Thanks to its blistering speed stat, Sneasel finds its home in NFE as the fastest unboosted wallbreaker the metagame has to offer. Knock Off is Sneasels bread and butter, allowing it to break down bulkier Pokemon by getting rid of their Eviolites, Pokemon such as Gurdurr and Piloswine. Icicle Crash is Sneasels strongest Ice STAB with a nice chance to flinch opponents. Ice Shard helps Sneasel deal with priority and Choice Scarf users, while also helping against boosted Pokemon such as Toxic Orb Quick Feet Galarian Linoone and sun boosted Gloom. Brick Break allows Sneasel to hit common switch-ins like Piloswine and Klang much harder.
Sneasels role is to be sent out and click Knock off on as many Pokemon as it safely can, then switch out to clean up later. Fighting-type Pokemon like Machoke and Gurdurr appreciate having Sneasel on the same team because it helps take care of the Psychic and Ghost-type Pokemon that threaten them like Hattrem and Haunter. Pokemon that set hazards such as Galarian Corsola and Piloswine are also great partners for Sneasel as it helps it tear through teams easier. Special Wallbreakers like Haunter that can take care of the physical walls such as Gurdurr that tank Sneasels blows are also good partners. Defensively, Ghost-type Pokemon like Galarian Corsola are great support for Sneasel as they are immune to the Fighting-type moves that can get rid of Sneasel easily. Aurora Veil is an incredibly useful tool to Sneasel, giving it an extra amount of bulk to let it more easily grab revenge kills and stay in on some things that would usually force it out, such as Piloswine or Scarfed Haunter. Lastly hazard control is important as Sneasel is weak to Stealth Rocks, so Pokemon that can get rid of them such as Rapid Spin Wartortle or Defog Gurdurr are great partners.
