Pelipper

Pelipper fills the rain setter and speed-control role simultaneously. Choice Scarf pushes its Speed to 192, exactly one point above Meowscarada, so Soak lands before the cat can act. Once Soak converts the target to Water-type, Meowscarada's guaranteed-critical Flower Trick becomes a super-effective nuke. Timid nature and 31 SpA SPs let Weather Ball hit hard under Rain. Tailwind and U-turn give Pelipper additional utility when the Soak combo is not the right call, making it a flexible pivot throughout the game.
