Swords Dance Gliscor is the most potent and efficient wincon in the tier, able to outlast almost all of its checks, courtesy of its its immense bulk and its ability Poison Heal, which grants it status immunity, passive recovery, and the ability to not worry about Knock Off crippling it. These traits also allow it to check and freely set up on a myriad of Pokemon such as Toxapex, Heatran, and Mega Diancie. Facade complements Earthquake, giving Gliscor near perfect coverage, and its high PP also lets Gliscor outlast checks like Skarmory. Roost is important, as it lets Gliscor stave off stronger attacks like Tapu Koko’s Hidden Power Ice and lets Gliscor scout Choice-locked Pokemon like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, and Kartana. Taunt can also be used over Earthquake to deny more passive checks such as Skarmory and Ferrothorn from boosting up with Iron Defense or Leech Seeding it, as well as beat opposing Swords Dance Gliscor and Taunt Heatran if it Terastallizes. However, this comes at the cost of significant special bulk due to the need to run more Speed investment, as well as the ability to instantly threaten Heatran. Swords Dance Gliscor is a frequent Tera user, as it can often be extremely difficult to revenge kill once it has Terastallized to beat any offensive check it has. Tera Fairy gives Gliscor an all-around great defensive type, letting it take neutral damage from attacks like Kyurem’s Freeze Dry and Darkrai’s Dark Pulse while still being neutral to Water-, Grass-, and Ice-type attacks. Tera Water, on the other hand, lets Gliscor resist these Water- and Ice-type attacks, completely flipping the matchup on Pokemon like Urshifu-R and Weavile. The given EVs maximise Gliscor’s Poison Heal recovery and special bulk, with the remaining EVs in Speed, but a Jolly nature with 20 Speed EVs can be used with Taunt to outspeed max Speed Modest Heatran. Swords Dance Gliscor works best on bulkier teams with solid entry hazard support from Ferrothorn and Clefable to help pressure the switches it forces. Pokemon like Kartana, Iron Valiant, and Mega Tyranitar that can cripple or pressure its checks, such as Skarmory, Mega Latias, and Ferrothorn, are amazing partners as well. Other setup sweepers such as Iron Defense Zamazenta and Calm Mind Mega Latias also appreciate Gliscor’s ability to take advantage of Galarian Slowking and Toxapex. If Gliscor has not yet Terastallized, it can easily be forced out by Water- and Ice-type attacks from Pokemon like Weavile, Urshifu-R, and Kyurem; this makes partners like Mega Scizor, Toxapex, and Corviknight that can stave off these attacks important.

Gliscor is one of the most effective entry hazard setters and Defog users in the tier due to its unparalleled longevity and bulk, letting it outlast or outright beat common hazard removers and setters such as Tornadus-T, Heatran, and Great Tusk. These attributes also provide Gliscor with numerous opportunities to switch in and either set or remove entry hazards against passive Pokemon like Toxapex, Clefable, and Landorus-T. Toxic helps with Gliscor's passiveness and puts its offensive checks like Great Tusk, Tornadus-T, and Urshifu-R on a timer, letting it outlast the former two, which seek to remove its Spikes. Roost is important for Gliscor’s durability, letting it constantly stave off attacks from Pokemon like Heatran and Mega Diancie throughout the match. Knock Off is an option over Toxic to cripple Gliscor’s switch-ins like Ferrothorn and Rotom-W, allowing it to further pressure them with Spikes. However, this does make Gliscor significantly more passive, making it generally inferior to Toxic unless desperately needed. Tera Fairy lets Gliscor pivot into Choice Specs Darkrai’s Dark Pulse in a pinch and check Raging Bolt consistently, while Tera Water lets Gliscor get off a Toxic or Earthquake on threats like Ogerpon-W and Urshifu-R to prevent them from spiraling out of control. Pokemon like Ogerpon-W, Zamazenta, and Iron Valiant appreciate Spikes chip damage helping to wear down their checks. Due to its susceptibility to strong Water- and Ice-type attacks, Toxapex, Kartana, and Mega Scizor are premier partners, which also also appreciate Gliscor checking Heatran, Mega Lopunny, and Tapu Koko.

