Duraludon acts as a stalwart wall that valiantly checks threats such as Dragapult, Weavile, and Scizor, which otherwise sweep Dragon teams! Flash Cannon threatens Ice- and Fairy-types such as Weavile and Hatterene. Foul Play punishes setup sweepers such as Dragapult, Dragonite, and Scizor. Thunder Wave slows down the opposing team, enabling wallbreakers with lackluster Speed such as Hydreigon, Latios, and Kyurem. Hydreigon provides a Ground immunity with Levitate and deals with walls such as Ferrothorn, Celesteela, and Toxapex, which take advantage of Duraludon's passivity. Choice Scarf Dragapult helps cover Duraludon's poor Speed, checking threats such as Swift Swim Kingdra and Volcarona, and also provides an immunity to Fighting. Dragalge is a specially defensive wall that deals with Tapu Fini, which uses Duraludon as setup fodder, and forms an entry hazard stacking core with Toxic Spikes. Kyurem deals with Toxapex and Nidoking and pressures types such as Flying, Water, and Poison, which Duraludon struggles against.
