Miraidon

Competitive Strategy

Miraidon is an Electric/Dragon legendary attacker with Electric/Dragon typing. Electric/Dragon STAB lets it pressure Water, Flying, and Dragon targets. Its role depends on the format, but the type-chart job is clear: use its useful resistances, immunities, or offensive pressure to force the opponent into predictable answers rather than treating it as a generic switch-in. Stats, ability choice, and legal moves still decide how aggressively it can be positioned. The weakness profile is the central part of the page: Miraidon is 2× weak to Ice, Ground, Dragon, and Fairy. Miraidon has no type immunity. These numbers come from the standard type chart for Electric/Dragon, so ability effects, field effects, Terastallization, or format-specific rules can change an individual turn without changing the baseline matchup. Do not leave Miraidon in front of a super-effective attacker just because it has a useful offensive move in return. To use Miraidon well, bring it in through a resisted move, a pivot, a forced switch, or a revenge-kill window rather than repeated raw entries. It appreciates teammates that cover Ice, Ground, Dragon, and Fairy pressure and create safe entries. To counter Miraidon, preserve Ice-type attackers, Ground-type attackers, Dragon-type attackers, and Fairy-type attackers and pressure it before it can turn its matchup into momentum. Use the type chart first, then account for speed, bulk, ability, recovery, and revealed coverage before committing to the exchange.
