Parmenides because he refuted his retarded doctrine of the forms and also showed how Parmenides was a satirist trying to illustrate how the word games of the philosophers lead to absurdity

Philebus possibly. That and Anaximenes set up the “infinity as potentiality” thing which Aristotle picked up.

The Sophist and its Parricide is another dialogue related to what he is talking about. If everything were Being as Monists suppose then falsehood would itself be an impossibility. Fun is had with this and how falsehood works - is a lie a mischaracterization of something already existing and thus not a lie?
