Garchomp has a versatile movepool at its disposal, and because it's a [[pseudo-legendary]], it has the stats to back it up. Chances are, the first movepool listed will be the one more effective, since Garchomp's Attack stat dominates over it's Special Attack. However, in case of {{p|Wobbuffet}}, it might be worth consideration to mix special with physical.

Work mostly on Attack and Speed, since these stats are vital for Garchomp. The {{b|Yache}} should help Garchomp last longer against pesky {{type|Ice}} moves, but also consider a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Focus Sash}} for overall survivability. The {{DL|In-battle effect item|Choice Band}} or {{DL|In-battle effect item|Choice Scarf}} would also act as good boosters for either necessary stat, provided you know what moves to use.

Torterra happens to have an interesting quirk in its typing: all four types strong against it ({{t|Fire}}, {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Flying}}, and {{t|Ice}}) happen to be weak to {{type|Rock}} moves. Therefore, teaching it either {{m|Stone Edge}} or {{m|Rock Slide}} can help it overcome it's weaknesses. {{m|Wood Hammer}} is a strong physical {{type|Grass}} move and will act as one of Torterra's two main offenses, along with {{m|Earthquake}}. {{m|Crunch}} rounds out the moveset.
 
Obviously, Torterra is an attack-oriented Pokémon, so boosting it's attack would be helpful. Also note that Torterra is far from speedy, so bulk up it's defenses/HP to allow it a good chance of surviving an attack or two.
 
The {{b|Yache}} Berry can help Torterra withstand it's one double weakness, while the Choice Band gives it some extra attack power behind its moves. Alternatively, the [[In-battle effect item|Zoom Lens]] can help Stone Edge become more effective, especially considering how most of the time Torterra's going last.
