Strategy & play

How Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Not a main attacker — its job is Ability-based draw/search. Run it as a consistency hub and protect it, because opponents will target the engine.
  • Needs Darkness Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Darkness type, weak to Grass ×2 — a Grass attacker doing ≥160 effectively one-shots it.
  • A two-prize Pokémon — each KO gives the opponent 2 Prizes, so a single bad trade can lose the race. Back it with single-prize attackers.
  • A Stage 2 — without Rare Candy you lose ~2 turns setting it up, and it’s gust-bait before it’s online (you must draw Marnie's Morgrem first).
  • Seen in 1% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 2 copies.

How to beat Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex

  • Exploit its Grass weakness — ≥160 damage one-shots it.
  • KO it to choke their draw / search engine.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