Swords Dance Gliscor is the most potent and efficient win condition in the tier, able to outlast almost all of its checks courtesy of its ability Poison Heal granting it status immunity, passive recovery, and not worry about Knock Off crippling it, alongside its immense bulk. These traits also allow it to check and freely set up on a myriad a Pokemon such as Toxapex, Heatran, and Mega Diancie. Swords Dance lets Gliscor utilise the multitude of setup opportunities it gets to chip away at the opposing team, and eventually sweep. previous sentence kinda already says this but without directly referencing swords dance, making this just dex info otherwise Facade complements compliments compliment = "hi i like ur hair", complement = pairs well with etc Earthquake giving Gliscor near perfect coverage, and its high PP also lets Gliscor outlast checks like Skarmory. Roost is important as it lets Gliscor stave off stronger attacks like Tapu Koko’s HP Ice and let Gliscor scout choice locked Pokemon like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, and Kartana. Taunt can also be used over Earthquake to deny more passive checks such as Skarmory or Ferrothorn, as well as beat opposing Swords Dance Gliscor and Taunt Heatran if it Terastallises. However, this comes at the cost of significant special bulk, as well as the ability to instantly threaten Galarian Slowking and Heatran. gking seems less important here unless its ice beam, u taunt that anyways. i'd consider replacing it. Swords Dance Gliscor is a frequent Tera user as it can often be impossible to revenge kill once it has Terastallised to beat any offensive check it has. Tera Fairy gives Gliscor an all-around great defensive type, letting it blank attacks like Kyurem’s Freeze Dry and Darkrai’s Dark Pulse, while still being neutral to Water-, Grass- and Ice-type attacks. Tera Water on the other hand lets Gliscor resist these Water- and Ice-type attacks, completely flipping the matchup on Pokemon like Urshifu-R and Weavile. The added a space after the last sentence given EVs maximise Gliscor’s Poison Heal recovery and special bulk, with the remaining in Speed. A Jolly nature with 20 Speed can be used with Taunt to outspeed Modest Heatran. Swords Dance Gliscor works best on bulkier teams with solid hazard support from Ferrothorn and Clefable to help pressure the switches it forces. Pokemon that can cripple or pressure their shared checks such as Kartana, Iron Valiant, and Mega Tyranitar are amazing partners as well, as this eases Gliscor’s job tenfold. Other setup sweepers such as Iron Defense Zamazenta and Calm Mind Latias also appreciate Gliscor’s ability to put significant pressure on opposing teams. Both of these are also able to switch into the Water- and Ice-types that threaten Gliscor. honestly to avoid confusion i'd probs mention specific foes that threaten glisc instead of listing water / ice types (zama doesn't actually defensively check ice types that well tbh, u switch into weav once and then it just clicks axel the next time after switching out) If Gliscor has not yet Terastallised, it can easily be forced out by Water- and Ice-type attacks from Pokemon like Weavile, Urshifu-R, and Kyurem; this makes partners like Mega Scizor, Toxapex, and Corviknight who can stave off these attacks important.

Gliscor is one of the most effective Spike setter and Defog user in the tier due to its unparalleled longevity and bulk, letting it outlast or outright beat common hazard removers and setters such as Tornadus-T, Heatran, and Great Tusk. These attributes also provide Gliscor with numerous opportunities to switch in and either set or remove entry hazards on passive Pokemon like Toxapex, Clefable, and Landorus-T. Toxic prevents Gliscor from being passive and puts its offensive checks like Great Tusk, Tornadus-T, and Urshifu-R (rc) on a timer, which lets it outlast the former two who seek to remove its Spikes. Roost is important for Gliscor’s durability, letting it constantly stave off attacks from Heatran and Mega Diancie throughout the match. Knock Off is an option over Toxic to cripple Gliscor’s switch-ins, mention specific examples; important ones i'd say are like impairing ferro and other mons reliant on their item to function and further pressure them with Spikes. However, this does make Gliscor significantly more passive, making it generally inferior to Toxic unless desperately needed. Tera Fairy lets Gliscor pivot into Choice Specs Darkrai’s Dark Pulse in a pinch, while Tera Water lets Gliscor get off a Toxic or Earthquake on threats like Ogerpon-W and Urshifu-R to prevent them from spiralling out of control. The given EVs maximise Gliscor’s Poison Heal recovery and special bulk, with the remaining in Speed.

However, this comes at the cost of significant special bulk, as well as the ability to instantly threaten Heatran. Swords Dance Gliscor is a frequent Tera user as it can often be impossible is this fine? i feel like you should restate this to be less dramatic like (often be impossible -> often be difficult) to revenge kill once it has Terastallised to beat any offensive check it has. Tera Fairy gives Gliscor an all-around great defensive type, letting it blank attacks like Kyurem’s Freeze Dry and Darkrai’s Dark Pulse, while still being neutral to Water-, Grass- and Ice-type attacks.

Pokemon that can cripple or pressure their shared checks specify the shared checks here, otherwise this seems vague such as Kartana, Iron Valiant, and Mega Tyranitar are amazing partners as well, as this eases Gliscor’s job tenfold dont think this part is needed, but feel free to keep it if you want to. Other setup sweepers such as Iron Defense Zamazenta and Calm Mind Latias surely theres a better example than latias, also this sentence is vague in general would cut also appreciate Gliscor’s ability to put significant pressure on opposing teams. If Gliscor has not yet Terastallised, it can easily be forced out by Water- and Ice-type attacks from Pokemon like Weavile, Urshifu-R, and Kyurem; this makes partners like Mega Scizor, Toxapex, and Corviknight who can stave off these attacks important. mention that bc gliscor is such a meta defining threat, ice coverage / lures can be relatively common
