Koraidon is a strong and fast physical attacker that sets up sun to increase its damage and benefit its teammates. Thanks to its high Attack, it can threaten many Pokemon in the metagame such as Rillaboom, Urshifu-S, and Terapagos. Collision Course can threaten Incineroar and is Koraidon's preferred STAB move thanks to the lack of drawbacks. Flare Blitz can OHKO Amoonguss and Rillaboom. Flame Charge is used to deal chip damage and outspeed threats such as Calyrex-S and Choice Scarf Landorus. Clear Amulet blocks stat drops that would hinder or slow down Koraidon, such as Intimidate and Parting Shot from Incineroar and Icy Wind from Flutter Mane. The EV spread allows Koraidon to survive an Ice Spinner from Chien-Pao, a Glacial Lance from Calyrex-I, and a Helping Hand-boosted Astral Barrage from Spell Tag Calyrex-S. With a Jolly nature, Koraidon can outspeed maximum Speed Ogerpon, and with an Adamant nature, Koraidon can OHKO Zamazenta-C with Flare Blitz after Terastallizing. Tera Fire allows Koraidon to OHKO Calyrex-S while also granting defensive capabilities, allow Koraidon to resist Fairy- and Ice-type moves such as Moonblast from Flutter Mane and Glacial Lance from Calyrex-I.
Kyogre and Pelipper can replace Koraidon's sun with rain and threaten it with Ice Beam or Hurricane, respectively, or with Origin Pulse or Weather Ball if Koraidon has Terastallized. Flutter Mane outspeeds and threatens Koraidon via Moonblast and can also slow it down with Thunder Wave. Calyrex-I can Terastallize into a Fire-type to resist Flare Blitz or into a Fairy-type to resist Collision Course and remove its Fire weakness. Calyrex-I can also threaten Koraidon via Glacial Lance or, if Koraidon has Terastallized, High Horsepower. Flutter Mane is a solid partner for Koraidon, as Koraidon can boost its Speed under the sun, and Flutter Mane can help Koraidon outspeed foes with Icy Wind or Thunder Wave as well as reset sun with Sunny Day in the face of Kyogre and Pelipper. Raging Bolt resists both of Kyogre's and Pelipper's Water- and Flying-type moves while threatening them with its Electric-Type STAB attacks like Thunderbolt and Thunderclap. Ogerpon-C provides redirection and strong Rock- and Grass-type coverage that can pressure Calyrex-I and OHKO Kyogre and Pelipper. Entei can be used as a secondary single-target nuke that can OHKO Flutter Mane and threaten Calyrex-I with burns from Sacred Fire. Chi-Yu can support Koraidon with Snarl to devastate Calyrex-S or Taunt to deter status conditions such as Will-O-Wisp from Incineroar and Spore from Amoonguss while also launching powerful Heat Waves under sun. Ditto has a great matchup against the Calyrex formes, as it copies their potential stat boosts, reverses Trick Room in the face of Calyrex-I, and threatens Calyrex-S with an OHKO.
