- Stealth Rock
- Spikes

[SET COMMENTS]
Although it faces heavy competition from entry hazard leads like Deoxys-S and Excadrill, Garchomp sets itself apart from them with its solid Attack stat, ability to set up both Stealth Rock and Spikes, and ability to be a potent offensive threat after setting hazards. Dragon Tail allows Garchomp to phaze threats attempting to set up on it like Nasty Plot Mewtwo, Kingambit, and Ogerpon-H, although Scale Shot is an option instead to break Substitutes from the aforementioned Mewtwo and Palkia-O, break Focus Sashes from opposing leads like Deoxys, and boost Garchomp's Speed. Focus Sash allows Garchomp to tank at least one hit to set up hazards. Tera Ghost allows Garchomp to operate as a spinblocker, letting it set up hazards against Pokemon like Great Tusk and Cyclizar. Garchomp should be used exclusively on hyper offense teams looking for a reliable lead. Wallbreakers and offensive threats like Mewtwo, Zacian, Arceus-Poison, and Kyurem-W appreciate Garchomp setting hazards to wear down their checks like Arceus-Dark, Solgaleo, and Magearna. Ghost-types like Gholdengo and Spectrier spinblock for Garchomp if it does not want to Terastallize.

Although it faces heavy competition from opposing hazard leads like Deoxys-S and Excadrill, Garchomp sets itself apart from other hazard leads thanks to its sky-high Attack stat(sky high" is a bit far, maybe "solid" or even just "high" would be more accurate. ), ability to set up both Stealth Rock and Spikes, and the ability to be a potent offensive threat after setting hazards. Dragon Tail allows Garchomp to phaze out threats attempting to set up on it like Nasty Plot Mewtwo, Kingambit, and Ogerpon-H, although Scale Shot is an option instead to break Substitutes from the beforementioned Mewtwo and Palkia-O, break Focus Sashes from opposing leads like Deoxys, and boost Garchomp's speed. Focus Sash allows Garchomp to tank at least one hit to set up entry hazards. Tera Ghost allows Garchomp to operate as a spinblocker, allowing it to set up hazards against Pokemon like Great Tusk and Cyclizar. Garchomp should be used exclusively as a lead on hyper offense teams looking for a reliable lead. Wallbreakers and offensive threats like Mewtwo, Zacian, Arceus-Poison, and Kyurem-W appreciate Garchomp setting entry hazards to wear down their checks like Arceus-Dark, Solgaleo, Giratina, (Most tina hold boots)and Magearna. Ghost-types like Gholdengo (Spec is super good on HO, you should mention it here)spinblock for Garchomp if it does not want to Terastallize, allowing its hazards to stay on the field.
