Mega Tyranitar vs Mega Garchomp?

So, which is better? Im talking sweeping, defences, offences, ect. Right now Im using this team:Empoleon, Trevenant, Togekiss, Snorlax, Conkeldurr.

I cant list their sets yet, but that shouldnt be that important.

So which is better? Mega Garchomp or Mega Tyranitar?

They are at first glance equal as they are both pseudos and have the same base stat totals (BST).

Mega TyranitarAbility: Sand StreamHP – 100Atk – 164Def – 150SpA – 95SpD – 120Spe – 71

I have two move sets for him. First is the standard physical tank.

Tyranitar@ TyranitariteSand Stream | Adamant / Jolly248 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpeStone Edge– Good power but not the best accuracy. Total of 150 BP with STAB.Crunch– STAB. Decent power, useful coverage excellent accuracy. Total of 120 BP with STAB..Iron Tail– Deals with Fairies. Good power, but unreliable accuracy.Dragon Dance– Why does he have this and Flygon doesn’t? Boosts already high Attack and middling Speed to monstrous levels.252 attack 126 defence 126 special defence 4 HP

The second set is a surprise Special set.

Tyranitar@ TyrantariteSand Stream | Calm252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 AtkAncient Power– Low power, but good accuracy, STAB and a lucky chance to increase all stats. Total BP of 90 with STAB.Dark Pulse– Useful coverage, STAB, medium power, perfect accuracy and a chance to flinch. Total BP of 120 with STAB.Ice Beam– Excellent coverage. Medium power, small freeze chance and perfect accuracy.Earthquake– Surprise attack and Tyranitar’s only physical attack.

Mega Garchomp

Now for Garchomp!

Ability: Sand ForceHP – 108Atk – 170Def – 115SpA – 120SpD – 95Spe – 92

I want to put so many sets but I will only put two.

Garchomp@ GarchompiteSand Force | Adamant252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HPEarthquake– Awesome power and accuracy and is just godly when you factor in Sand Force and STAB. Total BP of 150, not including Sand Force.Sandstorm– Lets you nab the Sand Force boost.Dragon Claw– STAB and good accuracy. Total BP of 120.Crunch– Medium power, useful coverage and good accuracy.

Next is a trick set.[EDITOR’S NOTE: The following set is banned on Smogon, but for WiFi/in-game it is fine.]

Garchomp@ GarchompiteSand Force | Impish252 HP / 252 Def / 4 AtkSandstorm– Used to set up Sand Force.Swagger– Omg so annoying!Sand Attack– Nothing better than lowering accuracy.Earthquake– It’s just godly.

Overall, Mega Garchomp wins by 4 points, but both are good in there own respects.It’s all up to you and your opinion.As for which one for your team, I would suggest Mega Garchom because most of your teammates are already tanky and you need some heavy offense.

As your team is already fairly defensive, I would goGarchomp.

Mega Garchomp thrives in the sand, getting a 30% boost to his rock, steel, and most importantly, ground type moves. Because of this, I suggest you add a Pokemon with the abilitySand Streamand holding asmooth rock. Good Pokemon for this are eitherHippowdonor normalTyranitar.
