Tyranitar counter to Entei?

Title says it all. Why isn't Tyranitar listed as a counter to Entei. T-Tar is resistant while hitting back with STAB SE dmg (Stone edge)

Golem and Rhydon are rock/ground, but Tyranitar is dark/rock. Ground is immune to electric. Rock is not ground. Electric is neutral against rock.

I'm sorry, you misunderstood my post. I was talking about ENTEI.

bite stone edge should most definitely be up there and im sure they will at some point realize it and put it there.

the only logical reasons i can see is that entei resists tyranitars fire blast and iron tail and is neutral to bite and crunch, so it only has one move that damages it, where as the others have both quick and charged moves that do so or have higher damage move sets (like dragonite i.e), so because of that they did not initially put it up there. and mon like omastar and kingdra are up there because they double resist fire and also have combo sets of double weakness to entei (wg hp or rt rs), but from someone who always uses bite se tyranitar in raids and gym takeovers, that combo does crazy damage and should definitely be added to that list.

Oh. I totally read that as asking about Raikou. There is no way that Tyranitar should have been left off the counters for fire, so I just made the assumption that you must have been asking about the electric one.

TTar with B/SE is definitely a strong counter. Should be on the list.
