Speed tuned to outrun max 142 tier, remainder in bulk, a disruption/attacker build restricting opponents to create favorable boards. Protect to scout, then lock specific moves or status to break opponent tactics.
From overwhelming Speed, priority status moves, a role of binding opposing main/status moves to break cycles. Aim for disablement while STAB from 175 Sp.Atk deals steady damage.
Priority-using Pokémon
