EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Calm Mind
- Electro Drift
- Draco Meteor
- Overheat / Solar Beam
[SET COMMENTS]
Calm Mind Miraidon is able to fit on balance and bulky offense teams as a potent wallbreaker due to the raw power provided to it by its ability, Hadron Engine, and great Special Attack. Overheat is used as a midground into teams with both Ground- and Fairy-types. Solar Beam when paired with sun or Power Herb allows Miraidon to hit Ting-Lu super effectively while avoiding the drawbacks of Draco Meteor. Tera Dragon boosts Draco Meteor's damage to horrifying levels, allowing Life Orb Miraidon to OHKO Ting-Lu after one Calm Mind boost and OHKO Arceus-Ground unboosted, both after one layer of Spikes, and it removes Miraidon's Ground-type weakness. Tera Grass allows Life Orb Miraidon to OHKO Ting-Lu with a little bit of chip damage and resist Ground-type moves from Ting-Lu and Arceus-Ground. Life Orb is the preferred item due to it letting Miraidon more easily KO foes such as Ting-Lu and Arceus formes. Alternatively, Heavy-Duty Boots provides Miraidon with greater longevity, letting it come in more freely and potentially outlast its checks. Power Herb is also an option to remove the need of setting sun for Miraidon, allowing it to use Solar Beam freely once. Koraidon is an absolutely mandatory partner for Miraidon running Solar Beam without Power Herb, as it sets up sun for Miraidon and can also pivot it in. Teammates such as Calm Mind Arceus-Ground and Calyrex-S are highly appreciated, as after Miraidon gets rid of Ting-Lu for them, they can potentially sweep. Zacian-C, Koraidon, and Arceus are also highly valuable teammates for Miraidon, as it is able to switch into their checks such as Skeledirge and Toxapex with ease, set up Calm Mind, and heavily damage or potentially KO switch-ins such as Ting-Lu. As Miraidon is easily revenge killed by Pokemon such as Choice Scarf Calyrex-S, Choice Scarf Koraidon, Extreme Killer Arceus, and Zacian-C, checks to them such as Ting-Lu, defensive Arceus formes, Landorus-T, and Toxapex are greatly appreciated.
