Choice Specs Magnezone's STAB Thunderbolt and Flash Cannon hit Water- and Flying-type Pokemon like Primarina and Corviknight and Fairy-, Rock-, and Ice-type Pokemon like Sylveon, Crustle, and Galarian Darmanitan, respectively. Hyper Beam hits harder than either of Magnezone's STAB attacks against neutrally effective targets, like Choice Specs Porygon-Z, Dracovish, and Urshifu-S. Mirror Coat is useful against certain Choice item special attackers, like Chandelure and Gengar. Steel Beam can be used to OHKO specially defensive Aromatisse. Although relatively unreliable, Body Press is an option for the mirror Magnezone matchup. 80 HP and 68 Defense EVs are used to survive a Choice Band Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes, while 136 Speed is run to outspeed Adamant Crustle. The rest is put into Special Attack to maximize damage output.

Magnezone will have issues against specially defensive walls that can easily sponge up Magnezone's attacks, such as Snorlax, Chansey, Porygon2, and Galarian Corsola. Magnezone therefore appreciates stallbreakers like Taunt Urshifu-S and Aromatisse, which can shut down these passive strategies and in return appreciate Magnezone's offensive pressure against opposing Urshifu-S and Aromatisse as well as against Urshifu-R. Magnezone also struggles with Mold Breaker Pokemon like Haxorus, Hawlucha, and Excadrill, as well as fellow Sturdy user Sawk, and thus also appreciates support from Pokemon like Substitute + Disable Dragapult, Aqua Jet Primarina, and Arcanine, which in return enjoy Magnezone's positive matchups against Pokemon like opposing Primarina, non-Babiri Berry Whimsicott, and Slowbro. Trick users like Rotom-A and Gardevoir also serve Magnezone well as partners, beating both the aforementioned specially defensive walls and some of the Mold Breaker Pokemon. They appreciate Magnezone's ability to handle Choice Band Galarian Darmanitan and Durant.

Mirror Coat is useful against certain Choice Item special attackers, like Chandelure and Gengar. Steel Beam can be used to OHKO specially defensive Aromatisse. Body Press allows Magnezone to be able to beat Magnezone without Body Press. This, of course, isn't 100% reliable. (This feels relatively sketchy. Don't say that it allows you to beat opposing Magnezone if it isn't 100% reliable because that sends mixed messages. Something like "Although relatively unreliable, Body Press is an option for the mirror Magnezone matchup" says the same thing in better context.) 80 HP and 68 Defense is used to survive a Choice Band Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes, while 136 Speed is run to outspeed Adamant Crustle. The rest is put into Special Attack, to maximize damage output
