Raid guide
How the fight goes and what to bring.
Do not bring Ground, Bug, Electric damage — Gliscor resists it and your lobby will run out of time before it runs out of HP. Everything in the counter list above already hits for super effective damage, so pick the six highest entries you actually own and power up.
On the catch screen, use Golden Razz Berries and aim for Excellent curveball throws.
FAQ
How many trainers do I need to beat Gliscor?
Gliscor can be beaten by 2 high-level trainers with optimal counters. 4+ is comfortable, and 5–6 is the safe number in a public lobby where you cannot see anyone's team.
