Palkia (パルキア, Palkia) is a fictional creature from the Pokémon series.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Palkia appears as a stage hazard on the Spear Pillar stage. Palkia will always appear whenever Spear Pillar has a purple hue. It can use several abilities:

  • Collapsing one of the three sections of the floor (left, middle, or right)
  • Creating a powerful beam over a portion of the stage vertically, or horizontally through the lower section of the stage
  • Tilting the camera
  • Rotating the camera 180 degrees
  • Flipping the camera horizontally, resulting in a mirror-image
  • Decreasing gravity, making characters jump higher and fall slower

Trophy information

A Spatial Pokémon. In the Sinnoh region, this Pokémon has been revered for many generations, much like Dialga. Dialga warps time, but Palkia has control over space. It lives between parallel dimensions and is known for its power, rumored to be able to warp space. It can use Spatial Rend to rip through the very space an enemy resides in, damaging the foe at the same time.
