Koraidon is a threatening wallbreaker thanks to its strong STAB moves and massive firepower. U-turn is a safe midground that lets Koraidon generate momentum for its team while gradually whittling down checks like Skeledirge, Scream Tail, and Great Tusk. Heavy Slam can be used over Flare Blitz to hit Dachsbun and Scream Tail at the cost of making Koraidon even more dependent on predictions to break through Corviknight. Tera Fire is Koraidon's Tera type of choice because it boosts Flare Blitz's damage output and grants a resistance to Ice- and Fairy-type moves from Chien-Pao, Iron Bundle, Miraidon, and Flutter Mane. Choice Band Koraidon fits best on balance teams that appreciate its massive firepower and can give it the support it needs to excel. Notable offensive teammates include Chi-Yu, Great Tusk, and Miraidon which all appreciate it setting sun and can pressure its few checks in Toxapex, Skeledirge, and Great Tusk. Koraidon is extremely prediction-reliant and susceptible to revenge killing from Pokemon like Flutter Mane, Iron Bundle, Chien-Pao, Miraidon, and Choice Scarf Koraidon, so it needs a solid defensive core to support it with balance staples like Corviknight, Toxapex, Clodsire, Ting-Lu, Skeledirge, and Iron Treads.

Koraidon is a threatening wallbreaker thanks to its strong typing wait how does its typing contribute to this? I'm confused and massive firepower. U-turn is a safe midground that lets Koraidon generate momentum for its team while gradually whittling down checks like Skeledirge, Scream Tail, and Great Tusk. Close Combat is generally preferred over Collision Course due to its greater damage output, but Collision Course is also an option because it doesn't drop Koraidon's defensive stats. remove mention of weak CC. Flare Blitz is a powerful coverage move that hits Corviknight and Amoonguss ?? lol while still hiting most of the metagame for neutral damage. honestly just remove the Flare Blitz sentence entirely, doesn't add much. Alternatively, Heavy Slam can be used to hit Tera Fairy Skeledirge Dachsbun and Scream Tail. tera fairy skeledirge is ohkod by flare blitz. Tera Fire is Koraidon's first choice of Tera Type because it boosts Flare Blitz's damage output while simultaneously granting a resistance to Ice, allowing Koraidon to stay in on Ice Shard Chien-Pao, Tera Fairy Miraidon, or Ice Beam Iron Bundle. If Koraidon runs Heavy Slam instead, it should opt for Tera Steel to achieve the same thing. Tera Fairy is also an option, allowing Koraidon to take a Dragon-type move from opposing Koraidon or Miraidon once, while taking most other hits neutrally. Choice Band Koraidon fits best on balance teams that appreciate its massive firepower and can give it the support it needs to excel. Notable good offensive teammates include Chi-Yu, Great Tusk, and Overheat Miraidon just band kora + mira is pretty threatening which all appreciate its Sun and can pressure its few checks in Toxapex, Skeledirge, and opposing Great Tusk. Koraidon is susceptible to revenge killing from Pokemon like Iron Bundle, Chien-Pao, Miraidon, and opposing Koraidon, so it needs a solid defensive core to support it, with balance staples like Corviknight, Toxapex, Clodsire, Ting-Lu, Skeledirge, and Iron Treads. mention something about band kora being very prediction reliant in this sentence

I think using heavy slam on this > flare blitz is kinda whack but we can discuss this more before the second check
nice work 1/2

Koraidon is extremely prediction-reliant and susceptible to revenge killing from Pokemon like Flutter Mane, Iron Bundle, Chien-Pao, Miraidon, and opposing Koraidon (maybe mention scarf on box legends, since they cant truly revenge kill unless they are faster or have priority in chienpao's case), so it needs a solid defensive core to support it, with balance staples like Corviknight, Toxapex, Clodsire, Ting-Lu, Skeledirge, and Iron Treads.
