Best counters for Garchomp in OU?

My personal tier list for the current OU metagame - let's debate!

After playing over 500 games this season, here's how I'd rank the top threats:

S Tier Pokemon

S Tier (Meta-defining):

  • Dragonite (Multiscale is broken)

  • Garchomp (Best overall Pokemon)

  • Heatran (Incredible defensive utility)


A Tier (Top threats):
  • Landorus-T

  • Ferrothorn

  • Toxapex

  • Weavile

  • Volcarona


A Tier Example

B Tier (Solid picks):

  • Gyarados

  • Magnezone

  • Clefable

  • Tapu Lele

  • Kartana


C Tier (Niche but viable):
  • Bisharp

  • Azumarill

  • Slowbro

  • Amoonguss


What would you change? I'm sure some of these placements will be controversial!

Quick question - does this method work in the newer games too?
