[SET COMMENTS]
Thanks to great Attack and Speed stats combined with Unburden and Swords Dance, Sneasler is one of Ubers UU's most threatening late-game sweepers. Dire Claw is generally preferred as the Poison-type STAB move to nail Pokemon like Zacian and Clefable, but Gunk Shot can be opted for instead, trading off consistency for raw power, allowing Sneasler to achieve damage thresholds such as having a chance to OHKO Palafin-H and Arceus-Grass after Stealth Rock. Sneasler has a variety of options for coverage; Throat Chop is its strongest option against Solgaleo, Giratina, and Gholdengo, although Acrobatics naturally synergizes with Unburden and hits Pokemon like Great Tusk. Finally, Shadow Claw targets Annihilape and aformentioned Solgaleo and Giratina. Each Tera type should be paired with a coverage option. Tera Dark gives an immunity to Psychic-type attacks from Pokemon like Mewtwo and boosts Throat Chop, allowing it to beat Pokemon like Giratina. Tera Flying gives an immunity to Ground-type attacks and boosts Acrobatics, letting Sneasler have an easier time against Pokemon like Great Tusk. Tera Ghost gives an immunity to Extreme Speed and boosts Shadow Claw, letting Sneasler take on Extreme Killer Arceus formes and Gholdengo. Grassy Seed, when comsumed, activates Unburden and gives Sneasler an easier time setting up against Pokemon like Zacian. Rillaboom is a required partner for Sneasler, as the Grassy Terrain it sets up activates Sneasler's Grassy Seed, and it can also pivot Sneasler in so it can safely set up to sweep. Sneasler struggles against walls like Giratina and Landorus-T, so Pokemon that can take these threats on like Chi-Yu and Palafin are good to have as partners. Wallbreakers like Kyurem-W and Mewtwo can chip down the opposing team for Sneasler to attempt a sweep late-game.

Sneasler is a great cleaner and revenge killer that's able to take out sweepers like Mewtwo, Zacian, and Ogerpon-H thanks to its highed-powered STAB moves, great Attack and Speed stats, and useful utility options. Gunk Shot is generally preferred as the Poison-type STAB move as it OHKOes foes like Zacian, although Dire Claw trades off power for consistency. U-turn gives Sneasler the ability to set the tempo of the game by generating momentum for its team and helping bring in setup sweepers like Mewtwo and Zacian. Throat Chop provides coverage against Ghost-types like Gholdengo and Giratina, although Switcheroo is an option to cripple walls like Magearna and Dialga. Tera Dark can be used with Throat Chop, boosting the move and giving Sneasler a useful Psychic-type immunity, letting it take on Pokemon like Deoxys. Tera Fighting is a option to boost Close Combat, allowing Sneasler to achieve damage thresholds like OHKOing Dialga and Arceus-Dark. Sneasler generally fits best on offensive teams looking for a reliable cleaner and revenge killer. Pokemon like Palafin, Landorus-T, and Cylizar can make VoltTurn cores with Sneasler. As Sneasler's damage output can be potentially disappointing, it appreciates entry hazards from Pokemon like Great Tusk and Magearna making it more difficult to switch into and more offensively threatening. Sneasler can't do much against Pokemon like Arceus-Poison and Gholdengo, so Pokemon like Landorus-T that can take these threats on are useful teammates.
