    Tyranitar or Metagross?

    I not really sure about this question and I'm trying to work out the
    answer.Thanks for your help
     
    Umm...I think both are awesome....
    But I would choose Metagross, since I always liked its look and I'm a great fan of steel pokemon XD

    Metagross, Tyranitar has a disturbing trait to teams (at least mine), but is also great.
     
    I'd say Metagross, it has a resistance to normal, grass, ice, flying, psychic, rock, dragon and steel and an immunity to bug. Tyranitar has weaknesses to water, grass, ground, bug and steel and a double weakness to fighting.
     
    Tyranitar is more versatile than Metagross and is probably better.

    That being said, Metagross can actually beat most common physical walls with Choice Band Meteor Mash, so that much I will recommend.
     
    I say metagross is better because it can learn steel moves and take out tryanitar.
     
    metagross. no double weaknesses
     
    I can't decide, to be honest. Design-wise, I find Tyranitar slightly better, but in terms of battle, I love both. Tyranitar for its surprising versatility and unpredictability (Choice Specs Tyranitar is something completely unexpected, but it can rip teams apart) and Metagross for its sheer brute strength. Back when I still actively battled on Wi-fi, (don't ask me why I stop - I don't know the answer to that myself either) my good ol' Metagross saved me countless times. With a bit of help from Ninjask, it once massacred a whole team and there's nothing like a STAB Bullet Punch from 135 base Attack to stop a stat boosted sweeper that threatens to sweep your whole team. I'd say I like them equally although I've had a bit more fun using Tyranitar.
     
    Metagross is the only Pokemon to survive an Earthquake from Flygon when I was a n00b battling someone experienced =(

    Still, Tyranitar has more uses, too much uses that it's hard to decide which Tyranitar your opponent is using. Metagross is always a neat surprise in 4th Gen, Smarties fainted my Gengar with Metagross when I forgot Metagross had Bullet Punch
     
    Metagross, for me, seems easier to sweep a team with. Tyranitar can KO a Reversal Heracross (I learned that the hard when I put both of them on the same team.) So in my opinion, I like Metagross better because its blue :).
     
    Yeah I know its hard Tyranitar once ripped through my team.Metagross is just like a brick wall
