Well, if in her own setting Pippi has a suitcase full of gold and is the strongest girl in the world, then obviously when she shows up at Hogwarts, she has a wand that can do anything and is the strongest witch in the world.
In fact, any Pippi At Hogwarts story is going to start out reading like the Mary Sueiest Mary Sue that ever Sued, as Pippi bests the Slytherins by being richer and stronger, bests the Gryffindors by seriously not being afraid of anything ever, and bests the Ravenclaws by getting to do anything she wants despite basically being functionally illiterate. (Pippi herself goes directly to Hufflepuff; any arguments out there?)
The only thing that saves her from making the story unbearable is that she is so.very.odd. In a wizarding world with Pippi in it, the defeat of Voldemort would get about two lines as the accidental outcome of an attempt to transform all the books in the library into peppermint sticks.
