Snorlax @ Custap Berry
Ability: Gluttony
EVs: 188 HP / 72 Atk / 168 Def / 80 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Belly Drum
- Double-Edge
- Encore
- Heat Crash

Snorlax uses its great bulk and expansive movepool to serve as one of the best Pokemon in the 1v1 metagame. This set centers around activating Custap Berry early due to Gluttony and utilizing Belly Drum + Encore to break through majority of the tier, including Pokemon such as Zygarde and Cresselia. Heat Crash threatens Genesect, Kartana, and Aegislash. Fighting-types like Urshifu-S, Sawk, and Galarian Zapdos can put a lot of pressure on Snorlax; because of this, partners like Sylveon and Aqua Jet Primarina pair up well. Will-O-Wisp Volcanion is also notable, as it can get rid of opposing Custap Berry Snorlax as well as Rillaboom and Primarina, extremely common Pokemon, if Snorlax is not running Gunk Shot.

Snorlax uses its great bulk and expansive movepool to serve as one of the best Pokemon in the 1v1 metagame. This set centres around the early activation of Custap Berry due to gluttony, which utilizes Belly Drum + Encore to break through majority of the tier including Pokemon such as Zygarde, Sylveon, Primarina and Cresselia. (Need ice punch for zygarde, and Sylveon has yawn + protect shenanigans which aren't reliable.) Coverage options in Heat Crash and Gunk Shot allows Snorlax to threaten normal checks like Genesect, Kartana, and Aegislash. Primarina, and Iron Defense Tapu Fini which otherwise be hard to take down. (Lax can always win vs prim if you get the set right, so we're not going to run gunk just for fini.) Fighting-types like Urshifu-S, Sawk, and Galarian Zapdos can put a lot of pressure on Snorlax; because of this, partners like Sylveon and Aqua Jet Primarina pair up well. Will-O-Wisp Volcanion is also notable, as it can get rid of opposing Custap Berry Snorlax as well as Rillaboom and Primarina. if not running Gunk Shot, which are both extremely common Pokemon.

(the original read like primarina was the one that could run gunk shot, i'm guessing this is what you actually meant)
