If the creature loses flying before Shadow Puppeteers's last ability resolves, the creature will still become a red Dragon with base power and toughness 4/4 in addition to its other colors and types until end of turn. It won't gain flying.

2023-09-01wotc

If the creature stops being a creature before Shadow Puppeteers's last ability resolves, it will become red until end of turn in addition to its other colors. Since it's not a creature, it won't gain the Dragon subtype, and it won't have base power and toughness 4/4.

2023-09-01wotc

Shadow Puppeteers's last ability overwrites any previous effects that set the creature's power and/or toughness to specific values. Any power- or toughness-setting effects that start to apply after Shadow Puppeteers's last ability resolves will overwrite this effect.
