The only Gren meta is to go Smokescreen/Surf. Just because you have ranged attacks doesn't mean you have to play him like a standard ADC. He actually plays more like an Assassin archetype approaching unsuspecting and preferably isolated targets with his Smokescreen invisibility to get into Melee Range because Greninja actually gets super damaging autos when in melee range that deal HP% damage, so they even kill tanks. Also, as with any assassin, play with cojones and hard engage your enemy. If played right and with the surprise factor, you woll outdamage nearly any enemy Pokemon. Surf auto resets if it kills whatever it hits, so if timed properly you can just be dashing around like a rat on crack while shitting out tons of damage and leveling enemy teams that are at low HP because it also deals more damage the less hp the enemy has. Surfalso comes with some pretty substantial heals, so if you play your card right, you can level an entire enemy team and walk out with most of your health. He's busted, but mostly if you git gud. Might fit your "jump straight at the enemy cus i'm a tank" playstyle too
