Tyranitar @ Choice Band
Ability: Sand Stream
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Knock Off
- Stone Edge
- Earthquake
- Ice Punch

The fallen king of OU reigns supreme in UU! Choice Band Tyranitar is one of UU's premier wallbreakers and can come in on threats such as Latios and Hydreigon. Earthquake hits foes that resist its STAB moves, such as Cobalion and Tinkaton, while Ice Punch shreds Hydrapple and is more reliable than Stone Edge against Mandibuzz and Iron Jugulis. Tera Dark enhances Knock Off's damage output, letting it 2HKO itemless Toxapex, and removes Tyranitar's Rock typing, improving its matchups against Metagross, Greninja, and Donphan. Tyranitar fits on a variety of teams such as balance and sand, using the sand it summons to further chip opposing Pokemon. Since Tyranitar does not want to switch in directly, Flip Turn from Keldeo, Chilly Reception from Slowking, and U-turn from Scizor and Lokix can bring it in safely. Entry hazards also wear Tyranitar down, making Donphan and Excadrill appreciated teammates. Excadrill in particular can use Tyranitar's sand to potentially sweep. Tyranitar struggles against Fighting-types and Pokemon with Fighting-type coverage such as Conkeldurr, Keldeo, and Weavile, so answers to these Pokemon like Slither Wing, Clodsire, and Skarmory are greatly appreciated.

The fallen king of OU reigns supreme in UU! Choice Band Tyranitar is one of UU's premier wallbreakers, being able to come in on threats such as Latios and Hydreigon to wallbreak. Earthquake hits foes that resist its STAB moves, such as Keldeo (coba is more important imo) and Tinkaton, while Ice Punch is used to shred Hydrapple and is a more reliable move than Stone Edge against Mandibuzz and Iron Jugulis. Tera Dark removes Tyranitar's Rock typing, which improves matchups against Metagross, Greninja, and Donphan. (not why you tera dark, important thing is that is the raw damage from Knock Off, 252+ Atk Choice Band Tera Dark Tyranitar Stone Edge vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Toxapex: 147-174 (48.3 - 57.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after sandstorm damage two shotting itemless pex is huge) Tyranitar best fits on a variety of teams such as Balance and Sand as a wallbreaker that can use the Sandstorm it summons to further chip down opposing Pokemon. Tyranitar does not want to switch in directly, so pivots such as Flip Turn Keldeo, Chilly Reception Slowking, and U-turn from Scizor and Lokix can bring Tyranitar safely onto the field. It is also worn down by entry hazards, so teammates such as Donphan and Excadrill are appreciated. (MENTION SAND RUSH DRILL!!!) Conkeldurr (??? did u mean ttar lol) struggles against Fighting-types and Pokemon with Fighting-type coverage such as Conkeldurr, Keldeo, and Weavile, so answers to these Pokemon such as Slither Wing, Clodsire, and Skarmory are greatly appreciated.

I think there was a formating mishap at "...itemless Toxapex, and removes..." as when I reply to it, it says "...itemless Toxapex, and removes..."
Idk if this is relevant, saw this when trying to translate it and thought it may cause issues later

thank you! fixed :Floette-Mega:
