Miraidon is a great offensive pivot that is able to force plenty of switches due to its high Speed and incredible firepower. Heavy-Duty Boots allows Miraidon to continuously threaten the opposing team without accruing entry hazard damage. U-turn scouts for potential switches and generates momentum for teammates and is chosen over Volt Switch for the ability to pivot out against Ground-types like Ting-Lu and Clodsire. Overheat hits Iron Treads for super effective damage and alleviates predictions against teams with both Ground-types and Dragon-resistant foes, notably being a safe midground option against Corviknight and chipped Great Tusk. Tera Dragon maximizes Draco Meteor damage and increases the chances of breaking through Clodsire and Ting-Lu while also allowing Miraidon to beat Dugtrio that attempt to trap it. Trapping support from Gothitelle and Dugtrio is greatly appreciated, allowing Miraidon to bypass its limited pool of checks with ease. Koraidon, Great Tusk, Chien-Pao, and Iron Bundle are all great partners for their ability to threaten Miraidon's checks and provide opportunities for wallbreaking by forcing in Pokemon like Corviknight and Toxapex. In return, they benefit greatly from Miraidon's ability to generate momentum and bring them in safely to threaten its own checks. A strong defensive backbone is helpful to make the most of the longevity provided by Heavy-Duty Boots, so defensive Pokemon like Toxapex, Corviknight, and Clodsire are potent teammates that also check revenge killers like Choice Scarf Koraidon, Iron Bundle, and Chien-Pao. Fellow pivots like Iron Bundle, Koraidon, and Corviknight create potent VoltTurn cores with Miraidon that can wear down the opponent and give Miraidon the most opportunities. Entry hazard support from Ting-Lu or Clodsire allows Miraidon to wear down and outlast its checks, especially in tandem with VoltTurn support, so Gholdengo and Annihilape are valuable partners for their ability to deter Defog and Rapid Spin.

Miraidon is an great offensive pivot that is able to force plenty of switches due to its high speed and incredible firepower. Heavy-Duty Boots allows Miraidon to continuously threaten the opposing team without accruing entry hazard damage. Maybe you could mention how boots keeping it healthy also lets it potentially take an attack like an Espathra Stored Power or a Palafin-H Jet Punch in a pinch. U-turn scouts for potential switches and lets Miraidon pick the best teammate to switch to, being chosen over Volt Switch for the ability to pivot out against Ground-types like Ting-Lu and Clodsire. Draco Meteor and Electro Drift are powerful STAB moves that allow Miraidon to hit the majority of the metagame for massive damage. Do you really need to mention STAB moves? Overheat hits Iron Treads for super effective damage and alleviates predictions against teams with both Ground-types and Dragon-type resists. Tera Dragon is chosen to maximize Draco Meteor damage and increase the chances of breaking through Clodsire and Ting-Lu. Trapping support from Gothitelle and Dugtrio is greatly appreciated, allowing Miraidon to trap its limited pool of checks with great ease. This makes it sound like Miraidon is doing the trapping. Mention U-turn. Give a couple of examples of Miraidon's checks. Koraidon, Great Tusk, Chien-Pao, and Iron Bundle are all great partners for their ability to threaten Miradion's checks and provide opportunities for wallbreaking. How do they provide opportunities? For whom? Kind of vague. A strong defensive backbone is helpful to make the most of the longevity provided by Heavy-Duty Boots, so defensive Pokemon like Toxapex, Corviknight, and Clodsire are potent teammates. You could also mention how they can deal with Pokemon Miraidon is susceptible to be revenge killed by. Fellow pivots like Iron Bundle, Koraidon, and Corviknight create potent VoltTurn cores with Miraidon that can wear down the opponent and give it the most opportunities. You could mention how Miraidon appreciates entry hazard support to wear down its checks (especially if VoltTurn is being used).

The prose feels super clunky in the last few sentences but it does technically communicate the information so I'll leave it to GP to fix that unless you want to take a stab at cleaning it up. That aside, good work.
