Send Out Koraidon or Miraidon Reduce HP with Damaging Moves Use Endure After It Powers Up Heal or Attack While It Recharges Terastallize and Tera Blast to Win
|
At the start of the fight against the Guardian of Paradise, you won't have any Pokemon active and can't use any attacks or items. You will need to select and send out Koraidon or Miraidon from the Pokemon menu to progress the fight.
Wear down the Guardian of Paradise's health bar with Koraidon/Miraidon's damaging moves to progress the fight.
When the Guardian of Paradise uses Charge or Bulk Up, this indicates that it will send out a powerful attack on the following turn. Prevent your Koraidon/Miraidon from fainting by using Endure before it occurs.
Note that if you fail to use Endure before the follow-up attack, Koraidon/Miraidon will still tough out the attack and survive at 1 HP.
After the Guardian of Paradise performs its devastating attack, it will need to recharge, giving you a free turn. Take advantage of this free turn by healing your Koraidon/Miraidon with a Max Potion or continuing to wear down the boss's health bar with damaging moves.
To finish the fight, Terastallize your Koraidon/Miraidon and use Tera Blast to land super-effective hits until the Guardian of Paradise goes down.
