Best answer

Garchomp is Stronger because he has higher speed, Health, and defense and Not just attack. Salamance has 3 weaknesses including a 4x to Ice and has 6 not very effective types against it. Salamance is Dragon/Flying. Garchomp Has 2 weaknesses including a 4x to ice too and he has 4 not very effective types. Garchomp is Drragon/Ground. Here are my reccomended moves:

Salamance: Attack: Dragon Claw, Iron Tail, Earthquake, Fly, Crunch, Steel Wing, Zen Headbutt, Brick Break, Stone Edge, Dragon Claw
Special Attack: Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Dragon Pulse

Garchomp: Attack: Earthquake, Dig, Dragon Claw, Dragon Rush, Crunch, Stone Edge, Shadow Claw, Brick break, Poison Jab
Special Attack: Fire Blast, Flamethower, Dragon Pulse

Aggron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Though he has a lower total base stat by 70, Here is why he is better. For 1, He Has HUGE defnse and excellent attack. Also, Listen to this: Aggron has 3 weaknesses with a 4x to Ground and Fighting BUT 10 types are not very effective!!!!!!! Tyranitar has 6 weaknesses including a 4x to fighting! Only 7 types are not very effective. Plus, Aggron learns Slightly better attacks. Here are my Reccomended moves for them:

Tyranitar: Attack: Crunch, Earthquake, Stone Edge, Dragon Claw, Iron Tail, Brick Break, Shadow Claw
Special Attack: Thunder, Thunderbolt, Fire Blast, Flamethrower, Dragon Pulse

Aggron: Attack: Iron Head, Iron Tail, Strength, Double Edge(If he has Rock Head), Stone Edge, Earthquake
Special Attack: Fire Blast, Flamethrower, SolarBaem, Ice Beam, Blizzard, Thunderbolt, Thunder

wow!cool thank you
wow!really?man,Aggron is sssoooooooo cool!
though i think garchomp looks more ugly and usually steel types has 18 type defenses including imunity to poison. but thats you choice
you forget that aggron can be downed easily by sp attacks + tyrannitar getting an automatic 50% boost to spdef from his ability. The next problem comes from aggron having a dangerous 4x weakness to ground, meaning 1 earthquake=rip. fighting also brings trouble to aggron while tyrannitar can outspeed machamp and conkeldurr AND learn aerial ace(both of them can).   That's why IMO tyrannitar is better, albeit more anticipated. Garchomp is THE first non-legendary to be banned from OU metagame, so that answers that.
Garchomp is better than Salamence and Tyranitar is better than Aggron! And thats it! Noone can't come and say that Aggron is better than Tyranita,r cuz you guys can use Tyranitar in Wi-Fi Battles but Aggron is just joke in Wi-Fi! And that is the true story btw! :/
You said Dragon Claw twice with Salamences Attacks.
XD
On Garchomp, Dual chop is better. It hits twice so it has the same power as Dragon claw and breaks sashes.
The answer was posted in 2010 when Dual Chop wasn't introduced. 2010 was Diamond.
Just a small thing, but the answer was actually posted in June 2010, which would be Gen 4.
