What are some of the most viable reflect and light screen users in gen 8 OU?

For a screen setter, I’d recommendGrimmsnarlbecause of it’s access to prankster and both screens.Grimmsnarl@Light ClayAbility:PranksterNature:AdamantEVs:252 HP/252 Atk/4 Def•Taunt/Fake Out•Reflect•Light Screen•Sucker Punch

You could also tryAlolan Ninetalesfor Aurora Veil.

You could also tryTapu Koko

Hope this helps!

Regieleki @ light clayEVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpeTimid nature- volt switch- reflect- light screen- rapid spinI’d say this is the second-best screen user in OU, after Tapu Koko. It’s the fastest Pokemon in the whole game, so its screens are usually put to use immediately (unlike the slower screen users, which often waste one of their 8 turns because nobody moves after they set their screen). Volt switch lets you switch to whichever sweeper you want after you see what the opponent switches to. Rapid spin removes hazards.source

Clefable @ Light ClayAbility: Magic GuardEVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpDCalm Nature- Seismic Toss / Toxic- Soft-Boiled- Light Screen- Reflect

The reason why you don’t see a lot of Light Screen and Reflect Clefable is because it has better moves, such asStealth rock, Moonblast, Wish, Knock off, Aromatherapy, Heal Bell, Thunder Wave, Teleport and Trick. Though it still works as a Screen setter, it just has better options.

Tapu Fini @ Light clayAbility: Misty SurgeEVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpDCalm NatureIVs: 0 Atk- Light Screen- Reflect- Defog- Moonblast / Scald

Tapu Fini is in the same situation as Clefable; it has better moves.Haze, Taunt, Toxic, and Calm Mindare notable examples. Light Screen and Reflect also work, just not as effectively.

Blissey (F) @ Light ClayAbility: Natural CureEVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpDBold NatureIVs: 0 Atk- Light Screen- Reflect- Soft-Boiled- Toxic

Blissey actually utilizes this set better than Tapu Fini and Clefable. You do have to give up Stealth Rock, but I think that it’s a fair trade.

Grimmsnarl @ Light ClayAbility: PranksterEVs: 92 HP / 252 Atk / 164 SpeAdamant Nature- Reflect- Light Screen- Taunt- Spirit Break

Though Grimmsnarl isn’t in OU, its your best option.This set is even recommended by Smogon.
