Trading Cards

Although these could fit in the Flat Items section, Dialga now has quite a few of these cards, so I have moved them to their own page.

Japanese Cards
American Cards
Boxed Sets and Other Items

Japanese Releases:

My goal is to get one of every Japanese card released. These are my focus since they have more unique cards than the American releases.

This is part of the special 12th movie card set featuring Pokemon with their trainers. Callyfin managed to get a spare of this Dialga, and kindly traded it to me!

This card is part of a Dialga-centric Diamond collection set (which I still need to pick up). It matches the art on the US version of the Diamond and Pearl set.

Mewtwo Collection Pack Promo

From a set of 12 cards, including a Mewtwo Lv. X. I managed to grab this one singly, though!

With the 11th movie new card set, came new booster packs. And with a purchase of a few of those packs, you could get a promo card! I chose this one, of course.

One of two promos in an 11th movie starter deck set, the other being a nifty origin form Giratina promo.

It's hard to choose, but this is one of my favorite Dialga cards (and images in general). It fits neatly with the 11th movie itself, and the art is just really pretty ^_^

Pokemon Dialga Galactic Conquest Level X

A beautiful card that came out poorly with my scanner. ^_^;

I was really surprised to find this promo from a Japanese McDonald's on eBay. Yay for more Dialga cards!

Another all-over foil that wasn't captured well by my scanner. A very nice looking card, though!

American Cards

I'll usually pick these cards up if I see them for sale, but I'm not dead set on getting 100% completion of them.

From the Dialga Premium box set, comes a Jumbo version of the promo below. I know there are many out there, but this is my first jumbo TCG card, and it's beautiful!

Pokemon Dialga Premium Box Single (US) 

The smaller card that was included with the big premium box set.

Pokemon Dialga Lv X Promo

Dialga Lv. X Promo (Platinum Version)

From the Platinum version of the tin, which features Giratina and Shaymin on the other sides (rather than Palkia and Darkrai).

Pokemon Dialga Platinum 23/127

Platinum: Dialga 23/127

Another card from a Japanese promo set that was tossed in with Platinum!

Pokemon Platinum: Dialga G Pokemon Platinum: Dialga G Reverse Holo

Platinum: Dialga G (and Reverse Holo version)

The US versions of the Galaxy Conquest Dialga G. I don't have the Lv. X of this card in English yet, since it's still a bit expensive due to its use in tournaments. I'm content to wait until it's no longer viable there!

Pokemon World Championship Decks: Dialga G

These are from the special decks sold in stores modeled after the World Championship winning decks. They're not tournament legal (denoted by their different backings and silver borders), so for that you have to use the above cards!

Pokemon Dialga Platinum Holo

Platinum: Holo and Reverse Holo (6/127)

In the Japanese set, this was part of a promo pack, but here it's just thrown in with a regular set.

Pokemon Dialga Supreme Victors Pack Promo

Supreme Victors Poster Pack Promo (DP Promo 49)

This one is from a small promotional pack sold in stores - not quite as exciting as the shiny card portfolio the Japanese version was included in and sold at the movie theater!

From the early Diamond and Pearl collector tin. I like the "my claws, let me show you them" pose.

Pokemon Dialga Diamond and Pearl P1 Holo

Diamond and Pearl (DP1)

From the first series of the D/P TCG. Pulled it myself while drafting this set! I'd like to get a better scan of this, but I'm not sure where in my house it is...
Not shown: Reverse-holo version of this card.

Box Sets and Other Items

Pokemon Dialga TCG 'Dialga Special Box'

Dialga Special Box TCG Set
Source: Yahoo! Japan

I watched this boxed set get relisted many many times on Yahoo Auctions because I didn't realize quite what it was (and that it wasn't half Palkia). A closer look at the auction showed me that it was an interesting and unique item I should definitely have in my collection, so I went ahead and bought it!
The contents are: Dialga Level X Starter Deck (shown below and purchased separately), 2 booster packs of Shining Darkness, an official playmat, a paper card box (紙製, not really sure what that is), and a special Dialga and Palkia mini-pack. Although I'm a bit curious about the card box and mini-pack, I'm going to keep this 2007 collectible sealed in its packaging.

Pokemon Dialga TCG Tins

Two different and stylin' cases featuring Dialga! Both are American releases.

GE Deck

Great Encounters: Time Theme Deck

It's not all Dialga, but it came with the promo card and the coin, and features Dialga on the cover (and no one else), so why not?

Theme Deck (Japanese)

Sure, I had the coin already, and the card in English, but the set is a neat item in itself (and so sparkly!)

Premium Box

This card set includes a few special Dialga cards, but the set on its own is a nifty collectible too.

These are the booster packs that I know of that feature Dialga: Diamond and Pearl (US and Japanese versions), and Platinum. I'm probably missing a bunch more!
