Strategy & play

How Tyranitar ex δ plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Its main attack (Hyper Claws) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Needs Lightning Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Lightning type, weak to Grass ×2 — a Grass attacker doing ≥75 effectively one-shots it.
  • A two-prize Pokémon — each KO gives the opponent 2 Prizes, so a single bad trade can lose the race. Back it with single-prize attackers.
  • Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.
  • A Stage 2 — without Rare Candy you lose ~2 turns setting it up, and it’s gust-bait before it’s online (you must draw Pupitar first).

How to beat Tyranitar ex δ

  • Exploit its Grass weakness — ≥75 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
