Gliscor (Japanese: グライオン Glion) is a Ground/Flying-type Pokémon. It is the evolved form of Gligar.
Contents |
Biology
Physiology
Gliscor are large, vampire bat-like Pokémon. In evolution, the Gligar's leg-like claws have become more defined as legs, and its tail now has two barbs, as opposed to Gligar's one, giving its tail the resemblance of vampire's fangs. Its arms have also become completely detached from its wings. It has similar looking pincers to Scizor. Gliscor's body resembles an open mouth, with the pointed protrusions coming from its torso appearing to be fangs, further illustrating its vampiric qualities.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Gliscor's abilities are the same as Gligar's, except Gliscor's attacks are more powerful and it can now learn the Elemental Fang attacks. As a fully evolved Pokémon, Gliscor can learn Hyper Beam and Giga Impact.
Behavior
Habitat
They are extremely rare, but sometimes are found in thick forests and swamps.
