Dragon Dance Tyranitar is an underrated monster, easily capable of tearing through most teams. With one Dragon Dance, Tyranitar outpaces all unboosted pokemon and some slow scarf users. Of course Dragon Dance is a key move here, allowing an attack and speed boost. Crunch acts as your main attack and only stab as Stone Edge isnt really needed in terms of coverage like most of the other moves listed and now Crunch hits steels for neutral plus its only 20 base less. Ice Punch is for bulky grounds, namely Landorus, as well as dragons like Garchomp. Ice Punch can be swapped for Stone Edge, but then you need to weaken/KO more before Tyranitar can really do its job. Earthquake rounds off the set for super effective damage to threats like Heatran and Excadrill. Again this can be changed for Stone Edge to hit threats like Charizard harder.
