Tyrantrum or Salamence?

In the VGC 15 setting who would be better? Tyrantrum or Salamence? Both synergize with my team well so typing is not an issue. Both have their merits.

Salamence @ Yache Berry (Life Orb is already being used)Ability: Intimidate252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HPJolly NatureEarthquakeDragon ClawRock SlideProtect

or

Tyrantrum @ Choice ScarfAbility: Rock Head30 HP, 252 Attack, 196 SpeedJolly NatureEarthquakeHead SmashDragon ClawPoison Fang

My team has several special attackers so I want a physical powerhouse. I want earthquake, due to the fact I have a flying type and a levitate user. So which one would be better? Salamence has intimidate, which is always useful. He also has higher base stats, but does not get STAB on most of his moves. Tyrantrum gets STAB head smash, no recoil, making it one of the best moves. Also gains poison fang, which badly poisons the opposing Pokemon 50% of the time, making like a toxic on steroids, as it also does decent damage. Furthermore poison acts as a fairy counter.

Any help would be appreciated!

Salamence, unless the choice scarf is changed for tyrantrum (Yet would be too slow then).This vgc15 has already shown many defensive teams, including Clefairy eviolite, and getting locked into dragon claw would allow set ups and an easy victory over you.

If you don’t have a mega, Salamence would be great there. It has good sweeping potential and Dragon Dance will help you delete most of the metagame with a stab frustration or double edge. You can run Earthquake for coverage and protect in the last slot.

If I knew your whole team I could give you a better analysis.

Cheers,
