Screen Cleaner

Screen Cleaner is a disruptive entry ability that immediately removes all screen effects from the battlefield upon switching in. When a Pokémon with this ability enters battle, it clears Light Screen, Reflect, and Aurora Veil from both sides of the field, regardless of who originally set them up. This makes it a powerful anti-setup tool that can completely nullify an opponent's defensive preparations in a single switch.

The ability's indiscriminate nature means it affects your own team's screens as well as the opponent's, requiring careful consideration in team building and battle timing. This dual-sided effect prevents it from being a completely risk-free counter to screen teams, as you'll also lose any defensive benefits your own team may have established. The ability only triggers upon entry, so screens set up after the Pokémon has already switched in will remain unaffected until the next Screen Cleaner user enters the field.

Mr. Rime stands as the sole possessor of this ability, giving the Ice/Psychic-type a unique niche in competitive play. While Mr. Rime's overall stats may not make it a top-tier threat, Screen Cleaner provides valuable utility against popular defensive strategies, particularly those relying on Aurora Veil setters like Alolan Ninetales. The ability makes Mr. Rime a consideration for teams struggling against bulky offense builds that use screens to facilitate setup sweepers.
