That being said, if everyone's in agreement with this we should really reconsider the dimensional status of their most powerful forms.

For one it's been heavily implied, and outright stated that they embody not just their concepts, but their own dimensions.

Said dimensions also exists on a higher plane relative to the Pokemon Universe. In the dub Arceus's Universe is literally stated to be above them all.

Hence, their lifting strength should also be upgraded to Immeasurable as well and they should be categorized as higher dimensional entities, if it's agreed upon.
 
This seems ok since I really don't know what to classify "dimensions on a higher plane"
 
You don't really have to worry about the dimensional theory. Them embodying their dimensions is probably the most important information to consider.
 
The first link has nothing to do with higher dimensions, but the fact that Dialga and Palkia who were formed from the dimensional material of their perspective home realms, implies they embody them.

The Universe is a 4 dimensional construct. Existing beyond them indicates a four dimensional existence. It's less to do with their dimensions themselves that are still 4 dimensional, but rather the entities there. I probably should have specified.

Of course. Feel free to disregard the dub if you wish as I only added it as an unnecessary incentive as it only highlights what we are already shown: they transcend the Universe.
 
I think that this seems reasonable.
 
So for Arceus, Palkia, Dialga, and Giratina, their stats should be changed to:

Lifting Strength: Immeasurable

Categories: Higher Dimensional Beings

Should Palkia, Dialga, and Giratina's speed be changed to "Omnipresent in their own space" considering their universe/dimensions are separate from our own as well as them having full control over their dimensions?
 
The lifting strength is fine. I am not sure about the omnipresent speed.
 
Omnipresence is already listed under their abilities though. As linked in the OP, Giratina at least, was explicitly ereferred to as the Distortion World itself.

That and Palkia, Dialga and Giratina were stated to be referred to as Space, Time and Antimatter that makes up the multiverse in a scene describing their creation from a document. "World" in that context mean multiverse as Antimatter exists in a parallel Universe.

I don't really mind whether or not they get the upgrade, or it simply remains as an ability but they do deserve it being listed as their conceptual existence either way.
