strategy: is to set up with spikes, stealth rock, sandstorm and to use u-turn as often as i can. iin other words the strrategy is to cause and do as much small, unavoidable damage as possible and go in for an easy sweep at the end. please enjoy!

my go to guy with fire and water types, this was originally kingdra but i wanted a pokemon that wasnt hit by sandstorm and i rememberred how well the scipert team worked last time i used it. i am thinking of using avalanche over ice punch becuase swampert isnt that fast and avalanche does more damage is its hit which can be a plus against the dreaded grass types [erhem... celebi]

this is the pokemon i generally send out after ambipom because of sandstream so i took this early game advantage and gave it stealthrock . i chose adamant nature becuase it cant out speed a whole lot and well, you dont come across too many defensive tyranitars mainly because of its ''weak'' 404 max atk

the third lead in my team, with spikes, stealthrock and sandstorm comming down on my opponent . my oppositions going to have a hard time not having 25% of their hp gone before they attack and that just saying that the damage is neutral. and of course when my opponent is weak enough or come up against a grass type [erhem.... celebi] i can go in for the kill with brave bird and all will be better with a single roost.

is mainly used for u-turn everytime i change pokemon but its full-time job is to be a great late game sweeper. i chose a choice item [and people who read my last rmt forum know i dont like using choice items] becuase i wanted to cause as much damage as possible with u-turn. this slot was originally filled with flygon but because of better typing scizor was used

the butter to tyranitars bread, of course this had to be in the team if ttar was in it but it was one of the hardest pokemon to pick because of all the different moves and movesets it can have on top of the different ev's and stats it can have and im still not sure about it. its mainly used as a ttar counter counter

well to pick this baby i needed a special attacker and since scizor brings out fire attacks like theres no tommorow heatrans perfectly suited to deal with them. and well since the other option is rotom, heatran having steel type as its second type means it wont take any form of sandstorm damage. ill be using the swamzoran [swampert scizor heatran] combo in the future.
thank you for reading. pictures will come shortly.
