With a maximum CP of 3,080 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Gliscor is a strong competitor in various formats. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Gliscor in 2026.
Gliscor's Attack stat is 185 (Good). A decent Attack stat that allows Gliscor to contribute meaningful damage.
With 222 Defense (Excellent) and 181 Stamina (Excellent), the total stat product is 588. This gives Gliscor reasonable durability in battle. Compared to other Ground-type Pokémon, Gliscor's stat distribution favors defense.
The best moveset for Gliscor depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Fury Cutter (Fast) with Earthquake (Charged) for maximum DPS. This takes advantage of STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) which provides a 20% damage boost for matching-type moves.
For PvP (GO Battle League), energy generation and coverage matter more than raw DPS. Gliscor has 3 Fast Attacks and 4 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Gliscor can be a viable pick. For Great League, lower Attack IVs (like 0/15/15) are preferred to maximize stat product under 1500 CP. The Ground/Flying typing provides useful matchups against Ground, Poison, Fighting-type threats while being weak to Ice, Water types.
In Master League, Gliscor faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
