[SET COMMENTS]
Grimmsnarl can reliably set dual screens thanks to Prankster, giving its offensive teammates an easier time setting up and making them harder to revenge kill. Bulkier teams are able to stall for the limited number of turns dual screens are active for, however. Play Rough has a decent chance to 2HKO Ting-Lu, which is immune to Prankster-boosted Taunt, stopping it from freely laying Spikes. Taunt prevents Pokemon such as Arceus formes from using Grimmsnarl as setup fodder; prevents Landorus-T, Glimmora, and Toxapex from setting entry hazards; and prevents Giratina-O from using Defog, while Parting Shot lets a teammate switch in more safely. Tera Ghost makes Grimmsnarl immune to Arceus's Extreme Speed, which has a higher priority than Prankster-boosted moves, and neutral to attacks like Zacian-C's STAB moves. Grimmsnarl is best used on hyper offense teams, where it can block Koraidon's Scale Shot in a pinch, sparingly take hits from Calyrex-S, and—most importantly—support setup sweepers such as Swords Dance Koraidon and setup Arceus formes. Zacian-C and Arceus-Ground can notably switch into Pokemon Grimmsnarl cannot safely stop from setting up such as Arceus-Fairy and opposing Zacian-C, respectively. Additionally, Nasty Plot Calyrex-S and Calm Mind + Agility Miraidon appreciate Grimmsnarl potentially weakening Ting-Lu, their primary defensive check. A hazard lead such as Glimmora can further support Grimmsnarl's offensive teammates by wearing down their checks.
