Grimmsnarl is a niche pick on hyper offense teams due to its access to Prankster and utility options, such as dual screens, Taunt, and Thunder Wave. Thanks to Prankster, it can use a priority Taunt to prevent Defog and opposing Taunt, thereby keeping up Reflect, Light Screen, and any potential entry hazards. Prankster also prevents setup from sweepers, such as Geomancy from Xerneas, and Dragon Dance from Mega Rayquaza. Thunder Wave allows Grimmsnarl to cripple fast foes such as Zacian-C, which can then be exploited by Grimmsnarl’s teammates. A Bold nature along with maximum EV investment in both HP and Defense allow Grimmsnarl to tank hits better, thereby maximizing the chance that it can set both Reflect and Light Screen.

Grimmsnarl is only usable on hyper offensive archetypes. Suicide leads, such as Deoxys-S and Excadrill, appreciate Grimmsnarl’s priority Taunt to prevent Defoggers, such as Ho-Oh, from removing the entry hazards they set up. General Pokemon that fit on hyper offense like Zacian-C, Mega Rayquaza, Weakness Policy Necrozma-DM, Primal Groudon, Ultra Necrozma, Yveltal, and Xerneas, appreciate both dual screens and Thunder Wave in order to ease setup. Dual screens is also valuable, as it improves offense's matchup against Ditto. Since Taunt still won’t stop spinners such as Excadrill and Smeargle from removing entry hazards set by Grimmsnarl’s teammates, pair Grimmsnarl with Ghost-types such as Arceus-Ghost in order to spinblock.

Grimmsnarl is a staple strong pick [I’ve seen plenty of solid HO teams without grimm, and it’s by no means mandatory on the playstyle. Just look at mdb’s lycanroc HO.] on hyper offense teams due to its access to Prankster and utility options, such as Dual Screens, Taunt, and Thunder Wave. Thanks to Prankster, it can use a priority Taunt to prevent Defog from Ho-Oh or support Arceus formes, as well as to prevent setup from sweepers, such as Geomancy from Xerneas, and Dragon Dance from Mega Rayquaza or Necrozma-DM. Thunder Wave allows Grimmsnarl to cripple foes, which can then be exploited by Grimmsnarl’s teammates. A Bold Nature along with maximum EV investment in both HP and Defense allows Grimmsnarl to tank hits better to maximize the chance that it can set both Reflect and Light Screen.

Grimmsnarl’s best fit is is only usable [No good non-HO team uses screen support lol] on hyper offensive archetypes. Suicide leads, such as Deoxys-Speed, Smeargle, and Excadrill, appreciate Grimmsnarl’s priority Taunt to prevent Defoggers, such as Ho-Oh, from removing the hazards that they set up. Furthermore, setup sweepers like Zacian-Crowned, Mega Rayquaza, Mega Blastoise [Mega stoise isn’t on the VR so it’s definitely not worth a mention], Weakness Policy Necrozma-DM, and Xerneas, appreciate both dual screens and Thunder Wave against crippled Pokémon. Since Taunt still won’t stop spinners such as Excadrill and Smeargle from removing hazards set by Grimmsnarl’s teammates, pair Grimmsnarl works well with Ghost-types such as Arceus-Ghost and Lunala in order to that can spinblock.

Feel free to implement whatever you agree with

Grimmsnarl is a strong pick on hyper offense teams due to its access to Prankster and utility options, such as Dual Screens, Taunt, and Thunder Wave. Thanks to Prankster, it wins the hazard war vs other leads such as Deoxys-Speed and Excadrill, it can use a priority Taunt to prevent Defog from Ho-Oh or support Arceus formes, as well as to prevent setup from sweepers, such as Geomancy from Xerneas, and Dragon Dance from Mega Rayquaza. Thunder Wave allows Grimmsnarl to cripple fast foes such as Zacian-C which can then be exploited by Grimmsnarl’s teammates. A Bold Nature along with maximum EV investment in both HP and Defense allows Grimmsnarl to tank hits better to maximize the chance that it can set both Reflect and Light Screen.

Grimmsnarl’s is only usable on hyper offensive archetypes. Suicide leads, such as Deoxys-Speed and Excadrill, appreciate Grimmsnarl’s priority Taunt to prevent Defoggers, such as Ho-Oh, from removing the hazards they set up. Furthermore, General Pokemon which fit on hyper offense such as setup sweepers like Zacian-Crowned, Mega Rayquaza, Weakness Policy Necrozma-Dusk Mane, Primal Groudon and Xerneas, appreciate both dual screens and Thunder Wave against crippled Pokémon in order to ease setup. Dual screens is also valuable as it improves offense's matchup vs Ditto and so Ditto weak Pokemon such as Zacian-C and Primal Groudon fit well. Since Taunt still won’t stop spinners such as Excadrill and Smeargle from removing hazards set by Grimmsnarl’s teammates, pair Grimmsnarl with Ghost-types such as Arceus-Ghost and Lunala in order to spinblock.
QC 1/2, good work.
