  • when other items are more popular to run than your mega stone you got a problem gamefreak
    mega tyranitar does pretty much the same thing as regular ttar i guess dragon dance sets are maybe better with the increase in speed
    at least the pokemon looks cool

    Tyranitar somehow gets faster when mega evolving while garchomp gets slow...make it make sense gamefreak

      Simple, Garchomp's limbs get tougher but more stiff... so it's harder for it to move.
      But T-tar's reaction time improves when it's chest burst open and it's nerves are more free...

      Funny isn’t it, even if they made Mega Chomp Faster, let’s say like 120 or 130 speed from its Sp Attack it would gain from mega evolving to its speed- so 102-122 or 132 speed. It would be faster now sure but I don’t think it’ll be better than regular chomp if it used Choice scarf. But you can use SD sets with Scale shot however but you’ll lose out on loaded dice. But I do think that’s a worthy trade

    This mega was... interesting. While it wasn't worse than base Tyranitar, it also wasn't a complete upgrade. Like it didn't feel like Tyranitar really needed it to succeed in OU, it was still good without the mega. This is one of those rare cases, where both forms are viable. But for Mega Tyranitar you will have to ask yourself if is this worth your mega slot or is there something that could benefit much more from mega evolving

      @@Ropalme1914 I have to disagree here, I really don't think it was a complete upgrade. I mean yes, Mega Ttar was able to pull off DDance Sets, which base Ttar struggled with back in Gen 7, but you can't slap an Assault Vest on Mega Ttar to turn it into a specially defensive monster to check special attackers like with normal Ttar. Thats the problem with the mega stone here in this case, you can't run another item. If you want to use Ttar as a check for special attackers you have to use the Assault Vest or maybe Leftovers and not the mega stone. So I wouldn't say you would always want to use the mega stone, because there are sets that Mega Ttar can't run, while the opposite is also true for normal Ttar

Give me that , i view assault vest for him more like a nerf Mega Tyranitar, a solution to count him in your team even if you alr have a mega , and the fact he can just replace any bulky pokemon you'l only use for stealth rocks and stall is just the icing on the cake , but afterall it's just a matter of preferences and what sacrifices you can do to play him

    Anyway, Tyranitar was already a monster, so what did they do? Made it even bulkier, faster, stronger, better.
    Able to cancel weather battles by simply entering thanks to Sand Stream remaining, that same sand raising its special defense, able to buff its speed and outrageous attack with Ddance, a near unkillable Stealth Rock user and Spinblock denier with Crunch or Pursuit, an impressive special attack able to catch counters off guard, and my favorite trait being it can scare away Primal Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, and Dusk Mane, and ruins Lunala and Dawn Wings.
    All packed into a walking hunk of angry kaiju so in pain and close to death that only its rage is known. I would wager if it fell from the sky, it would recreate the Chixulub impact.
