Answer 1

Sobble @ Choice Specs
Ability: Sniper
Level: 5
EVs: 116 Atk / 196 SpA / 196 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Surf
- Mud Shot
- U-turn
- Aqua Jet

Sobble might not have the best tools to take advantage of Sniper, but getting an occasional crit that does more damage is always good. Surf is STAB. Mud Shot is coverage. U-turn is for pivoting. Aqua Jet is STAB priority.

Answer 2

Sobble is by far the best Galar starter.

Sobble @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 116 Atk, 196 SpAtk, 196 Spe
Nature: Hasty (+Spe, -Def)
Ice Shard
U-Turn
Surf
Weather Ball

Pretty simple. The Scarf allows it to outspeed other priority users, and even though Sniper is a good ability, I like Torrent more. Hasty is so you can boost your speed without worrying about lowering your attack. Ice Shard is priority and hits for SE damage on grass types, U-Turn works well with the Choice Scarf, Surf is STAB, and Weather Ball is for coverage when it’s not raining.

Ability: Torrent
EVs: 36 HP / 116 Def / 36 SpA / 116 SpD / 196 Spe
