because they're not really fossil pokemon
they're pokemon created from dna within the fossils and rock pokemon dna.

So the inspirations for Rock types would be more diverse rather than being animated minerals or animals covered in rocks.

Ground Kill.

Ice Ground is horrifying. Most SE's of any 2 type combination.

I'd personally run Edge Quake and Fang Bolt Beam to rip everything's ass asunder.

Daily reminder that Tyrantrum is complete shit and that it hits about as hard a damp napkin even with Adamant nature and full attack EV investment and then dies to everything.

Fangs are absolutely worthless, it might make UU if it's HA ever gets released.

EQ doesn't make contact, and forcing a switch to a predictable mon like Ferrothorn is more of a good thing than a bad one.

All builds of all pokemon have a weakness.

I'm sure your 6IV Tyrantrum totally wrecked the kids you've been facing online with 0IV starters and shit they've just caught, that doesn't make it usable hun, sorry.

I dont use it, but I imagine I'd go with something like this

Tyrantrum (F) @ Life Orb
Ability: Rock Head
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Head Smash
- Earthquake
- Fire Fang
>>17217256
>implying nonstab eq would do anything to thorn

252+ Atk Tyrantrum Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Ferrothorn: 68-81 (19.3 - 23%) -- possible 5HKO

When a set has a huge glaring weakness to a pokemon as commonly seen as thorn, it has a problem. Especially if it has a way to work around it.

252+ Atk Strong Jaw Tyrantrum Fire Fang vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Ferrothorn: 264-312 (75 - 88.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

it does; Ice/Ground has 5 (Grass/Water/Fire/Stee/Fighting), Grass/Psychic has 7 (Fire/Ice/Bug/Dark/Flying/Poison/Ghost)
Rock/Psychic would have 7 too if Solrock and Lunatone didn't have Levitate (Ghost/Bug/Dark/Steel/Water/Ground/Grass)

Ice/Ground is super effective against 407 pokemon, neutral against 365 pokemon, and resisted by 2 pokemon: Shedinja and Sirskit

Psychic/Grass is super effective against 246 pokemon, neutral against 461, and resisted by 67 including Shedinja

Ice/Ground has the most SE's by a substantial margin, and only Ghost/Fighting is comparable to it in terms of overall coverage.

I haven't had trouble using it, in fact it's won every battle I've put it in, it just isn't good.

It is countered by every specially oriented pokemon in existence. 59 SpD with 71 Spe means it's getting one shot before it has a chance to 2HKO at best.

If it gets one shotted, the user failed somewhere. I've seen plenty of good Tyrantrum users. It's not made to be in battle forever. It goes in and does as much damage as possible before fainting. Kinda like Greninja.

This is what I'm thinking
Tyrantrum @ Lifeorb
Ability: Strong Jaw
Nature: Adamant or Jolly, not sure which is better
Earthquake
Fire Fang
Ice Fang
Crunch

Combine this with a scolipede team support set. Get some speed boosts, and hopefully a swords dance.
