Grimmsnarl's access to Prankster, as well as Reflect and Light Screen, makes it invaluable on hyper offensive variants of Dark teams and as a way to take on opposing Dark teams. Prankster lets Grimmsnarl set up priority Reflect and Light Screen, making it easier for teammates to set up. Grimmsnarl's access to Parting Shot allows it to bring in a teammate immediately, but Taunt is also a viable option to prevent Defog and opposing leads setting up entry hazards. Thunder Wave also can be used as a form of speed control. Spirit Break lets Grimmsnarl threaten opposing Dark-type setup sweepers such as Hydreigon and Chien-Pao that may leverage their Prankster immunity to set up on Grimmsnarl. Grimmsnarl should be used aggressively early-game to capitalize on its teammates' sweeping potential.

Teammates such as Swords Dance Chien-Pao, Nasty Plot Hydreigon, Swords Dance Kingambit, and Dragon Dance Roaring Moon all appreciate Grimmsnarl reducing the damage they take while setting up with dual screens. Entry hazard setters like Ting-Lu can be useful to help wear down opposing defensive Pokemon so that Grimmsnarl's teammates can sweep. Choice Scarf Meowscarada is appreciated for being able to revenge kill Pokemon such as Great Tusk and Iron Valiant. Chien-Pao and Kingambit can utilize Grimmsnarl's dual screens to break through opposing teams, and Hydreigon can break through Steel-types that may threaten Grimmsnarl out. Greninja can threaten out Cinderace and prevent it from using Court Change while also being able to revenge kill Iron Valiant.

Grimmsnarl's access to Prankster, as well as Reflect and Light Screen, makes it invaluable on more hyper offensive variants of Dark teams (Mention it being an asset against opposing Dark teams). Prankster lets Grimmsnarl set up priority Reflect and Light Screen, making it easier for teammates to set up. Grimmsnarl's access to Parting Shot allows it to bring in a teammate immediately, but Taunt is also a viable option to prevent Defog and opposing leads setting up entry hazards. (Mention Thunder Wave) Spirit Breaks lets Grimmsnarl threaten opposing Dark-type set-up sweepers such as Kingambit Hydreigon (Kingambit just sets up on Grimmsnarl) and Chien-Pao, who may leverage their Prankster immunity to set up on Grimmsnarl. The given EV spread provides Grimmsnarl with more longevity and allows to set up screens easier on physical priority attacks such as Scizor's Bullet Punch and Lokix's First Impression. (You don't need to elaborate on "max max" EV spreads) Grimmsnarl should be used aggressively early-game to capitalize on its teammates sweeping potential.

Teammates such as Swords Dance Chien-Pao, Nasty Plot Hydreigon, Swords Dance Kingambit, and Dragon Dance Roaring Moon all appreciate Grimmsnarl reducing the damage they take while setting up with screens. Entry hazard setters like Ting-Lu and Meowscarada (Meowscarada doesn't typically set up entry hazards) can be useful to help wear down opposing defensive Pokemon so that Grimmsnarl's teammates can sweep. Choice Scarf Meowscarada is appreciated for being able to revenge kill Pokemon such as Great Tusk and Iron Valiant. (Mention what Chien-Pao, Hydreigon, Kingambit, and Greninja do for Grimmsnarl)

I don't have much more to add, this is very good and Giyu/Neko's comments covered everything that was missing.
