[SET COMMENTS]
Thanks to its combination of great attack and good speed coupled with Unburden, Sneasler proves itself to be a ferocious late game sweeper. Dire Claw or Gunk Shot and Close Combat are its main attacking moves, with the former handling Zacian-H and Clefable while the latter deals with Arceus-Dark, Chi-Yu and Kingambit, Swords Dance boosts its attack, and the last spot is for coverage; Acrobatics gains power when losing an item, which is the whole point of an unburden user, and Lash Out hits the many Psychic and Ghost types in the tier like Mewtwo, Solgaleo, Deoxys, and Giratina for super-effective damage. EVs and Nature aim to maximize its attacking power, since Unburden is easily activated through the Grassy Seed and Grassy Terrain. Tera Types are to boost the power of its coverage options, while also having some defensive utility; Tera Flying lets you be immune to Ground-type attacks from users like Great Tusk and Landorus-Incarnate, and Tera Dark lets you be immune to Psychic-type attacks from Mewtwo and Slowking-Galar. Sneasler appreciates Rillaboom who fills multiple roles that benefit it at the same time; it sets up Grassy Terrain to begin with, alongside being a slow pivot like Solgaleo, and a priority user like Palafin. Sneasler also needs absorbers for Paralysis, so Pokemon like Great Tusk and Arceus-Electric will be important for it to switch out to.
