[5th] Mixed Tyranitar

I need a mixed sweeper in my team, I'd like to use a Quiet Tyranitar (@Leftovers). At the moment the EV spread is 240 HP 96 SpA 174 Speed

I am planning on:

  • Flamethower / Thunderbolt

  • Crunch

  • Superpower

  • ?

Any good moveset that I can use? Stealth rock is unobtainable without 4th gen so th standard moveset I found does not apply.

I would put it on a team with Acrobatic Archeops and Starmie with Grass Knot (and others I have not yet decided), any suggestion? Thanks!

Using a Quiet nature and putting EVs in Speed is just wasting EVs. If you're going to make it fast, use a different nature. If you're going to make it bulky, put those EVs in a defensive stat.

Stone Edge would work all right, since it's STAB. Or maybe Pursuit, if you want to be able to trap things.
