Grassy Seed Grookey is one of the most potent offensive threats in LC, able sweep at the drop of a hat with its ample coverage! Utilizing Grassy Seed in conjunction with Grassy Surge to gain a Defense boost, this Grookey set is able to grab a Swords Dance and easily sweep late-game using Grassy Glide after opposing walls have been sufficiently chipped. Because Grassy Seed is immediately used, Acrobatics has 110 Base Power, letting Grookey beat Grass-types that would otherwise wall it such as Foongus and the rarer Morelull and Pumpkaboo. Drain Punch lets Grookey hit Steel-types like Pawniard and Ferroseed for super effective damage. Grookey's ability to pressure Ground- and Water-types like Choice Scarf Mudbray and Carvanha makes it a good partner to Pokemon like Ponyta and Tyrunt; they also pressure Grookey's checks like Koffing and Natu. Diglett is another great partner, as it traps problematic foes like Ponyta. Entry hazard support from Dwebble and Pawniard also helps Grookey sweep by chipping bulkier foes into range of its attacks.
