRing, ftw). Thanks for those stats.
 
Bah, I just caught a Bold one with decent IVs:

HP: 11-12
Att: 26-30
Def: 26-28
Sp.A: 30-31
Sp.D: 20-21
Speed: 18-19

I'll probably never use it, but whatever.
 
is Dialga supposed be hard to catch? i plain and simple just chuck a premium ball at it and was caught. either way it was a sassy nature so i reeseted it.
 
sorry, i'm lost here. what do you mean by synchronize SRing??
Putting a Pokemon that has Synchronize and a specific nature at the front of your party so that the Pokemon you are soft resetting for has a higher chance of having the same nature as the Pokemon with Synchronize.
