Grimmsnarl debuted alongside Impidimp and Morgrem during the 2025 GO Wild Area event. The creature is presently obtainable through Nagasaki’s GO Wild Area 2025 via two methods, with a worldwide launch scheduled for the Global GO Wild Area 2025.
Strategies for Acquiring Grimmsnarl
Players have dual pathways to obtain this Dark-Fairy hybrid:
- Capture Impidimp (found in wild areas or 5km eggs) and evolve it using 25 candies for Morgrem, then 100 candies for Grimmsnarl
- Successfully conquer a Tier 6 Max Raid against Gigantamax Grimmsnarl
Obtaining the Shiny Variant
The rare chromatic version appeared alongside the initial GO Wild Area release. Trainers can pursue it through Shiny Impidimp evolution or Raid victories, though repeated attempts may be necessary due to low encounter rates.
Mastering Gigantamax Battles
Overpowering Gigantamax Grimmsnarl requires strategic team building. Its dual typing makes it vulnerable to Steel, Poison, and Fairy attacks. Recommended battle formations include:
- Zacian (Crowned Sword) with Metal Claw (Primary Attacker)
- Metagross utilizing Bullet Punch (Secondary Assault)
- Blissey employing Pound (Support Role)
Effective coordination with other trainers proves crucial when facing this formidable opponent in Max Raid Battles.
