Choice Scarf Miraidon is a powerful cleaner and revenge killer, forcing out many of the tier's most powerful wallbreakers such as Choice Band Koraidon, Choice Specs Miraidon, and Great Tusk while threatening to sweep late-game after its checks have been removed. Overheat is a nice midground option that lets Miraidon take out Corviknight and Iron Treads while threatening Ground-types without risking being locked into a move that has immunities. U-turn takes advantage of Miraidon's ability to threaten most of the metagame to generate momentum for its teammates. Miraidon's preferred Tera type is Fairy, which allows it to force a 50/50 against opposing Choice Scarf Miraidon and Koraidon. Tera Fairy also removes Miraidon's Ice-weakness, allowing it to survive hits from Iron Bundle and Chien-Pao. Alternatively, Tera Dragon can be used to substantially increase the damage done by Draco Meteor, allowing Miraidon to heavily damage Ting-Lu and more effectively break Clodsire. Tera Electric is a third option, maximizing the power of Electro Drift once opposing Ground-types have been removed. Choice Scarf Miraidon fits well on many balance teams that appreciate the revenge killing that it offers. It pairs especially well with Pokemon that can wear down its Ground-type checks, notably Chien-Pao, Great Tusk, and other Miraidon. Defensively, balance staples like Clodsire, Corviknight, Iron Treads, Ting-Lu, and Toxapex are greatly appreciated, as they can deal with Pokemon like opposing Miraidon, Great Tusk, Koraidon, and Chien-Pao that can potentially come in for free after Miraidon has picked up a KO. Gothitelle is also an especially good partner thanks to its ability to trap and remove many of Miraidon's most effective checks, notably beating Ting-Lu, Clodsire, and Blissey, clearing the way for it to sweep late-game. Similarly, Dugtrio is also a decent partner, as it can trap and eliminate opposing Choice Scarf Miraidon and Koraidon that have locked into Dragon Moves and Choice Band Chien-Pao that hasn't locked into Ice Shard while also beating Blissey, Clodsire, and chipped Iron Treads.

Choice Scarf Miraidon is one of the most effective forms of speed control in AG, reliably revenge killing most boosted sweepers or breakers with ease [this is vague, what boosted sweepers are we talking about? it doesn't revenge the three most common ones in Double Dance Miraidon, Flame Charge Koraidon and SD Chien-Pao. Either remove this bit or add examples. This also means that it's not actually that effective of a Speed control option, so dial that piece of wording down a bit as well]. Electro Drift gives Miraidon a powerful STAB move with no drawbacks, allowing it to reliably force out or outright KO a menagerie of offensive threats such as Flutter Mane, Chi-Yu, [odd example, as Chi-Yu is revenged just as well by Draco Meteor] and Iron Valiant, while also pressuring many common defensive Pokemon such as Corviknight and Toxapex. Draco Meteor rounds out Miraidon's STABs, allowing it to revenge kill Choice Band unboosted Koraidon, offensive Great Tusk, and opposing non-Choice Scarf Miraidon that hasn't Terastallized into the Fairy type, while also chipping Ting-Lu should it switch in. Overheat chiefly allows Miraidon to threaten Iron Treads, but it can also be a useful midground option against Ground-type Pokemon that might Terastallize into the Steel or Fairy type to absorb a Draco Meteor hit, such as a slightly chipped Great Tusk or Dugtrio [this is a very long-winded way of saying it eases prediction vs. Corviknight + Ground-type cores]. U-turn is the preferred option for the fourth slot, taking takes advantage of Miraidon's ability to threaten most of the offensive metagame to generate momentum for its teammates while slightly chipping Ting-Lu as it switches in. Alternatively, Dazzling Gleam can also be run to deal more damage to Ting-Lu. Miraidon's preferred Tera type is Fairy, which allows it to force a 50/50 against opposing Choice Scarf Miraidon or Koraidon by becoming suddenly immune and resistant to Dragon and Fighting. Tera Fairy also allows Miraidon to reduce the threat posed by Chien-Pao's priority moves, allowing it to safely revenge kill even boosted Chien-Pao. [Just say that it removes the Ice-weakness, which is handy against Iron Bundle and Chien-Pao's Ice Shard] Alternatively, Tera Dragon can be used to substantially increase the damage done by Draco Meteor, allowing Miraidon to heavily damage Ting-Lu [it breaks Clodsire down more easily as well] and wear it down faster over the course of a game. Choice Scarf Miraidon fits well on many balance teams that appreciate the speed control that it offers. It pairs especially well with Pokemon that can wear down its ground-type checks, such as other Chien-Pao, Great Tusk, and other Miraidon, as well as balance staples like Corviknight, Toxapex, and Ting-Lu that can deal with the threats [which ones?] that can potentially come in for free after Miraidon has picked up a kill. [the very best teammate in Gothitelle is left unmentioned here. Add it, and stress that Tera Electric is a good option on these teams]

the wording here gets quite long-winded at times, which makes it a bit of a tedious read. pay some attention to this

