Double Dance Miraidon is one of the most potent sweepers and wincons in the AG metagame. It outspeeds the entire metagame after using Agility, and can muscle through defensive Pokemon after a boost or two from Calm Mind. Parabolic Charge greatly improves Miraidon's longevity, and Electric Terrain makes up for its low Base Power, notably letting Miraidon outheal Blissey's Seismic Toss after two Calm Mind boosts. Dazzling Gleam hits Ting-Lu, Great Tusk, and opposing Dragon-types for super effective damage. Tera Fairy enables setup on the Ice-, Ground-, and Dragon-type attacks that would otherwise threaten it, boosts the power of Dazzling Gleam, and limits revenge killing attempts from Koraidon, Miraidon, Chien-Pao, and Iron Bundle. The given EV spread allows Miraidon to outspeed Quark Drive-boosted Iron Bundle after an Agility and maximizes Leftovers recovery; the rest is put into Special Attack and Defense. Gothitelle and Dugtrio are phenomenal partners for their ability to trap Clodsire and Iron Treads, removing defensive counterplay to Miraidon. Chien-Pao and Great Tusk are able to bait in physically defensive Pokemon like Toxapex, Corviknight, and Alomomola for Miraidon to set up on and greatly threaten Clodsire and Iron Treads. With dual screens support from Grimmsnarl, Miraidon is able to set up on more Pokemon, and revenge killing it becomes even more difficult. Toxic Spikes is a major hindrance, so Poison-types like Toxapex and Clodsire, or hazard removal from Iron Treads or Corviknight is greatly appreciated.

Double Dance Miraidon is one of the most potent sweepers in the Anything Goes metagame. Agility allows Miraidon to outspeed the entire offensive metagame after a single boost, while Calm Mind allows it to muscle through defensive Pokemon after a boost or two. Parabolic Charge greatly improves Miraidon’s longevity, with its low Base Power being made up for by Electric Terrain, notably letting Miraidon out-heal Blissey’s Seismic Toss after a Calm Mind boost. Dazzling Gleam allows Miraidon to hit Ting-Lu, Great Tusk, (AC) and opposing Dragon-types, and becomes a STAB move after Terastalizing. Dragon Pulse is an option to be considered for its ability to OHKO opposing Miraidon without a boost or having to Terastalize, but it leaves it walled by Ting-Lu. Leftovers greatly increases Miraidon’s longevity and enables it to attempt setting up multiple times per game. Tera Fairy enables Miraidon to set up on Ice, Ground, (AC) and Dragon-type attacks that would otherwise threaten it, as well as boosting Dazzling Gleam. [mention that you also weaken stuff like dragon moves from mira kora, ice moves from bundle, shard from chien-pao] The given EV spread outspeeds Quark Drive boosted Iron Bundle after an Agility and maximizes leftovers recovery, with the rest put into Special Attack and Defense. Chien-Pao, Iron Bundle, (AC) and Great Tusk are all good partners for Miraidon because they greatly threaten Clodsire and Iron Treads, the biggest roadblocks to a Miraidon sweep. Dual screens support from Grimmsnarl allows Miraidon to set up on more Pokemon and makes it difficult to revenge kill. Miraidon is also greatly hindered by Toxic Spikes, so Poison-types like Toxapex and Clodsire, as well as hazard removal from Great Tusk, Iron Treads and Corviknight. Mention Gothitelle and Dugtrio as they are able to cripple SpDef walls like Blissey, Iron Treads, and Clodsire.

Gothitelle and Dugtrio are especially noteworthy partners for their ability to trap Clodsire, Iron Treads, and Blissey; limiting the defensive counterplay to Miraidon even more.
-more emphasis should be put on Gothitelle and Dugtrio. They are by far the best partners for this set. Mention them first when talking about teammates-
