Suggested usage notes

Koraidon performs best when its role is clearly defined in team preview. As a Restricted and Physical Attacker Pokémon, focus on positioning it where it can execute its job without being forced into unfavorable exchanges. As a restricted Pokémon, it will attract significant counterplay — plan support and speed control around it. Be mindful of Psychic- and Fairy-type coverage from the format's top special attackers.

When teambuilding, pair Koraidonwith Pokémon that cover its type weaknesses (see counters section below) and provide the speed control or redirection it needs to function. Review the common moves and items section for established sets, then adjust based on your team's specific needs.
