Secret Power can be reobtained quite easily by the time Shuppet becomes available and often has a decent chance of inflicting paralysis to impede/block opponents. There's a decent variety of items and other moves to consider, as well. However, another team mon with Reflect or Light Screen might come in handy for late game shenanigans.
