But garchomp is still garchomp. The SDYache set works well in almost any team (I particularly love it on the sun team) as a wallbreaker and to create holes for the primary sweeper. The CB set is fantastic...absolutely awesome and happens to be my favorite set. It's strong and the speed is fantastic for a CB mon. IMHO, CB is the best garchomp set but I am absolutely positive almost everyone disagrees. I don't know about S tier (possibly but it doesn't seem like a solid S) but it's at least A-tier worthy.
I still think garchomp is way overrated.
In almost any situation, I'd much rather use terrakion and landorus.
I hate saying one pokemon outclasses another and terrakion doesn't really outclass garchomp. but Terrakion is faster, just as strong, and has rock polish to use on Double dancer, which can actually sweep. Landorus can also sweep teams unlike garchomp. Also, garchomp doesn't outrun anything that landorus can't other than landorus and speedtie with other landsharks. All in all, landorus and terrakion can sweep and garchomp can't and in my opinion garchomp is overrated.
