I have everything I need but I can't pick a good item for him. I can't use Life Orb because my Gengar is already running a set with a life orb. No leftovers cause my Slowbro is using that item already and I can't use a Choice Band because I won't be able to set up my swords dance. Also, my Infernape is using a muscle band, Skarmory is holding a rocky helmet and my Froslass is holding a focus sash.

@CSquared1025 tbh I would just go lum berry on this one, since Garchomp is highly likely to be will-o-wisped in the next following few turns. In fact, I wouldn't rely a bit too much on dragon rush since it has a base accuracy of 75 (it isn't quite great unless you have gravity set up...) Dragon claw and maybe Outrage are the most lenient moves used in doubles, but that's just my opinion.
If you want, focus sash is optional because you don't want to be hit by an incoming ice beam lol
Sleep is important, so take a nap -_- (zzzzzzz....)

Here's the set I'm running for my Garchomp. I would use a Lum Berry on him if you can't use Life Orb. If you're running all attacks, you could even consider a choice band.
Garchomp @ Life Orb
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw
- Rock Slide
- Protect
The minute you think of giving up, think of the reason why you held on so long.

What do you think about Dragon Rush instead of Dragon Claw? Is the accuracy drop too unmanagable?

@Chawizawd Dragon Claw/Outrage are more reliable, because losing because of a miss always sucks. I legit lost games because of a missed Stone Edge, so I really wouldn't recommend Dragon Rush.
