Tyranitar’s passive ability is a bit interesting. The three different evolutionary stages of Tyranitar, which has three different passive abilities.

  • Guts (Pupitar): When the Pokémon takes a certain amount of damage, its Attack increases for a short time. This ability goes on cooldown after being activated.
  • Shed your skin (Larvitaro): When the Pokémon takes a certain amount of damage, all of its status conditions are canceled and it is granted a shield. This ability goes on cooldown after being activated.
  • Sand Stream (Tyranitar): The ability summons a sandstorm around Tyranitar when he uses a move. This sandstorm boosts Pokemon’s Def. and sp. def. and it also inflicts damage on the opposition.

Skill 1- Bite (Melee)

This dark-type move deals damage to the designated opposition. Additionally, this move can also stun an opposition, if they have HP below a certain amount. Additionally, he could be stunned if Bite deals enough damage to the opponent at once.

Skill 1 Choices at level 5

At level 5, Bite can be upgraded to one of these 2 moves:

Dark impulse Stone edge
A dark type move releases a dark mist towards the opponent with a sweeping horizontal movement. If the move hits an enemy with low damage, it still stuns.

Repetitive hits on the same opponent with this move increase the damage dealt. This move can form a combo with Ability 2 (Ancient Power) where the player can ignore the defense and the shield if the opposition for a longer period of time, due to the increased puncture force.

The Rock-type move deals damage to the opponent, in AoE. This move deals more damage the closer the enemy is to Tyranitar. This move can be used 3 times within a set time, with the AoE expanding each time it is used.

Skill 2 – Polish rock (dash)

This Rock-type move causes the player to run in any direction, while also dealing damage to any Pokémon it hits along the way. In the event that it hits an enemy, the player’s attack stat increases for a short time.

Skill choices at level 9

At level 9, when the Pokémon is fully evolved, Rock Polish can be empowered in the following moves:

Ancient power Sand tomb
A Rock-type move charges up power before releasing a shockwave. The wave deals damage to opponents and leaves them stunned. While charging, the user’s movement speed increases, gains a shield, and becomes immune to obstacles.

If the wave hits an enemy, the user’s piercing force increases and they can ignore the enemy’s defense and shields to deal damage. If the move hits an opponent, another wave is released, which reduces the opponent’s movement speed and deals damage.

After hitting, this second shockwave grants another shield to the user. The strength of the shield is proportional to the number of opponents hit by the second wave at a time, with a maximum of 3.

This Ground-type move causes the user to move in a designated direction in a single leap, dealing damage to enemies it hits while jumping and leaving them stunned. Upon landing, a cloud of dust surrounds the user and enemies within the AoE take damage and loss of movement speed if the dust hits.

Also, if this move is used again while the cloud is still there, it draws enemies closer to the user. Finally, during the entire move, the player takes reduced damage and ignores the defense and shield effects of the opposing Pokemon.

Unite Move – Tyrannical Fury (Buff)

This move has the use of breaking out with rage and going on a rampage. The move increases the user’s movement speed for a short time, but if he is hit by an obstacle move, his speed becomes normal, faster than usual. During the rampage, the basic attack style changes and deals excessive amounts of damage with each basic attack (stomp). Finally, if the enemy has HP below a certain level and is hit with such a simple attack, they are immediately eliminated.

Game Tips on Pokémon Unite Tyranitar

Tyranitar may be a little short on mobility, but it has high stamina, even at the lowest levels. Once a Tyranitar is leveled up, it can also act as an armored defender. It can be used as a solo lure, while the others quickly attack the other open goal zones. Our Pokémon Unite Tyranitar guide includes the perfect game plan for the leave early and late on occasion Unite battles.

Early play

Pupitar doesn’t get his first skill boost, until Lv. 5. Rock Polish can be used for a similar purpose as an eject button, while also inflicting damage. However, Pupitar may be a Pokémon that is a bit too close or slow to take out the Aipoms close to the start of the game. If so, if you think so, you can use an Exp. Share as a withheld item. Bite may not have critical damage yet, but may stun enemies based on their low HP. If you can’t get the early Aipoms, try engaging in team fights early on and get some knockouts, then score goals. However, don’t let your opponents have much higher levels than you, if so, move to the middle lane and farm.

At level 5, Pupitar evolves into Larvitar and Bite into Dark Pulse or Stone Edge. Stone Edge can deal far more AoE damage than its predecessor. However, Dark Pulse can perform a combo of moves with Sand Tomb afterwards. However, Sand Tomb would help a lot in juggling at that stage. However, Dark Pulse has a lower CD. Also, Drednaw fights would be more recommended than Rotom fights.

Late game

After level 5, no changes occur to the Pokémon until level 9. It is at Lv. 9, that his Skill 2 gets an update and that Unite Move is also available. So, for those 4 levels, players should engage in team fighting or juggling. Once Tyranitar has fully evolved, Sand Tomb or Ancient Power are also available. Sand Tomb can be used as a dash-type move again, so bring enemies closer to Tyranitar to deal more damage. It is a Pokémon that every opponent would like to stay away from.

Placement of Tiranitar
