[SET COMMENTS]
Fur Coat Miraidon is a resilient wall with strong offensive pressure that can also check Pokemon like Mega Lucario and Ash-Greninja. Torch Song provides coverage against Mega Steelix and boosts Miraidon's Special Attack, potentially facilitating a late-game sweep. Spikes can support Miraidon's offensive teammates and force progress against hard walls like Mega Swampert. Thunder Cage + Torch Song lets Miraidon most Steel-types well, making it an effective user of Mortal Spin. Will-O-Wisp threatens to burn offensive threats and some switch-ins like Mega Swampert. Take Heart is another way to boost Special Attack, and also means Miraidon can’t be put on a permanent timer once it loses Covert Cloak. Miraidon struggles against Mega Garchomp and mixed attackers like Ultra Necrozma, so Pokemon like Celesteela and Arceus-Ground can pair well with it. Miraidon can be Imposter-proofed by itself in most cases due to Thunder Cage; however, Pokemon like Blissey and the aforementioned Arceus-Ground can Imposter-proof it in emergency situations.
