Hey everyone. Since we're getting all these "How to Beat Sneasel" tips. I thought I'd make my own! ^_^ But before we begin, let's look at it!
 
Sneasel on the Bench:
A Sneasel on the bench is a resting place to get Darkness Energy as a "Cleaner style." GOW is a choice. But Sneasel can always retreat and play a Gold Berry. I've come to the conclusion that Sneasel is very weak to ER on the bench. How come it's weaker on the bench then active? An ER delays their charging, they'll need two turns, ER it to block further attempts. Next turn they could play another Darkness that would only be blocked. Be sure to play your own Gym for Eco.
Sneasel Active:
From personal experience, Sneasel when played as something to kill fast, it's a job for card drawing power. What should you do? Lass or Trap it. Sneasel needs the Darkness quickly or a BBP could kill it fast. 60HP is almost dangerous for a BBP. And struggling to get a Darkness Energy isn't a great time to be in.
