In-Depth Analysis
Tyranitar totals 600 across its base stats, profiling as a slow bruiser that trades speed for raw hitting power. Lean on its Attack (134) when planning sets, and cover for its weaker Speed (61).
Its Rock, Dark typing leaves Tyranitar with 7 weaknesses against 6 resistances and 1 full immunity. Watch out for Fighting moves in particular — they land for 4× damage. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 6 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Tyranitar a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +3 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
