    I'm gonna try it two ways..

    What is a good melee top lane pick that isn't hard countered:
    Yorick
    Jayce (Melee+Ranged)
    Lee Sin
    Rumble
    Shen

    What is a good top lane pick that gets hard countered:
    Gangplank
    Garen
    Nasus
    Volibear

    Hope it helped lol.

    For Garen it does matter who is doing the ranged poking. 

    Cho and Teemo have ranged pokes, but Garen does pretty well against them and even counters Cho. 

    On the other hand, if it's someone like Elise or Nidalee doing the poking, then Garen is pretty much screwed.

    GP - Malphite, Jax, Olaf, Xin Zhao
    Garen - Malphite, Ranged Poke

    etc.

    Garen isn't easily hard countered. Garen does well in lane he just has less presence later on.
    GP isn't hard countered either.

    Nidalee, Teemo and Kayle are champions that can often counter melee tops due to their ranged abilities and mobility.

    Ok, I messed up the second one, it should just be:
    Melee top lane picks that get hard countered

    Maybe he means hard counters to top melees?

    If so, Jayce, Yorick and Rumble are good melees to counter a lot of other melees. If you want ranged counters to melee top laners, there's Teemo, Lulu, Elise, Swain, Kayle

    Or maybe what Xeronn said. I have no idea what's happening.

    Generally go someone who isn't a bruiser to counter a high health bruiser. Teemo because of his blind is particularly effective, as is Yorick because of his harass/sustain combination. Swain has incredible sustain post 6, and can harass from a nice range as well. Jayce is only good if you can switch between his forms effectively.
