It is decent for Gym defense though resisting Ground (heavily) and Fighting, two common Gym attackers.

Gliscor PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League

Gliscor is one of the most brutally efficient Pokémon in the Great League meta. It has everything going right for it: a superb typing, handy resistances, good bulk, moves that are fast, hard-hitting, bait shields, and also offer a guaranteed DEF nerf to the opponent.

As such, Gliscor is feared tremendously, taking down almost every except Water types (still beats all Ground/Water Pokémon), Ice types, and Altaria, Cradily, and Morpeko.

Regardless of the matchup, it can lower their DEF without much effort or hit a quick Acrobatics for high damage. Also, Gliscor is ideal for nearly any role, and can even serve as a mid-match switch-in for Ground, Bug, Electric, Fighting, and Poison types (all prominent Great League opponents).

🟡 Ultra League

While a little less dominant in the Ultra League, Gliscor continues to thrive in combat. It struggles against the obvious threat of Water and Ice, as well as Fairy types. However, it is extremely good against Poison, Steel, Fighting, and also Water Pokémon like Tentacruel, Ludicolo, and Gastrodon. Gliscor is also effective against Dragons with types that Gliscor has an advantage over, such as Kommo-o and Zygarde Complete.

Gliscor is a great pick for the Ultra League, and with its tacky moveset, it fits in any role.

🟣 Master League

Gliscor is not good for the Master League by any means.
