Best Pokémon Synergies to Pair with Sneasler in Pokémon Champions

Sneasler benefits from teammates that help to keep it alive through shield, support and redirection.

• Incineroar: Provides Intimidate and positioning support. Generally considered to be the best Pokemon in the current Meta.
• Alolan Ninetales: A great support that can control the weather, setup Aurora Veil and deal with Pokemon like Garchomp and other Ground Pokemon.
• Sinistcha: Another great support option that can redirect attacks with Rage Powder and help stay on the field against Pokemon with Earthquake.

Potential Counters for Sneasler in Pokémon Champions

Sneasler is vulnerable to Psychic, Flying & Ground Pokemon and can be very susceptible to getting One-Hit.

• Garchomp: Is rarely killed quickly by Sneasler and can knock it out with one Earthquake.
• Aerodactyl: A strong Flying Pokemon that can out-speed Sneasler and knock it out with Dual Wingbeat.
• Farigiraf: Often runs Armor Tail which stops Fake Out and has access to many Psychic moves along with Trick Room.

Teams that are able to control the speed game or that have strong Psychic types will be a problem for Sneasler, but in general, this is one of the strong Pokemon in the format.
