Koraidon is a threatening wallbreaker thanks to its strong STAB moves and massive firepower. U-turn is a safe midground that lets Koraidon generate momentum for its team while gradually whittling down checks like Skeledirge, Scream Tail, and Great Tusk. Heavy Slam can be used over Flare Blitz to hit Dachsbun and Scream Tail at the cost of making Koraidon even more dependent on predictions to break through Corviknight. Tera Fire is Koraidon's Tera type of choice because it boosts Flare Blitz's damage output and grants a resistance to Ice- and Fairy-type moves from Chien-Pao, Iron Bundle, Miraidon, and Flutter Mane. Choice Band Koraidon fits best on balance teams that appreciate its massive firepower and can give it the support it needs to excel. Notable offensive teammates include Chi-Yu, Great Tusk, and Miraidon which all appreciate it setting sun and can pressure its few checks in Toxapex, Skeledirge, and Great Tusk. Koraidon is extremely prediction-reliant and susceptible to revenge killing from Pokemon like Flutter Mane, Iron Bundle, Chien-Pao, Miraidon, and Choice Scarf Koraidon, so it needs a solid defensive core to support it with balance staples like Corviknight, Toxapex, Clodsire, Ting-Lu, Skeledirge, and Iron Treads.
