[SET COMMENTS]
Pelipper provides vital utility for Water teams due to its secondary Flying typing and decent natural bulk along with its ability, Drizzle, enabling rain strategies. Hurricane blows away problematic Fighting- and Grass-type threats such as Okidogi, Ogerpon-W, and Sinistcha. U-turn allows it to safely pivot in teammates like Barraskewda and Urshifu-R while pivoting out against threats like Tornadus-T. Finally, Knock Off removes items from checks to Pelipper and its teammates like Hisuian Goodra's Leftovers and Toxapex's Rocky Helmet.

Teammates like Barraskewda and Kingdra make for excellent partners for Pelipper, as they benefit heavily from rain enabling Swift Swim, which allows them to outspeed and handle threats such as Corviknight, the Ogerpon formes, and Kyurem. Barraskewda can also naturally outspeed and handle foes like Flutter Mane and Iron Valiant for Pelipper. Swampert helps Pelipper out by handling special threats and Electric-types like Flutter Mane, Greninja, Sandy Shocks, and Regieleki. Swampert can also provide Stealth Rock to wear down foes such as Skarmory and Lokix along with using Flip Turn to safely bring Pelipper in to enable rain. Toxapex can assist in handling powerful Grass- and Fighting-types Pelipper cannot handle like Brambleghast and, if Toxapex is running Rocky Helmet, Sneasler, as well as Fairy-types like Enamorus; it can also spread poiso with Toxic to wear down foes such as Iron Hands and opposing weather setters such as Hippowdon. In return, it enjoys Pelipper being able to come in on Ground-types like Great Tusk and Excadrill, which otherwise easily handle Toxapex. Hisuian Samurott can threaten Ghost- and Psychic-types like Gholdengo and Hoopa-U with Ceaseless Edge along with using Sucker Punch to pick off faster targets like Dragapult and Spectrier. Choice Specs Greninja can check problematic Fairy- and Grass-types like Iron Valiant and the Ogerpon formes with Sludge Wave while using Extrasensory to deal with Poison- and Fighting-types like Clodsire, Toxapex, and Iron Hands. Choice Scarf Urshifu-R enjoys the safe entry granted by Pelipper, and in return, it can handle Dark- and Steel-type threats such as Ting-Lu, Choice Specs Greninja, and Hisuian Goodra.

Other Options
=============
Water
-----------
Surf can be used over one of Pelipper's utility options, providing it with a better offensive output and the ability to break Steel-types like Gholdengo. This does, however, force Pelipper to drop either Knock Off or U-turn, and most of the time, Pelipper would prefer its teammates to handle these threats instead.

Pelipper provides vital utility for Water teams due to its secondary Flying typing and decent natural bulk along with its ability, Drizzle, enabling Rain strategies for Water. Hurricane blows away problematic Fighting- and Grass- threats such as Okidogi, Hisuian Lilligant,(again problem with this example is that we are risking pelipper to sleep + hilligant most common item is focus sash which is a weird predicament; I would add like Waterpon, trade value is nice.) and Sinistcha. U-turn allows it to safely pivot in teammates like Barraskewda and Urshifu-R.(but what are we pivoting out of tho) Finally Knock Off removes items from checks to Pelipper and its teammates like Hisuian Goodra's Leftovers or Toxapex's Rocky Helmet.

Teammates like Barraskewda and Kingdra make for excellent partners for Pelipper as they benefit heavily from Rain Drizzle enabling Swift Swim allowing them to outspeed and handle threats such as Corviknight, the Ogerpon formes, Raging Bolt, and Kyurem. Barraskewda can also naturally outsped and handle foes like Flutter Mane and Iron Valiant for Pelipper along with using Flip Turn to bring it in safely to reset rain.(Kinda awkward as we are providing speedy ass pivoting which puts pelipper in a awkward spot, would just provide what mons barra is pivoting moreso on switch ins to it.) Kingdra meanwhile provides an Electric neutrality and can remove foes like Latios and Archaludon with Draco Meteor. (unnecessary as you already provided what its doing under rain, this just looks like what its doing outside of rain only beneficial mon we taking is Archaludon but at that point just provide it with the other examples by corvi.) Swampert helps Pelipper out by handling special threats and Electric-type like Flutter Mane, Iron Moth,(we die to Specs Energy Ball. and even if your predicting a discharge its still awkward as it can just click specs energy ball on anything, comfy.) Sandy Shocks, and Regieleki. Swampert can also provide Stealth Rocks to wear down foes such as Skarmory and Lokix along with using Flip Turn to safely bring Pelipper in to enable rain. Toxapex can assist in handling powerful Grass- and Fighting-types Pelipper cannot handle along with Fairy-types like Brambleghast, Sneasler if Toxapex is running Rocky Helmet as a item, and Enamorus along with spreading Toxic to wear down foes such as Iron Hands and opposing weather setters such as Hippowdon;(ASC) while enjoying Pelipper being able to come in on Ground-types like Great Tusk and Excadrill whom otherwise easily handle Toxapex. Hisuian Samurott can threaten Ghost- and Psychic-types like Gholdengo and Hoopa-U with Ceaseless Edge along with using Sucker Punch to pick off faster targets like Dragapult and Spectrier. Choice Specs Greninja can problematic Fairy- and Grass-types with Sludge Wave like Iron Valiant and the Ogerpon Formes while using Extrasensory to deal with Poison- and Fighting-types like Clodsire, Toxapex, and Iron Hands. Choice Scarf Urshifu-R enjoys the safe entry granted by Pelipper and in return it can handle Dark- and Steel-type threats such as Ting-Lu, Choice Specs Greninja, and Hisuian Goodra.
