Why all of a sudden an A+Rank mon must be uncheckable/uncounterable? Of course gyarados has problems with rotom-w, ferrothorn and subtoxicroak which are its biggest counters, theres no denial. What pushes gyarados to A+Rank is its ability to sweep easily with excellent coverage, rain boosted stab while avoiding revenge killers with substitute and being downright unstoppable once moxie boosts get going. Stop saying that x scarfer revenge kills gyarados. Thats not what happens since setuping a sub in something like what Lunatic Lies mentioned is the first thing its going to do:
Scizor, CC locked Terrakion, Surf/SS Keldeo, Draco locked Latios, Celebi, Volcarona, Spec D Jirachi, Toxicroak, Non-Specs Politoed, Breloom (When running Intimidate), Donphan, EQ or Fire move locked Chomp and SR Chomp with Dragon Claw (With Intimidate), Bulk Up Conk, Gastrodon, Gliscor, Heatran, Infernape lacking Stone Edge, Landorus without Psychic, Tentacruel, and Vaporeon lacking Roar
Gyarados needs nothing more than one single opportunity to destroy teams and there are very few answers for it. Its one of the best sweepers atm boasting excellent bulk, power, typing and the ability to setup on several threats. I seriously cant argue more than this. Its been already said multiple times and if you dont want to agree theres literally nothing more that can be said.
