After many generations of living in OU, Tyranitar has finally been scared out of its residence by the new gen 9 mons and currently resides in UU. Since it's down here, I thought it'd be nice to pair it up with its good old pal Salamence, while also trying out a few mons that I'm unfamiliar with.
Tyrant
Tyrant was originally DD, but I found it hard to find setup oppertunities and its speed after a DD is underwhelming, so I went for a CB set instead. The 4th move could be Assurance instead, but I keep finding myself using it like Gen 4 Payback (2x power on a switchin) so I opted for Ice Punch to hit Donphan. Tera Rock gives it a strong STAB without losing the SpD boost in Sand, but do remember to pray before clicking Stone Edge.
Menace
Menace is the standard Special boots set, not much else to add here. I honestly didn't think it would run SpAtk sets (tbh didn't care about it last month) but Hurricanes and Dracos coming off 110 SpA is nothing to scoff at. EV spread is from
Lavern's post on UU cores.
Bruh
Bruh is a goated PhysDef wall ngl. This set is again from
Lavern's post, which also prompted me to switch from Slowking to this champ. Bruh checks a bunch of physical threats and chips them with Rocky Helmet. It also deletes Maushold, which I wanted to single out because that's really funny. While Body Press can no longer hit Baxcalibur, it's still useful for hitting mons like Bisharp (btw don't setup bish in front of Bruh you'll regret it). From my experience, it's only really scared of Super Fimp Bros (Slither & Lokix), but Menace can switch in menacingly and deal with them for a bit.
Bonk
Typical SpDef Bonk, you know her, you love her, nuff said.
Tumblr
I was hesitant to use Tumblr mostly due to its seemingly awful bulk (55/70/70 is NOT good), but holy moly this thing's got utility. Spiker + spinner + spinblocker in one is great and with enough investment it can take on spinners decently. Just don't Strength Sap a Defiant mon and don't let it tank an Iron Jugulis Dank Pulse (pun intended and no i'm not sorry) and you're good to go.
Banksy
Banksy is the fast pivot of the team, I'd usually lead with either it or Bonk depending on whether I want turn 1 rocks. Prankster Parting Shot can feel really spammable but you'll have to look out for Defiant mons and Dark-Types. Taunt can be replaced with Encore, but I like to deny rocks whenever possible. Do note that Whiscash ignores Taunt, so don't waste your time with it if you ever encounter one.
Overall I'd say the team is pretty good, it got me my first room tournament win (which why I decided to submit this team). Tyrant has been a bit underwhelming, but I probs just have to pray harder when I click Stone Edge. Super Fimp Bros and Gengar threatens the team, but as long as you keep their respective checks healthy they shouldn't be a huge problem. Anyways that's my submission, bye~
