BDSP Gliscor

[Marnie]

Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 244 HP / 144 SpD / 120 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Roost
- U-turn / Knock Off
- Defog / Stealth Rock


After being denied entry to Galar throughout the generation, Gliscor has returned to BDSP OU with a bloodthirsty vengeance! Its unique defensive typing, insane longevity, and nifty utility options establish Gliscor as one of the best Pokemon in the tier, fitting nicely on various team archetypes, ranging from bulky offense to stall. U-turn gives a free switch to frail yet terrifying wallbreakers such as Weavile, Latios, and offensive Starmie that feast on Gliscor's switch-ins like Tangrowth, Slowbro, and opposing Gliscor. Alternatively, Knock Off removes Leftovers from the aforementioned Slowbro. Gliscor also provides entry hazard control as either a setter or remover, and it is one of the tier's best Defoggers due to its positive matchup against common Stealth Rock setters like Heatran and Jirachi. Additionally, once Toxic Orb is activated, it becomes a status absorber, allowing it to safely switch into Breloom's Spore and Heatran's Lava Plume. Teammates such as Rotom-W and Scizor forms a solid pivoting and defensive core with Gliscor, covering its crippling Ice weakness. The latter also appreciates Gliscor's ability to check Heatran and Magnezone.

A lot of tang dont run Lefties anymore to check daunt, i would just mention Slowbro. Remove Blissey from the rocker list because most are running Ice Beam so glisc loses to it, just Heatran and Jirachi is already fine.

rest is good 1/1

1/1, kinda weird that the sentence about knock only mentions bro and not opposing Gliscor, but the character crunch is real.

Was initially planning to mention something along the lines of “..and opposing Gliscor greedy enough to switch in before their Toxic Orb has activated” but it gets too wordy and I cant for the life of me trim it down significantly, and yeah lotsa text already so had to cut em

Thanks for the GP check! (Will update the OP later tonight)

Hey adem (or other QC members)
With Gengar's ban, do I just remove its mention completely (and just let it be Weavile) or replace it with something else?
Thank you

Edit: Planning to change it to 'Choice Specs Latios' instead, let me know if it works

just Latios should be fine, since while Specs is the most used set, its not the only one
(or if you wanna even add someone else, offensive Starmie also does just that)
