Scream Tail

Scream Tail is the fastest Perish Song-Baton Pass user in the entire meta, giving it a powerful niche as a Pokemon that can save your unfortunately Tricked/Switcherooed/Knock Offed Pokemon and get them KOed. Scream Tail also has a crazy support movepool, with Trick, Encore, Imprison, Thunder Wave, Trick Room, and Stealth Rock also being available to it. If Tricking Sitrus Berry, Scream Tail should have 1 HP IV to make that berry activate as rarely as possible. If using Black Sludge, 4 HP IVs make Scream Tail's max. HP divisible by 8 so it KOes itself sooner. Naive Scream Tail gets OHKOed by Gholdengo Steel Beam. Tera Dark lets Scream Tail ignore Pranksters, while Tera Ice makes Scream Tail 2x weak to Stealth Rock so it fits better as the Stealth Rock setter in Court Change teams.
