Tiering Lead

Overview
########
  • With Rock Head it has a recoilless Head Smash
  • Has a attack stat
  • Very diverse movepool
  • Typing is a Double-Edged sword, weak to common priority, but some good resistances
Dragon Dance
########
name: Dragon Dance
move 1: Dragon Dance
move 2: Head Smash
move 3: Outrage
move 4: Earthquake / Superpower / Crunch
ability: Rock Head
item: Lum Berry / Life Orb
evs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
nature: Jolly / Adamant

Moves
========
  • Dragon Dance is a great boosting move that boosts both its Attack and Speed, allowing Tyrantrum to reach high levels with its attack and outpace most of the metagame
  • Head Smash becomes an extremely strong attack with no downsides, and hits even harder after a Dragon Dance boost or two
  • Outrage is a great secondary STAB that hits extremely hard, but Dragon Claw can also be used if you do not want to be locked into Outrage, but the damage output is noticeable
  • The last slot is for coverage, both Earthquake and Superpower can be used for hitting Steel types, which resist both STABs, and Crunch can be used to hit certain pokemon like Bronzong
Set Details
========
  • Lum Berry can be used to heal off a Burn or Toxic which can severely cripple Tyrantrum, shortening its life span or decreasing its damage output
  • Life Orb can be used for hitting even harder, but the recoil does bring down its lifespan, and makes it weaker to priority and status
  • EVs are made to optimize damage output and speed, as with 252 Atk it can hit as hard as possible, and 252 Spe can be used to outpace most of the tier after a Dragon Dance Boost
  • Adamant can be used to increase damage output, but Jolly can be used to outspeed <<pokemon here>>

Hey dude, just wanted to pop in and say that the ability that got released for Tyrantrum was Rock Head not Reckless. I'm not sure if you meant Rock Head and got the names mixed up or if you got Emboar and Tyrantrum confused for a second, but i thought i'd point that out so you can fix it before it gets to QC :).

Just something I noticed right off the bat, in the moves description for the Choice Scarf set it reads that Superpower hits "extremely hard after the Band Boost"; I think you got it confused with the Choice Band description.
