What is Garchomp?
1.
the most badass 4th generation pokemon. Seriously, he is a f***ing land shark, although he's a dragon and ground type.

2.
Arguably the best non-uber Pokemon in the game. The standard Garchomp moveset is:
Garchomp @ Yache Berry
Nature: Adamant/Jolly
EVs: 255 Atk/255 Spe
- Dragon Claw/Outrage
- Earthquake
- Swords Dance
- Fire Fang
With just one swords dance, this Pokemon is capable of OHKOing the vast majority of Pokemon and 2HKOing the rest of them. He has one of the highest attack stats of non-ubers and just enough speed to outrun Pokemon like Salamence, as well as a HP stat that is well above average. He only has two weakness and with a Yache berry, he can even overcome (in many cases) his 4x weakness to ice attacks. If you do not have a reliable Garchomp counter in your team, be prepared to lose a lot of matches, as it is, according to Smogon, the most overused Pokemon in the game. There has even been some debate as to whether he should be considered uber, as he really is that good.
Garchomp is sent out...
"Oh shit, not another Garchomp."
