This monster has long earned a reputation as one of the strongest in the game, thanks to its characteristics, versatility, and appearance that makes all who stand in the fighter’s way tremble. But to skillfully use this hero in a daring battle, you need to understand how the Pokémon operates, where to find the creature, and how to leverage its strengths.
Description

This Pokémon belongs to the Rock and Dark types, which gives both advantages and disadvantages. It represents a powerful beast, resembling a giant armored dinosaur, ready to crush everything in its path. The fearsome look and size match its strength. With such an ally on your team, any trainer will feel more confident.
Catching Tyranitar in the wild is no easy task. The beast is mostly obtained through evolution from Pupitar, which evolves from Larvitar.
Larvitar is quite rare but can occasionally be found in the wild, especially during special events or in 10-kilometer eggs. It’s important to stay alert during Community Day when the chance to catch this pet significantly increases.

Among the character's best moves are:
⭐️ Fast Move: Smack Down or Bite. These allow powerful hits on enemies, depending on the opponent’s type.
⭐️ Charged Move: Players should choose between Stone Edge, Crunch, or even Fire Blast. It’s best to base your choice on your strategy to avoid miscalculating.
⭐️ Smack Down + Stone Edge is a classic combination for battling Flying and Fire types, while Bite + Crunch is effective against Psychic and Ghost enemies.
Strengths and weaknesses

As I mentioned above, although the Pokémon has a dual type, it is not invincible, like any other creature in this universe. Let’s look at what players need to know before adding Tyranitar to their team.
Advantages
- Flying and Fire opponents will be crushed by its Rock attacks.
- Psychic and Ghost Pokémon will also not withstand Dark attacks, which is why Tyranitar is often used in raids against Mewtwo or Giratina.
- It is resistant to Normal, Flying, Poison, Ghost, Fire, Dark, and Psychic attacks, making the character an excellent defender in games and raids.
Disadvantages
Despite its power, Tyranitar has a few Achilles' heels. It is extremely vulnerable to Fighting type attacks, taking 256% damage! Fighters like Machamp or Lucario can cause serious trouble for the warrior.

Its other weak points include Water, Grass, Ground, Bug, Fairy, and Steel types. This doesn’t mean the character will fall immediately in battle, but such opponents can cause the hero some discomfort.
Tyranitar is an excellent choice for trainers looking for a versatile and powerful fighter. Its strengths allow it to effectively handle many types of enemies, and its weaknesses can be compensated for with the right tactics and selection of attacks.
