I can beat Aerodactyl and Slowking, but I barely put a dent in Tyranitar. He’s like 10k combat power. Any tips?

Use any fighting type against tyranitar with counter. Poliwag just had a community day and poliwrath will crush that T-tar
Machamp with counter and dynamic punch makes quick work of t-tar
I’d maybe try Ice, Dark, and Fighting in that order. Good luck. I find Aerodactyl to be a little tough too
Liquidation and frost breath
I’d start with a strong dark type but immediately switch to a swampert with water gun, muddy water, and surf (hydro cannon instead of you have it). Use muddy water for the shields and switch to surf/HC after to bring down the Aerodactyl, then switch to the dark type for the slowing, preferably something spammy like Umbreon or Darkrai, and have a Machamp with counter/dynamic punch to finish the t-tar
I absolutely despise him with every fiber of my being. I call him Clunt.
Edit: Omg 3 awards and 500+ updoots, thank you!!
Yeah that Aerodactyl has been brutal. I mega swampert it now, my tried and trusted vaporeon has been amazing at wrecking shield of all the leaders for many cycles but this time, the aerodactyl, just eats fucking everything.
I usually take out a Pokémon do a few hits to charge during the attack lag and switch to swampert, then the first Pokémon is in good position to take out other things.
If his Aerodactyl has bite just wait for the next time. That thing DRAINS health.
Bring Metagross if Aero has rock throw or steel wing, bring Tyranitar if it has bite. Slow is really easy. Usually a dark type like Hydreigon will make it trivial. Machamp, Lucario, Hariyama, any strong fighting type will obliterate Ttar. Aero is the only tough one
His gallade is a sweeper.
Aerodactyl is a beast. Whatever your counter is for him (preferably something with low energy charge moves to get those shields out of the way), start with it on the bench and swap in right at the start of the battle to pause his attacks and give you a head start on energy generation.
Ttar is double weak to fighting. A decent Machamp with counter and cross chop should work.
I think I used blaziken, arcanine, and golem. I think my bf used arcanine, granbull, and lefeon.
Beat this guy by the skin of my teeth. Used Swampert, rhyperior, and excadrill. Just got one final charged attack before my excadrill died.
I use Lucario with Power-Up Punch and Melmetal with Thunderbolt. Any other strong Pokémon for the third as cleanup, just in case.
if it has bite, I use a maxed out Empolean with Waterfall, Drill Peck and Hydro Canon. it’s double typing water/steel makes it a super effective attack and not very effective against.
will use Girantina and a Machamp to go with.
typically faster the hare move the better with Rockets, but definitely use the immediate switch at the start someone else mentioned.
Whenever you switch, use a charged move, or your opponent makes a charged move, they take about 3 seconds before they start attacking again (regardless of shielding).
Bring a Pokemon with a very fast charging move (like disarming voice, which would be super effective against ttar or dynamic punch isn’t bad). Fight, charge, then switch out to something else when he starts attacking, resetting the timer. Switch back in when that one dies. Only use a charge move when he starts attacking to maximize how long he doesn’t attack. If you can, keep Pokemon at red health for fodder to switch in/out for the timer. Finally, I would make sure you take out shields before ttar comes in
Edit: to clarify, disarming voice or other are amazing for Rockets because of their really low charge times. You switch in, start attacking, and can often charge before they start hitting. After the charged move, the timer resets, and you charge again while they don’t attack. Rinse and repeat. Dynamic punch will deal more damage due to 4x weakness but charges at a slower rate
The Aerodactyl uses hacks and I don’t care what anyone else says. That thing is broken.

I haaaateeee him. I can’t beat him and it enrages me and I have to beat him to finish one of my special tasks.
😤😤😤
I use my Scizor to burn off the shields and sometimes get one supercharged attack in. Machomat the end. Rhyperior sometimes in the
Middle
Try mon’s with fast charge moves. Not only does it use up his shields faster, but Rocket Pokémon stop attacking for a few turns after every charge move, so if you can spam fast charge moves you can almost stop them from attacking all togethero
For me he’s the easiest. Arlo is a real challenge though. Probably because my “ace” Pokémon is a mega Venasaur and Cliff mainly uses rock types.
Garchomp with sand tomb always leads my team to get rid of those shields, then stack your team with fast charge attackers like Swampert.
Aerodactyl with bite is a tricky mon to get over. I would suggest leading with a melmetal with thunder shock and rock slide. This gives you the option to remove his shields quickly and then counter whatever comes next.
Use melmetal for aerodactyl. Or anything steel really
cliff is particularly difficult right now because all of his pokémon have significant fast move pressure that can be hard to outpace.
Take advantage of switch mechanics, start with a ghost type and immediately switch to something like a mega swampert (quick charger) or a mega gyadrados if it’s got bite for the double resistance after taking down the aero swap to your ghost type to take out the psychic middle mon (sometimes he has cradily tho) and after that swap to a fighter, ideally lucario, its the fastest charger and has access to shadow ball on the off chance he has dusknoir at the end
It’s the facial hair
Get a good Swampert
Mud Shot
Hydrocannon
You’ll tear through his Aerodactyl
Never lost a single team rocket battle. And I don’t even read what Pokemon they are bringing just use my master league team.
