Ursaring in Palkia raid ?
Is (Counter/Play Rough) Ursaring a good counter against Palkia, and in the future, against Dialga?

It's... not bad? Against Palkia, anyway. It probably can't soak a single Draco Meteor, but if you're in Cloudy Weather, and can dodge a DM, you should be able to get 2 Play Rough's off before being knocked out. Counter does Neutral damage, so it's only really being used to charge up Play Rough.
Against Diagla, no. Counter does SE damage, but Play Rough is just neutral, so it's not worth it. If you want to use Ursaring against Diagla, you'll need Counter/Close Combat... but really, you should be using a Machamp, Hariyama or even Breloom/Toxicroak instead of Ursaring due to Dynamic Punch being much better than Close Combat.
