Landorus-T is a powerful tool for Ground teams due to the multiple roles it compresses; it offers a Ground immunity, can check physical attackers such as Choice Scarf Zarude with Intimidate, sets Gravity, and is a powerful setup sweeper with Swords Dance. Superpower allows it to nail Dark-type Pokemon such as Hydreigon and Zarude while being able to remove defensive checks such as Ferrothorn after a Swords Dance boost. Gravity removes immunity to Ground-type attacks, allowing Landorus-T to target traditional checks to the type such as Skarmory and Celesteela, preventing them from walling the team. This allows Ground-type attacks to go virtually unchecked, supporting other Pokemon on the team as well such as Excadrill and Garchomp. Nidoking can be used on teams without Superpower to help handle the Steel matchup better. Garchomp is useful in matchups such as Water and Flying, taking on threats like Urshifu-R and Zapdos. Choice Scarf Diggersby can be used to pivot in Landorus-T with U-turn, since Landorus-T is taking on the role of a wallbreaker with this set.

Mention scarf zarude for the stuff it can check with intimidate, cb and bulk up beat it

Removing Mamoswine and the water immunities and talk Garchomp who is a breaker with better speed to assist Lando t in matchups such as water and flying as well as scarf diggersby since u turn is valuable as a scarfer when Lando t is taking on a breaking role.

Qc 1/1
