Alright, I am sick and tired of facing Garchomp and Electivires left and right all the time, and watch them desecrate my team. My speed trained Jolly Dragonite and Modest Starmie doesn't even come close to outrunning them, and I keep on getting run over by an onslaught of OHKO Outrage and the wide range of super effective moves from Electivire

So, what are some useable pokemon that can effectively neutralize the threats from both of those pokemon at the same time?

You really can't expect a good counter to both. Garchomp barely has counters. Swampert would probably be your best bet I guess, but Im not really sure.

Weavile is the perfect counter for Garchomp. You can always try Froslasses with Destiny Bond. Electrivire's counter can always be Garchomp. They have to be Revenge Killers though...DON'T ever try switching a Pokemon on either of them. They are way to unpredicatable and dangerous to be switched in upon. :)

If its a revenge killer then its not a counter. Elec can KO garchomp with Ice Punch if it is predicited, and weavile is a horrible counter to Garchomp.

Yache berry stops Ice attacks from killing chomp so they're good if chomp isn't hold a Yache berry, though a lot of em do.

Weavile are good if they are already out, but if you try to switch a weavile in on a garchomp it will die easily.
