Scarf Chomp

Garchomp @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 Atk / 180 Spe / 76 SpA
Nature: Adamant
- Outrage
- Earthquake
- Fire Blast
- Crunch

This Garchomp set allows you to outspeed alot of pokemons, it's usually used for revenge kill, late at game. Only thing that will outspeed this is something scarfed with a higher speed stat for example Scarfed Starmie and Weavile. 76 Sp Attack ev's so you can dent those steel types that try to block you e.g Fort and Skarm.

Swords Dancer

Garchomp @ Life Orb / Yache Berry
Ability: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 Atk / 240 Spe / 16 HP
Nature: Adamant / Jolly
-Swords Dance
-Outrage
-Earthquake
-Fire Fang

Another late game Chomp set, after just one Swords Dance it OHKO's Max HP/Def Gliscor/Weezings/Dusknoir and does 92.97% - 109.38% to Max HP/Def Donphan and Damage: 85.95% - 101.19% to Max HP/Def Hippowdon. It can't OHKO Cress but Cress can't either with Ice beams (with no calm minds) enabling Chomp to KO it with the second Outrage.

Band Chomp

Garchomp @ Choice Band
Ability: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
Nature: Jolly
-Earthquake
-Outrage/Dragon Claw
-Crunch/Stone Edge
-Fire Fang

This is a standard choice band set, this will hit your opponent really hard, good prediction skills is needed to block this off, Skarm predicting EQ, Heatran for Outrage etc.

Specs Chomp

Garchomp @ Choice Specs
Ability: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 6 SpD
Nature: Modest
- Draco Meteor
- Flamethrower
- Dragon Pulse
- Surf

Standard specs set, can be used to suprise those physicals walls that try to resist your attacks.

Wall Chomp

Garchomp @ Leftovers
Trait: Sand Veil
188 HP / 54 Atk / 252 Def / 16 Spe
Impish (+Def, -SpA)
- Stealth Rock
- Roar
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake

188 HP EVs = 404 HP, which gives maximum Leftovers gain. 16 Spe outspeeds Max speed Tyranitar. Max Defense guarantees Garchomp surviving an Outrage from Max Attack Garchomp, even with the 188 HP EVs it survives. The rest just goes in Atk. Also, this helps survive Ice Beams from 273 SpA Pokemon, such as Starmie or Vaporeon.

Counters

Garchomp has a decent amount of counters, those being bulky Starmie, Hippowdon, Cresselia. Basically anything with a STAB ice attack/ boosted sp attack e.g calm minding Cress. Skarm and Forts can be used to shield of its outrages and EQ's while they set up spikes, toxic spiked, SR etc. Slowbro can also take a few of its outrages and then being able to OHKO with a stabbed ice beam.

For the Swords Dancer Chomp. Some people may use Dragon Claw instead of Outrage.
