Why Miraidon?
Because it kills Kyogre, duh (unless it's tera ground, in which case ur pretty much screwed). And other miraidons (especially with tera fairy), and other ho-ohs, and koraidon (again, tera fairy helps a lot). Tera fairy Dazzling Gleam 2HKOs Ting-Lu, another threat. Ho-oh helps miraidon with Zacian-C, as well as Caly-S to a lesser degree. Parabolic Charge is an alternate to Electro Drift and can provide some healing if needed
Weaknesses
Stealth rocks. And maybe caly-s. Scarfed miraidons and scarfed koraidons might force a tera, and Zacian-C with wild charge is also bad bc ho-oh cant survive it and zacian outspeeds miraidon... Arceus ground is also a threat, especially bulky sets, as miraidon can't ohko it with draco meteor. and it can also put down rocks. while ho-oh may be able to tank a few hits from it, none of ho-oh's attacks are supereffective, so it's slightly hard to kill (still dies from a few brave birds tho, dependingon its defense). Ting-Lu is also a problem (again, rocks), but dazzling gleam helps.
Anyways what i mean to say is band ho-oh is stupid and no one in their right mind would use it. Thank you for listening to my ted talk
