Tyranitar's evolution in Pokelike
The ordinary evolution check uses the level thresholds below. They are Pokelike rules; evolution methods from another Pokémon game may differ.
Tyranitar has no later ordinary evolution record in this snapshot.
If evolution does not happen
Check whether the Pokémon holds Eviolite, whether the challenge disables evolution, and whether a Kanto fusion run restricts the target. The listed level is the threshold checked by the game, not a promise that every special mode will evolve the Pokémon.
Plan your next step
A direct late Johto encounter and the Larvitar evolution chain are separate options. Do not assume you must wait for a wild Tyranitar if you already own an earlier stage.
The base Rock/Dark type reference has a 4× Fighting weakness. Compare that cost with the rest of your party before replacing an existing member.

A comparison you can reproduce
Tyranitar versus Umbreon: a Rock Tier with a 4× cost
Compare Umbreon → Tyranitar beside Aerodactyl, Ampharos, Espeon, Heracross and Quagsire. Aerodactyl supplies the existing Rock point.
Tyranitar activates Rock T1 by bringing the total to two points, while keeping the Dark point and Psychic immunity. The cost is a 4× Fighting weakness plus new Ground and Water weaknesses in this slot. The extra Tier is useful only if those exposures are acceptable; this calculation does not establish Tyranitar as universally better than Umbreon.
