When I look at that chart, what I see is the need for a fast Poison/Ground type Special Attacker

That WOULD make for a good competitive Pokémon

It'd have to have a good movepool, stats, and ability, too

So basically everything else needs to be good

Passing speed with another stat boosted is banned. Just speed is fine.

What I don't understand is why BP is banned from UU, with or without boosts.

The "UU Council" ultimately decided that it wasn't worth keeping dry passing at the cost of constant highly-specific Baton Pass related bans.
No matter how many clauses they added, some dumb shit always arose to make Baton Pass teams stupid as hell, so they said fuck it and banned it outright.

I can't say I blame them, because increasingly specific bans were what caused the Weather Wars in Gen V.

Baton Pass touched UU at their naughty place during Gen VI. They got tired of it after banning a bunch of other stuff that abused BP and decided to just ban Baton Pass completely.

Mega Nidoking
Sheer Force
+50 Sp. Attack
+50 Speed
Looks like a Brachydios with laser cannons on its forelimbs and head instead of that slime shit, and a rocket for a tail.
Happy?

Mega Pokémon cannot hold items. How much stronger than regular Nidoking would it really be without the Life Orb?

The Speed would still be a huge boost though.

they are pushing for physical nidoking, not only did it get +10 attack in gen 6, it got headsmash as well as being most famous for horndrill and to a lesser degree mega horn
realistically, its going to get something that boosts horn moves and like +30 physical

Tyranitar is significantly older and never dropped either despite having shit speed and one of the worst type combos in the game, so why does Garchomp surprise you?

tyranitar (especially under sandstorm) is really fucking bulky and even though its shit defensively, Dark/Rock is really powerful offensively.

I've personally seen some crazy shit with assault vest tyranitar, believe it or not.

I have Tyranitar as my lead and I've used a specially defensive spread before, but right now I'm using a physically defensive one. Even without investment it still takes special hits under Sandstorm and the physical investment gives it amazing mixed bulk.
It's especially great with Ice Beam because fuck Lando.
