[SET COMMENTS]
Curse Garganacl is a sturdy wall that can spread passive damage and boost to win in the long term. It can take hits from Dragapult, Volcarona, and Iron Moth as well as sit on passive walls like Toxapex, Clodsire, and non-Grass Knot Amoonguss, giving it plenty of opportunites to enter the field. In addition to letting it contest with Attack-boosting foes like Dragonite, Dragapult, and Roaring Moon, Curse boosts Salt Cure's initial damage to threaten Pokemon like Corviknight, which would otherwise exhaust Salt Cure's PP with Pressure. Curse also works well with Earthquake, breaking past Covert Cloak Gholdengo, non-Haze Toxapex, opposing Garganacl, and Skeledirge's Substitute. Stealth Rock is a viable alternative if the team lacks a Stealth Rock user, since Garganacl tends to force multiple switches with Salt Cure and can outlast and annoy common entry hazard removers like Great Tusk and Corviknight. Tera Water lets it take on Kingambit, Gholdengo, Azumarill, and rain teams better, while Tera Fairy improves its matchup against Dragapult, Great Tusk, and Meowscarada, the latter of which can bypass Garganacl's boosts with Flower Trick. The EV spread prevents a 2HKO from offensive Great Tusk's Close Combat or Headlong Rush after Curse, even after its Leftovers is removed by Knock Off.

Curse Garganacl is a valuable asset for balance teams. Defensive teammates such as Corviknight, Toxapex, Skeledirge, and Clodsire cover threats like Great Tusk, Greninja, Iron Valiant, and Gholdengo, respectively. Skeledirge in return appreciates Garganacl switching into Shadow Ball from Dragapult and Hisuian Zoroark, with Tera Water variants dealing with Gholdengo and Water-types as well, while Toxapex and Clodsire are secondary checks to Dragapult, Volcarona, and Iron Moth, which keeps Garganacl moderately healthy early-game so it can have an easier time sweeping later on. Knock Off users such as Great Tusk and Meowscarada are crucial to remove Covert Cloak and Heavy-Duty Boots from Pokemon like Amoonguss, Clodsire, Gholdengo, Corviknight, and Slowking. Great Tusk, Meowscarada, Toxapex, and Clodsire can also set entry hazards of their own, either allowing Garganacl to forgo Stealth Rock or forming an entry hazard stacking core. Offensive teammates like Dragapult and Choice Scarf Iron Valiant and Meowscarada are great against offensive teams that contain the likes of Baxcalibur, Dragonite, and Roaring Moon—which can overwhelm Garganacl prior to boosting—and can clean up late-game in case Garganacl is unable to fully sweep. In return, Garganacl matches up well against defensive foes that they struggle with, such as Clodsire and Toxapex, especially with Dragapult bringing it into them safely via U-turn.

Garganacl leverages its valuable defensive profile and ability to spread passive damage between Salt Cure and potentially Stealth Rock to be a sturdy wall and long-term wincon with Curse. With Purifying salt and a huge overall bulk accentuated by its longevity from Leftovers and Recover, Garganacl gets plenty of opportunities to enter the field, which lets it take on hits from Dragapult, Volcarona, and Iron Moth as well as sit on passive walls like Toxapex, Clodsire, and non-Grass Knot Amoonguss. In addition to letting it contest with Attack-boosting foes like Dragonite, Dragapult, and Roaring Moon, Curse boosts its Salt Cure's damage outside of the periodic chip damage to threaten Pokemon like Corviknight much more easily—which would otherwise PP stall its Salt Cure with Pressure—especially as it can afford to accrue multiple boosts. Curse also work well in tandem with Earthquake, letting it break past Covert Cloak Gholdengo, non-Haze Toxapex, and opposing Garganacl. Stealth Rock is a viable alternative if the team lacks a Stealth Rock user, especially since Garganacl tend to force multiple switches with Salt Cure and can outlast and annoy common entry hazard removers like Great Tusk and Corviknight. Tera Water lets it take on Kingambit, Gholdengo, Azumarill, and rain teams better, while Tera Fairy improves its matchup against Dragapult, Great Tusk, and Meowscarada, the latter of which can bypass Garganacl's boosts with Flower Trick. The EV spread allows Garganacl to avoid the 2HKO from offensive Great Tusk's Close Combat or Headlong Rush from full health after a Curse boost after its Leftovers is removed from Great Tusk's Knock Off.

Knock Off users such as Great Tusk and Meowscarada are crucial to remove Covert Cloak and Heavy-Duty Boots from Pokemon like Amoonguss, Clodsire, Gholdengo, Corviknight, and Slowking, making them more vulnerable to Garganacl's Salt Cure and potentially Stealth Rock. The aforementioned Great Tusk, Meowscarada, Toxapex, and Clodsire also can set entry hazards of their own, either allowing Garganacl to forgo Stealth Rock or form an entry hazard stacking core with Garganacl to spread further chip damage. Fast offensive teammates like Dragapult and Choice Scarf Iron Valiant and Meowscarada are great against opposing offensive teams that contain the likes of Baxcalibur, Dragonite, and Roaring Moon—which can overwhelm Garganacl prior to boosting—and they are secondary wincons that can clean up late-game in case Garganacl is unable to fully sweep. In return, Garganacl matches up well against defensive foes that they struggle with, such as Clodsire and Toxapex, especially with Dragapult bringing it into them safely via U-turn.

We might be able to mention Skeledirge a bit more in one or both paragraphs. Earthquake lets you break Substitute from unterad Skeledirge and still be annoying against it when tera since you break the sub in 2 hits instead of the 3 hits Salt Cure takes to do so in. As a partner, Garganacl can take on Shadow Balls that are annoying for Skeledirge. Tera Water Garganacl in particular can take on Gholdengo, Dragapult, and Water-type attacks like you mentioned in your first paragraph.
