I agree that Cresselia seems like the best counter, lets look at some other stuff
SpD Hippo is up for the challenge (EDIT: No he is certainly not, major brain fart)
Good unless outrage happens first turn
If rain was allowed as part of the scheme--->

And more derpy but still a decent counter if you don't think they will immediately outrage: Max Physical Defense Chansey can take some hits because she is fluffy.
Chansey (F) @ Eviolite
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Protect
- Wish
- Seismic Toss
- Toxic
Draco Meteor: 23.29 - 27.27%
Outrage: 43.32 - 50.99%
Fire Blast: 13.35 - 15.62%
Earthquake: 24.14 - 28.4%
Best Scenarios: Chansey comes in on a Draco Meteor or a Fire Blast or EQ, you can expect the Outrage to come next, so just wish and protect until you get confusion damage to start, from there you can toxic or S-Toss, or wait for Salamence to switch. You can also switch to a steel resist to revenge once they are locked into Outrage. (IE Choice Scarf Jirachi)
Chansey comes in on an Outrage: This one is a bit tougher, with SR it's a fairly reliable 2hko, but protect first turn that you are in and hope that they get the confusion to start kicking in.
Not great, just thought I'd add some variety.

With normal battle conditions we cannot assume rain, if we could then Bronzong functions well as a counter.
