Sneasler sits at 3.27% usage in Singles, ranked 49th. It leverages 120 Attack and 120 Speed to function as a fast Fighting-type wallbreaker. Its 4x Psychic weakness and double weaknesses to Ground and Flying cap its longevity against common special attackers like Mega Gengar and Umbreon. Choice Scarf sets are the norm, aiming to outpace faster threats and spam Close Combat into favorable matchups, while Dire Claw provides Poison-type coverage and a chance to poison key targets.
Playstyle:The standard build is Choice Scarf Adamant at 35% usage, outspeeding faster threats and spamming Close Combat. White Herb at 22.6% recovers the stat drops from Close Combat, preventing follow-up punishment. Poison Touch at 51.6% pairs naturally with Dire Claw at 20% to boost poison applications and accuracy. Sitrus Berry at 20% and Focus Sash at 14.7% appear on bulkier sets that aim to pivot into a hit before retaliating.
In Doubles, Sneasler is a staple at 31.37% usage, ranked 5th. Its blazing Speed and powerful Fighting STAB let it pressure a wide range of defensive cores, while Fake Out and Dire Claw add disruption and coverage. Unburden at 69.1% rewards aggressive play, especially when paired with the most common item choices Focus Sash at 53.6% and White Herb at 36.6%.
Playstyle:Fake Out at 22.2% drives the disruption core, paired with Close Combat at 25% and Dire Claw at 18.5% for steady offensive pressure. Protect at 10.8% provides longevity in extended exchanges, while Quick Guard at 7.7% shuts down opposing priority moves. Jolly at 47.1% with max Speed investment secures Fake Out priority, and Focus Sash feeds into Unburden to push Sneasler ahead of the opposing Speed tier.
