Tyranitar @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 Atk/ 4 Def/ 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
-Stone Edge
-Crunch
-Pursuit
-Superpower
ScarfTar makes an excellent partner to Specs Keldeo by offering a bit of extra speed to their core and handling several of Keldeo's major checks, such as the Latis, (AV) Torn-T, Raikou, Mega Manectric, Celebi, Talonflame, etc. They all get pursuit-trapped or KO'd.
Meanwhile, Specs Keldeo handles fat ground-types and certain walls (Mega Sab/ Clef) that ScarfTar loses to and checks Scizor/Azu from spamming their priority moves. It helps break down walls so ScarfTar can clean later in the game.
Note that both lose to the likes of Azu, M-Alt, M-Lop, and certain coverage moves from the above-mentioned pokemon they check, so this duo can often be prediction-reliant.
