CB aerial ace does a min of 43% and zap cannon will do about 39% and cause paralysis. You'll still probably kill me but at the cost of being crippled or taking about 50% damage doesn't really make gengar a true counter.

OK, I'll try it then.

Gliscor@Leftovers
Impish
252hp/252def/4atk

EQ
Knock Off
Aerial Ace
Roost

Immune to Zap Cannon, barely scratched by Hammer Arm or Aerial Ace, and Explosion would eliminate the threat, fulfilling the definition of a counter.

explosion halves defense making your gliscor's defense 191 and with defense as low as that, explosion will do a min of 383 damage [and gliscor caps at 364]

It's hard to 'truly' counter something using explosion. I was assuming that by making you destroy yourself, you would have been successfully countered
 
If shedinja is neutral to ghost then it's a counter too. Since no one is countering gliscor someone counter this.

CM's up in Cune's fat face, and hits back with T-Bolt. HP Ice for the obvious Choice Band Garchomp switchin.

eh, this hardly counters that Rhyperior. SDed Stone Edge is a likely OHKO, definate with Stealth Rock, and you can't even 2HKO with Earthquake unless you get really lucky. I suppose you can Roost stall out Stone Edge PP, but that still doesn't seem like a safe plan. If SR are down and you switch in on a Swords Dance, then you're in trouble.

but whatever, I'll counter Gliscor
