The origin forms for Dialga and Palkia have qualities of Arceus in their designs. An interesting thing is that in the origin forms, they both get a ring around their body. Putting these together looks like Arceus' ring!

Thoughts on Dialga and Palkia's origin form? I thought they were weird but honestly they've grown on my a whole bunch. They feel raw and unstable and kinda eldritch, the idea that they're imitating Arceus for more power is also quiet cool. (I do wish they had more different stat changes though).
didnt like them at first but NOW????? i think they honestly kind of slap. fucked up beasties :)))))))) LOVE that theyre imitating arceus i fucking LOVE when they put warped mockeries of the divine in pokemon (mewtwo type null etc). still kinda think theyre weird though but in more of a complimentary way. like dialga looks like when a 3d model in a video game glitches out and gets weirdly elongated in places and palkia is The Wrong Horse Ever but it manages to work somehow????? tldr abhorred them at first glance but ur right their unstable eldritch beast swag has captivated me <3

Okay so THIS, THESEEE are alternate Palkia/Dialga origin formes.
The official ones are just like??? They're something alright. But my least favourite thing about them is how far they stray from what was already established in Giratina's origin form. They're massive, hyperdetailed horse things that look more like Arceus fusion formes than anything. So, I want you to picture a world were Dialga and Palkia's origin formes were released alongside Giratina's back in 2009.
Giratina's origin form is serpentine, possibly snakelike, but ultimately a strange, mysterious creature as opposed to a typical animal. Origin Palkia and Dialga continue this trend, being based on an oyster and a snail respectively.
Most people are confused by Palkia's typing upon seeing its altered forme, but its origin forme makes things clearer. It better resembles an oyster, with its wings and torso extended into a clam shape and a pearl in its center, signifying the center of the universe. Being an oyster is a metaphor for spatiality, as it wraps itself around all that is known. Its fins and neck broaden to resemble the wings of a rocket ship, which is also a nod to the spatial element of this pokemon.
On the other hand, Dialga has elements of the scaly-foot snail (a snail which develops defensive scales over its skin like metal armor). Being a snail is a metaphor for time slowing down and everlasting wisdom. Its back legs are replaced by said scales, albeit more elegant and cape-like. Details on its chest, sail and head resemble a snail shell, with a large diamond placed on each side of its head signifying its intelligence. Its sail, head, top horns and bib make a total of twelve points to match the twelve points of a clock, while its two large front legs point at the edges and resemble the hands of a clock.
Both formes fit right in with Origin Giratina and the three live happily ever after.

”Challenging the Lord of Time“
I got started on this months ago and had only been able to work on it little by little until I finally got around to finishing it last April. This was based on a post-game quest where Adaman asks to battle Origin Forme Dialga (I fought him during sunset). Needless to say, I had to draw it and give it a more epic vibe.
I have a Palkia-Irida version planned but it will be awhile.
PLEASE DO NOT REPOST! REBLOG ONLY!
