Recommended Moveset For One Shot
When you are aiming for a One Shot in an Electric Weak Raid, then increase Electric Move powers by 2 times with "Charge". The effects of Charge will not disappear until you use an Electric Move, so using it in the beginning of battle is recommended.
Effective In Raids That Are Weak Against Electric

Electro Drift, the Electric Attack of Power 100, making it very powerful in Water or Flying type Raids that are weak to Electric type. On the other hand, it is not recommended to bring it to Raids where Electric attacks will be halved or disabled.
Like The Others, There Are Less Reroll Steps
The 2nd Miraidon that you can capture, will have the ideal Nature and 3IV with BEST SP ATK. Due to this, compared to the other Pokemon, there are less Reroll steps so it is recommended.

Recommended Moveset
- With Charge, increase Electric Moves powers by 2 times
- Decrease SP DEF with Metal Sound
- Increase damage with Go all out!
- One Shot with Electro Drift
- With Charge, increase Electric Moves powers by 2 times
- Decrease SP DEF with Metal Sound
- Increase damage with Go all out!
- One Shot with Electro Drift
On the first move, use Charge and increase Electric Moves powers by 2 times. Decidueye will nullify our increase, but Charge effects will still be active.
Attack Decidueye with Metal Sound and decrease SP DEF by 2 levels. Also if you have Throat Spray effective then when you hit with Metal Sound, then Miraidon's SP ATK will increase by 1 level.
If You Miss 1 Time, It Will Still Work
Since Metal Sound's accuracy is 85, there is a chance it will not hit Decidueye. Since Electric Terrain is effective for 5 turns, it will still work if you only miss it once. If you miss it twice, then it is recommended to retry from the start.
After you have hit with Metal Sound, then cheer with "Go all out!" and increase your damage. Not like Metal Sound, this will not miss so it is stable.
Once all the steps has been setup, then attack with Electro Drift and One Shot. Make sure that Decidueye does not have a screen set up, and the Electric Terrain has been set to place as well.
Less Training Preparation Need To Be Done Than Others
Miraidon, which can be obtained through the story, has a set ideal Nature and 3IV with the highest stat being Sp. ATK. This makes Stat training more easier compared to other Pokemon.

Miraidon - How To Use In Raids
- Give it the Life Orb
- Use Metal Sound on the first turn
- Wait for ally support before using Electro Drift
- Give It The Life Orb
- Use Metal Sound On The First Turn
- Wait For Support Before Using Electro Drift
| Item | Effects |
|---|---|
| Life Orb | When you have it, your HP is decreased by 1/10 every time you attack, but the power of your technique is increased by 1.3 times |
To increase Miraidon's damage, using the Life Orb is recommended. However, if the enemy sets a Status move, we recommend using Clear Amulet as a countermeasure.
First, use Metal Sound to lower the enemy's Sp. DEF.
After using Metal Sound, wait for support to weaken enemies and strengthen allies. After a certain amount of time, use Electro Drift to attack and defeat them.
