Utility Gliscor (Flying)

by Neko

Gliscor is unable to enter Galar, so it will undyingly support its teammates in NatDex Monotype! With Poison Heal and excellent bulk, Gliscor is able to outlast entry hazard setters such as Ferrothorn and Jirachi, and Defog away Stealth Rocks. Earthquake threatens Heatran and Nidoking. In conjunction with Taunt, Gliscor turns into a decent stallbreaker able to wear down Toxapex and Ferrothorn. On the other hand, Knock Off debilitates switch ins such as Porygon2 and Celesteela. The provided spread for Gliscor allows it to outspeed and threaten Nidoking, while also being able to survive a V-Create from Victini. The remaining EVs are invested in Special Defense to improve its matchup with Toxapex and survive a Hidden Power [Ice] from Expert Belt Tapu Koko. Wallbreakers such as Mega Charizard Y and Flyinium Z Tornadus-T appreaciates Gliscor's defogging capabilities as it lets them be able to come in multiple times to threaten the opposing team. In return, Mega Charizard-Y deals with Kyurem and puts Water teams in an uncomfortable position, while Tornadus-T forces out Mega Gallade. Dragon Dance Mega Aerodactyl appreciates Gliscor's ability to wear down walls such as Toxapex and to keep entry hazards out. Skarmory or Celesteela forms a sturdy defensive core with Gliscor, with Skarmory being able to stack entry hazards against the opposing team and punish contact moves from Mega Lopunny and Urshifu-T with Rocky Helmet, while Celesteela checks Fairy-types such as Mega Diancie.
