Strategy Overview
Pelipper's stats are very mediocre, but the addition of Drizzle has made it into a much more reasonable threat. With a STAB Hurricane, Pelipper excels over Politoed as an offensive rain setter that is capable of hitting Grass-types hard, which have traditionally given rain teams problems. It also has access to Tailwind, providing great offensive support. However, Pelipper completely relies on Drizzle to function, becoming much easier to deal with when the weather is changed. It also has a 4x weakness to Electric, which when combined with its stats, make it have a hard time running a bulky set compared to Politoed.
Below is a sample set. This set is likely to be the standard, but it will be expanded upon and updated as the metagame progresses.
