fun set
Prankster RestTalk lets Grimm heal and attack before the opponent does, and since bulk up is also prankster affected, Grimm will almost always be at +1 before the opponent attacks.
Darkest lariat is usually preferred because missing can sometimes be detrimental and the power loss is extremely minimal. Darkest Lariat also ignores opponents defense boosts which could be situationally helpful in a bulk up war against something like Braviary.
Leftovers is also usually preferred because the passive healing is very nice, but LO can also be considered because the damage boost is potentially helpful, and recoil isn't usually a problem because of rest.
Bulk up is the boosting move of choice. (if grimm learned calm mind I would've picked that lol)
This set lets Grimm act as a wincon lategame, by setting up to +6 and often winning on the spot once there are no dark / fairy resists left.
