Description Tyrantrum by far have to be among one of my favorite Pocket Monsters of all time. A feathered "albeit half-arse" Tyrannosaur!!!? YES PLEASE!!! "checks the abilities" Very interesting ones at that. Strong Jaw, an ability that grants 50% boosts to Bite, Crunch, and the elemental fangs. which then gives said moves pseudo-stab damage levels in addition to giving it great coverage... WANT... Then there's it's hidden ability Rock Head... OOooo It learns Head Smash? Spamming No recoil stab moves that deal 220 BASE damage with a proper ability and IV's... YES PLEASE "Even though it is unobtainable at the moment as Tyrunt is not a Friend Safari Pokemon" I will say though that giving it Dragon typing, a relatively low speed and special defence, the nerf of weather, and a lack of biting moves to abuse strong jaw; I will say that Tyrantrum has a very good chance of reaching possibly UU-OU borderline or low OU on the smogon ladder. In-game, my female Tyrantrum, named Gertrude, is relatively frail due to her nature and low HP EV's. She literally tears apart anything she outspeeds.Β

In all actuality, Tyrantrum gets all the elemental fangs (andΒ  poison fang) via breeding. But unnfortunately it has a special defence 1 point lower than aggrons and a lack luster base 75 speed. But after on dragon dance things are gonna get swept!

While yes that's true, but It's pretty much understood that a 200+ base power attack of stab rock headed head smash will blow any strong jaw set's damage output right out of the water. 'Now if only Krookodiles got a 10 base speed bonus instead of Defense and switched the Hidden ability of anger point to strong jaw..."

Some pokemon benefited from that stat boost...others didn't. Like azumarill for instance. Why did it need 10 points in a stat it dosen't use? Also what they did to krookodile and chandelure is a shame. One had the opportunity to get a wonderful coverage ability and the other lost a great ability. I swear gamefreak has a ton of trolls working for them.

The pains of competitive battling, and the Krooked croc really needed that speed too, not to mention a 180 base power crunch backing it up when you calculate the "double stab" of stab and strong jaw.

It really would have made up for his lacking defenses.

Honestly the only bad thing I can think of with Strong Jaw Krookodile is loosing it's moxie boost revenge role.

While that is a loss. It would much rather the fangs' coverage.

I chose the other fossil. Refrigerate may seem like a worthless ability to some people but I see it as an opportunity!

Like Hidden Power! It's classified as a normal move with 60 base power, which on a normal type would end up making it base 90 (the damage is calculated before it actually changes types). But with refrigerate, it turns all normal moves into ice moves! Despite it only learning around 5 normal type moves, there are TONS of TMs that are normal moves that it can learn

Actually, Hidden Power's typing is determined by it's IV's which takes priority over refrigerate.... But yes, Overall Aurorus is the better fossil on paper this gen.

they changed it 6th gen. It's not a static 60 power

On bulbapedia it states, "Hidden Power's base power is now 60, and like in previous generations, its type is determined by the user'sΒ IVs . A Fairy-type Hidden Power is not obtainable."

I know, but it only becomes that type after taking the same-type value of 60 Normal. At least, that's how I believe it is
