Build Notes

Life Orb Garchomp provides immediate high-damage output that guarantees KOs on Charizard Y with Rock Slide and opposing Garchomp with Dragon Claw. Jolly nature with 32 Atk and 32 Spe outspeeds base-100 Speed Pokemon and Charizard Y. The 2 HP investment gives a marginal higher chance of surviving opposing Garchomp's Dragon Claw plus Rough Skin chip combined. Rough Skin punishes contact moves from Staraptor matchups. Earthquake pairs naturally with Mega Staraptor since Staraptor is Flying-type and immune, enabling clean spread damage on ground-susceptible teams.