Draco Meteor rounds out Miraidon's STABs, allowing it to revenge kill unboosted Koraidon, Great Tusk, and opposing non-Choice Scarf Miraidon that hasn't Terastallized into the Fairy type, while also chipping Ting-Lu should it switch in. okay, idk, all these examples of pokemon are really redundant. even to a new player, you don't have to explain that they're supposed to click edrift against pex/corv/valiant/mane, or click draco against kora, tusk, and non-tera fairy mira. this just makes the analyses really wordy and difficult to read, and OM mods want the analyses to be short and have explanations only where it is necessary. something like - edrift and draco are strong stab moves that hit most of the meta - is honestly good enough. definitely shorten this and tag me on discord so I can have a look again. Overheat chiefly allows Miraidon to threaten Iron Treads, but it can also be a useful midground option, OHKOing Corviknight while also threatening frailer Ground-types that might try to pivot into Electro Drift, such as Great Tusk and Dugtrio. I think you can just shorten this to "overheat is a midground attack to click vs corvi + ground type cores" (obviously word it better). U-turn takes advantage of Miraidon's ability to threaten most of the metagame to generate momentum for its teammates. Miraidon's preferred Tera type is Fairy, which allows it to force a 50/50 against opposing Choice Scarf Miraidon or Koraidon by becoming suddenly immune and resistant to Dragon and Fighting. Tera Fairy also removes Miraidon's Ice-weakness, allowing it to survive hits from Iron Bundle and Chien-Pao. Alternatively, Tera Dragon can be used to substantially increase the damage done by Draco Meteor, allowing Miraidon to heavily damage Ting-Lu and more effectively break Clodsire. Tera Electric is a third option, maximizing the power of Electro Drift so that Miraidon can spam it safely late-game if opposing Ground-types have been removed. Choice Scarf Miraidon fits well on many balance teams that appreciate the speed control that it offers. It pairs especially well with Pokemon that can wear down its ground-type checks, such as other ? Chien-Pao, Great Tusk, and other Miraidon, as well as balance staples like Corviknight, Toxapex, and Ting-Lu that can deal with Pokemon like opposing Miraidon, Great Tusk, Koraidon, and Chien-Pao that can potentially come in for free after Miraidon has picked up a kill. whaaaat ?? this was super confusing to read. re-read this and try to fix the wording, maybe split offensive and defensive teammates into separate sentences. Gothitelle is also an especially good partner, thanks to its ability to trap and remove many of Miraidon's most effective checks, notably beating Ting-Lu, Clodsire, and Blissey, clearing the way for it to sweep late-game. mention dugtrio as well, he removes choice scarfers like mira and kora if they click dragon move, chien-pao if it clicks not Ice Shard, and he also beats clod blissey and treads ("and Iron Treads after minimal chip / weakens Iron Treads to bring it in range of Draco Meteor", since Dugtrio doesnt actually kill Treads)

Overheat is a nice midground option that lets Miraidon take out Corviknight and Iron Treads while threatening Ground-types without risking being locked into a move that has immunities. Overheat threatens Ground-types and Corviknight without being useless against a certain type, making it a low-risk option. (CryoGyro helped with this one) U-turn takes advantage of Miraidon's ability to threaten most of the metagame to generate by generating momentum for its teammates. Miraidon's preferred Tera type is Fairy, which allows it to force a 50/50 against allows it to play mind games against opposing Choice Scarf Miraidon or and Koraidon. (add period) by becoming suddenly immune and resistant to Dragon and Fighting. Tera Fairy also removes Miraidon's Ice-weakness(remove hyphen, add space), allowing it to survive hits from Iron Bundle and Chien-Pao. Alternatively, Tera Dragon can be used to substantially increase increases the damage done by Draco Meteor, allowing Miraidon to heavily damage Ting-Lu and more effectively break Clodsire.

Choice Scarf Miraidon fits well on many balance teams that appreciate its revenge killing. the speed control that it offers. It pairs especially well with Pokemon that can wear down its Ground-type checks, notably Chien-Pao, Great Tusk, and other Miraidon. (seems that this info is covered by the next sentence) Defensively, balance staples like Clodsire, Corviknight, Iron Treads, Ting-Lu, and Toxapex are greatly appreciated as they can deal with Pokemon Miraidon's checks like opposing Miraidon, Great Tusk, Koraidon, and Chien-Pao. (add period) that can potentially come in for free after Miraidon has picked up a kill. Gothitelle is also an especially good partner,(remove comma) thanks to its ability to trap and remove many of Miraidon's most effective checks, notably beating Ting-Lu, Clodsire, and Blissey, clearing the way for it to sweep late-game. Similarly, Dugtrio is also a decent partner, as it can trap and eliminate opposing Choice Scarf Miraidon and Koraidon that have Choice-locked into Dragon Movesmoves, (add comma) or Choice Band Chien-Pao that hasn't not Choice-locked into Ice Shard, (add comma) while also beating Blissey, Clodsire, and chipped Iron Treads.
