![]() Even with a fragment of the stone (which Caitlin did create), the affable engineer could easily create a suit that either utilizes the speed or enhances his vibe abilities to make him appear faster than he actually is. All he has to do is vibe around until he finds it and, voila, he's now a speedster. Out of everyone in the series who could sniff out a Philosopher's stone, Cisco is the guy. So how would Cisco find the stone and become a speedster? That's not something Barry, Zoom, or Hunter Zolomon could do without help. Let's not forget that Savitar, like Cisco, can travel worlds with relative ease to destroy other speedsters. Since then, we've seen Cisco make some solid strides with improving his abilities, but has he reached his full potential yet? I find it very hard to believe Cisco's abilities are completely lost without the use of his hands, and even if they were, the Philosopher's Stone could restore those powers. After seeing Earth-1 Cisco in action, Reverb makes the snide comment that our lovable S.T.A.R Labs employee hasn't even discovered his full potential. This is something that calls all the way back to Earth-2 Cisco/Reverb that appeared in Season 2 of The Flash. He also has a relationship with Caitlin that goes far beyond either of their respective friendships with Barry, and I'd like to think seeing Cisco's face behind Savitar's mask would get her to quickly change Caitlin's tone, even in Killer Frost form. Wally killing his own sister just to hurt his future brother-in-law Barry doesn't make too much sense, but Future Cisco definitely has beef with his former best friend. Earth-2 Hunter Zolomon was another good guess, but he's a slave to the Speed Force as Black Flash, as seen on Legends Of Tomorrow, so that leaves Wally and Cisco. Ronnie seems like a good option, but he can't be aware of everything that happened in the above paragraph, and the Flashpoint timeline isn't relevant to him in any way. No, it's not HR, since there's no way he would draw that kind of reaction from Caitlin. Obviously Savitar is a meta, and we already know what (present) Barry and Caitlin are up to, so who is left? Even if you make it all a little vaguer, the only living people aware that an alternate timeline existed, as well as the events that happened in them, begin and end with the core cast of The Flash. Cisco is not only aware of everything in the present, he also has knowledge of the future events via his Vibe abilities, and when you add Barry explaining to him the alternate timeline in which he used to live, this solves the issue behind how Savitar knows the entire story behind Team Flash up to this point.
