Origin Forme Dialga is a dual Steel- and Dragon-type monster in the game. Therefore, it is automatically weak to Fighting- and Ground-type moves. While multiple counters can learn these attacks to inflict damage on this legend in raids, only some can do that and emerge victorious.

Trainers are bounded by time since the 5-star raids featuring Origin Forme Dialga must be completed in 300 seconds. According to Pokebattlers, its best counters are Mega Lucario, Primal Groudon, Shadow Groudon, Lucario, Terrakion, and Shadow Excadrill. Yet, all of these forces take more than 300 seconds in extreme conditions to solo defeat Origin Forme Dialga in Pokemon GO.

As a result, you must utilize the effect of the Weather Boost to make impossible tasks possible. The Weather Boost effect can increase the power of Origin Forme Dialga in Snow and Cloudy weather. When this happens, given the difficulty, it becomes extremely challenging to take down this 5-star Raid Boss.

Now, the only strategy that can work for you is when you possess counters like Mega Lucario in your team and use them in the right weather. Therefore, you must strike such raid battles happening in a suitable environment to solo defeat Origin Forme Dialga in Pokemon GO.
