OK, I think this has to do with RMTing, so I'll ask it here.
So mods plz close/move this if it's in the wrong section.
What's boah?
I've heard of it before, but I don't know what it is.

Thanx in advance!

Competitive RMT is <-- that-a-way.

Anyways...

Tyranitar (M) @ Leftovers ** Boah
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 HP / 68 Spd / 190 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Crunch
- Focus Punch
- Substitute
- Thunderbolt

It's used only for competitive purposes, hence its uselessness in-game.

If you use that moveset and EV-spread on a tyranitar it's a "Tyraniboah"

If you wanna know why it was called boah, ask Jumpman16 or chaos.

That moveset just make sit a boah, its called a tyraniboah when it has the move set and evs.

Why does curse on a snorlax make it a curselax?

Why does Baton Pass/Calm Mind on an espeon make it espyjump?

Why does endure and reversal make heracross endrevvalcross?

Beacuse the of the moves it has.

ohhh, so it's just another RMT name like CBgross or the ones you mentioned. I just want to know what the word boah has to do with those particular moves.

Because boahtars have that moveset.

in short, it is because it is.

the cool things about tautologies is that they don't need a reason, other than themself. saying "boah is that moveset because having those moves makes it a boah" is like saying "whatever happens, happens." you can't actually get anything from it, but it can't possibly be wrong.

IIRC, the reason that set became popular was as a way of killing skarmbliss. T-bolt for skarm, and 101 subs and huge attack focus punch for blissey.

Arriving glacially.
No, it is becuz boah means something like "viper" or "snake" in German. The guy who made the moveset wanted it to remind him of something powerful so he name it Tyraniboah
