No offense, Sol, but you're quite slow.

Tyranitar dropped to UU even before Chi-Yu was banned to Ubers.

And the description is wrong - Tyranitar dropped once to UU in Gen 8, but only for a month - they re-emerged against with the rise of Dragapult.

Now it's very unlikely that Tyranitar will rise to OU in Gen 9 due to bountiful of both bulky and fast Ground, Steel and Fighting Pokemon; not even Tera Flying and Tera Ghost safe them.

But they see niche uses in OU - once as Chi-Yu counter (as ot was probably the ONLY Pokemon to reliably counter it), and now Tyranitar sees their usage as Specially Bulky Psyhical Attacker - Max SpD Tera Rock Tyranitar in sand with Assault Vest, and I quote: "eats special attacks for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and later asks for two takeouts"

I currently use Tyranitar as Sand Setter and anti-setter/anti-weather eliminator in Gen 9 NatDex, and it does a pretty good job.

You’re quite right that I’m slow. Yet, I just sent you the video about the reason why Tyranitar was good and how it went down. Plus Chi-Yu has been banned at more than two months ago. However, you have a good point about competitive NatDex Gen9.

I am a bit of an competitive veteran, so of course I would know about the competitive history of my favorite 'mon.

But thanks for letting me know.
