>Moves
Explosion is important because it provides teammates with a free switch-in while preventing slower Pokemon's attempts to use Defog or Rapid Spin, and its ability to put significant dents into an opposing Pokemon is a useful asset for the hyper offensive teams that this set is typically used on. Rock Tomb gives Landorus-T the ability to keep Stealth Rock up against Tornadus-T, which is very important for hyper offensive teams. Alternatively, Swords Dance can be used to allow Landorus-T to put Mega Sableye, which can bounce its Stealth Rock back, under significant pressure. Hidden Power Ice is an alternative option that allows Landorus-T to pressure opposing Landorus-T and Defog Gliscor in order to gain the hazard advantage without having to use Explosion.
>Set Details
If Landorus-T uses Hidden Power Ice, Naive is preferred to improve Landorus-T's matchup versus Defog Gliscor. Focus Sash is important to ensure that Landorus-T always survives the first turn to set up Stealth Rock versus faster Pokemon.
