What exactly is the best draw engine in Dialga G? I've tried these:

1-1 Claydol (works great, but sometimes it takes a while to get out)
2 Volkner's Philosophy- just like Claydol, but it burns a turn for a supporter)
3-1 Uxie Lv.X (Machamp runs right through it and Trade Off isn't necessarily good)
 
I tend to run:
1-1 Claydol
1 Uxie
1 Volkner's

Gives you a few options. Volkner's is not AS good in an SP deck as you tend to accumulate cards very quickly.
 
i won states and T16'd regionals without claydol, it just slows me down i think. uxie is better for it IMO, a claydol can't really help you as you always have like 10 cards in your hand from cyrus and stuff.
 
Lol, the same can be said for when you use Uxie. Basically you only get to use setup once or twice because of bench space and amount of cards in hand if you run it with no claydol. Atleast with claydol you can get rid of trainers and stuff which helps against gengar and helps to draw more cards next turn.

You can't afford any other way.

Claydol is the most efficient and consistent draw engine in the format. I dunno why people suddenly started thinking that SP decks didn't need draw and consistency.

The Uxie Bandwagon effect. Then again, some toolbox builds did well with solely Uxies and Cyrus', however Dialga =/= Toolbox. It's a matter of bench space demands.
