Who do you find to be somewhat of an underdog in Pokemon? As in maybe a sweeper or perhaps a wall that isn't really used, but can be very useful?

There's so many different options there. Boost up Tyranitar's HP & Defense, combined with it's naturally high attack power and you have a pretty decent Pokemon. Its speed isn't the greatest, but it has above average Special Attack & Special Defense. Sandstorm can do some nice damage fairly quick also.

Rampardos would be one. His attack is naturally near-uber, so doing the same to him as you suggested with Tyranitar, and it makes a decent physical wall.

Not bad. Their HP, ATTACK, and SPEED stats are normally equal. But Tyranitar has the upper-hand with Defence, Special Attack, & Special Defense stats all being higher.

The type differences may give some difference between the two; as Tyranitar is a Dark-Rock type Pokemon & Rampardos is Rock. It would be an interesting match up to have them verse each other; although I'm not that familiar with their capable movesets, which is what would determine the end results.

Well, both can SD, and since T-tar has a 4times weakness, rampardos would only need a couple good shots, while t-tar may need a bit more. T=tar has the higher defense (120 vs 60), but rampardos has a higher attack (165 vs 120). If I had exact stats, I could give you the dmg range for each to attack with no stats ailments or buffs.

Most people doubt that Gardevoir can be good (like the person who I'm going to own soon with) but I've found it as a really strong pokémon.
As for the Tyranatar/Rampardos disscusion, I think that Rampardos is more of an underdog (I don't have D/P so not sure of it's usage). It seems like a strong pokémon but one that no one uses (from my experience on Battle Rev).
