Question about Dialga analysis

[Raikou]

This isn't getting answered in the ask a simple question thread so here you go.

Why is timid the suggested nature for the Dialga Choice Specs set? 306 speed isn't particularly fast and only lets him outrun non-CS Groudon, Ho-oh, and other Dialga, some of which don't always run speed ev's anyway. Kyogre almost always uses a CS so I didn't include him, and Palkia is usually a +spd nature.

Why not modest with 252 hp / 252 SA? This lets him live through an aura sphere from Specs Mewtwo or Palkia, and increases his odds against Kyogre and the Latis just a bit.

And if for some reason he needs his speed, why not modest with 252 speed / 252 SA?

Any input?

You've answered your own question. It lets him have a chance at outspeeding a Pokemon - Groudon - that could OHKO him before he gets a chance to do anything.

Don't make any more threads like this.

Stuff in the analyses are suggested sets. They are suggested for a reason. If you have the urge to do something different like use 8 more speed IVs or use Jolly instead of Adamant, by all means go ahead. No one is forcing you to use the set exactly as mentioned in the analysis.
