  1. Spoilers to Scarlet/Violet 

    Spoiler

    After hearing that Tyranitar will have a Paradox form (either Past or Future Form), I couldn't resist but to see it, and... and... 

    Spoiler

    Oh, my, GOD. 

    It's so BADASS - looks almost like Armored Tyranitar from Insurgence, but with more armor, and green spikes. 

     

    If to trust the leaks about typing and stat spread, it will have Rock/Electric typing, the same HP, Attack and Defense, but only 70 Special Attack, 84 Special Defense, and 72 Speed. That means its' BST is only 570, which is by no means bad, but it's not the 600 BST normal Tyranitar has. Yet, seeing that all Paradox Pokemon have 570 BST, including those based on other Pseudolegendary and Legendary Pokemon (like Salamence, Hydreigon, Suicune, Virizon), and likes of Delibird and Jigglypuff, I think this was to be intended - they would be an equivalent of Ultra Beasts (but cooler) 

     

    And about the typing... I think Rock/Electric is a bit better defensively than Rock/Dark:

    • Rock/Electric has 4 weaknesses (one of them being x4), and 5 resistances
    • Rock/Dark has 7 weaknesses (one of them being x4), 6 resistances and a immunity

    Offensively they fare rather similarily, with Rock/Dark having a slight edge in "how well they fare against Pokemon in general". 

     

    Whenever Paradox Tyranitar will be better than Johtonian Tyranitar will depend on the Ability; Sand Stream helps normal Tyranitar being more bulky specially, and makes it a necessary stable of Sandstorm teams. 

    If Paradox Tyranitar doesn't have Sand Stream, it means that specially it's gonna be quite fragile by comparison. Plus all Psyhical Electric moves which are widely accessible... suck. 

     

    But the Pokemon looks badass 

    And that's what matters
