Effect

In battle

If held by a Tyranitar, the Tyranitarite allows it to Mega Evolve into Mega Tyranitar if its Trainer has a Key Stone. A Trainer can only Mega Evolve one Pokémon per battle (or only have one Mega-Evolved Pokémon at any given momentZA).

As a Mega Stone, it is unaffected by item-negating effects (such as Embargo and Klutz). Item-manipulating effects (such as Trick and Fling) cannot give or remove a Tyranitarite from Tyranitar.

Outside of battle

If held by a Tyranitar, the Tyranitarite allows it to Mega Evolve into Mega Tyranitar when it performs a Spectacular Talent during a Pokémon Contest Spectacular if its Trainer has a Key Stone. Tyranitar will remain a Mega Tyranitar until the Talent Round ends.
