Primordial Sea Greninja can use its rain-boosted attacks to wallbreak with Choice Specs or serve as a valuable revenge killer and late-game cleaner with Choice Scarf, outspeeding boosted threats such as Choice Scarf Chi-Yu and Sandy Shocks, Surge Surfer Houndstone, and +1 Volcarona. Hydro Pump's higher power 2HKOes even Water-resistant foes such as Baxcalibur, Dondozo, and Quaquaval. U-turn lets it act as a solid offensive pivot, pairing extremely well with other offensive teammates like Great Tusk and Armarouge that threaten its switch-in such as Toxapex, Desolate Land Iron Moth, and Roaring Moon. Greninja can run an entry hazard of choice since it forces multiple switches and threatens common hazard removers like Great Tusk and Corviknight, whittling down its checks in the long run. Switcheroo immediately cripples its defensive checks as well as bulky setup sweepers like Calm Mind Scream Tail and Florges, especially for Choice Scarf variants that can't immediately harm them. Water Shuriken is a fringe option that can pick off weakened foes like Baxcalibur, Chien-Pao, and Noivern. VoltTurn support from Pokemon such as Cinderace and Iron Moth is appreciated to bring Greninja in safely on foes like Great Tusk and Garganacl.
