What a concept! Group: Members Posts: 869 Member No.: 4810 Joined: 6-December 07 Status: (0d)	They mentioned that Tyranitar wasn't allowed at an official Platinum tournament. I'm not really into Poke'mon like I used to be, so can someone explain why this was? I'm thinking that a decent fighting type move would put it down considering it's rock/dark type. -------------------- Otacon?

there's a berry that halves the damage taken from ice moves, pair this with the fact that garchomp is fast

Oh. Didn't know about the berry thing. I can see how that would make him harder to deal with than he already is, but I still wouldn't ban him.
