Definitely split the choice sets, they play very differently.

Also add SubSD with Salac, monster late game sweeper. Weaker than SubSD Salac Terrakion, but way easier to set-up.

Finally add a strong mention on the SD set, that if you go with Yache Berry, going with 11 Def ivs to give ScarfSect an Atk boost is a must, preventing your Yache Berry from being uselss. ScarfSect is one of the main reasons to use Yache Chomp anyway...

EDIT: I am not sure on this one but maybe 3 attacks + SR Garchomp deserves a set. Something like this:

Garchomp @ Life Orb / Rocky Helmet
Trait: Rough Skin
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 Atk
Naive / Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Outrage / Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Fire Blast / Fire Fang

EDIT2: Forgot to slash D-Claw, which is a fine choice as well. Rough Skin + Rocky Helmet fucks most spinners such as Bulky Starmie, Forretress, Tentacruel and Donphan (you beat Forretress and Tenta anyway but whatever), and harasses over jealous U-turn spammers and priority users.
