Tyranitar

Tyranitar has agelessly established itself as a metagame staple in generation 8 OverUsed. Its defensive profile is more valuable than ever with its ability to check some of the metagame's top threats, such as Heatran and Dragapult, while its offensive capabilities when equipped with a Choice Band are desirable for punching through the tier's bulky structures. Additionally, Sand Stream is a fantastic ability that not only enables sand sweepers like Sand Rush Excadrill but also disrupts other weather teams, such as hail from Alolan Ninetales and rain from Pelipper. However, Tyranitar's lack of reliable recovery and numerous type weaknesses make it vulnerable to being worn down over the course of a match, with its low Speed compounding issues, as it moves last more often than not.
