Gliscor is a large, mainly blue-purple vampire bat-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, partially clad in an insect-like carapace. Its legs have two toes and a slightly darker circular coloration on the underside, and its tail has two barbs, giving its tail the resemblance of a vampire's fangs. Its arms are red with thin striations and are completely detached from its black wings, and each is ended with large pincers. Its ears have discernible, red, chambered ear insides, and its eyes are yellow. It has six visible fangs in its mouth, and its waist, like its arms, is red and striated. Gliscor's body resembles an open mouth, with the pointed protrusions coming from its upper torso resembling fangs, further illustrating its vampiric qualities.

Gliscor feeds on the blood of other Pokémon species; grabbing prey using its tail, then biting their necks with its long, sharp fangs. It is even said to take pride once its prey is fully drained of blood. As shown in ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]'', Gliscor, along with its unevolved form {{p|Gligar}}, can emit a sort of sound wave in order to detect obstacles and fly around them, similar to {{wp|Animal echolocation|echolocation}}. Its legs appear to be not suitable for walking, so it can only perform short hops when on the ground. Gliscor hangs upside down while sleeping, much like other bat-like Pokémon, and it is nocturnal. It is capable of soundless flight; however, its wings cannot be flapped to the same extent that other Pokémon's wings can. Like {{p|Jumpluff}} and {{p|Wingull}}, Gliscor uses winds and updrafts to glide from place to place. When there is no wind, Gliscor climbs to the top of tall trees using its sharp raptorial claws and then glides from place to place. This practice is similar to flying squirrels. Gliscor is {{a|Poison Heal|highly resistant against poisonous substances}}. It is extremely rare, but sometimes it is found in thick pine forests, swamps, and even alpine regions. | Gliscor feeds on the blood of other Pokémon species; grabbing prey using its tail, then biting their necks with its long, sharp fangs.

Gliscor (Japanese: グライオン Glion) is a dual-type Ground/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
It evolves from Gligar when leveled up while holding a Razor Fang during the night.
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to Game data→Evolution data for these details.)
Biology
Gliscor is a large, mainly blue-purple vampire bat-like Pokémon, partially clad in an insect-like carapace. Its legs have two toes and a slightly darker circular coloration on the underside, and its tail has two barbs, giving its tail the resemblance of a vampire's fangs. Its arms are red with thin striations and are completely detached from its black wings, and each is ended with large pincers. Its ears have discernible, red, chambered ear insides, and its eyes are yellow. It has six visible fangs in its mouth, and its waist, like its arms, is red and striated. Gliscor's body resembles an open mouth, with the pointed protrusions coming from its upper torso resembling fangs, further illustrating its vampiric qualities. It has a tendency to hang upside down from trees while watching its prey.
Gliscor feeds on the blood of other Pokémon species; grabbing prey using its tail, then biting their necks with its long, sharp fangs. It is even said to take pride once its prey is fully drained of blood. As shown in Riding the Winds of Change!, Gliscor, along with its unevolved form Gligar, can emit a sort of sound wave in order to detect obstacles and fly around them, similar to echolocation. Its legs appear to be not suitable for walking, so it can only perform short hops when on the ground. Gliscor hangs upside down while sleeping, much like other bat-like Pokémon, and it is nocturnal. It is capable of soundless flight; however, its wings cannot be flapped to the same extent that other Pokémon's wings can. Like Jumpluff and Wingull, Gliscor uses winds and updrafts to glide from place to place. When there is no wind, Gliscor climbs to the top of tall trees using its sharp raptorial claws and then glides from place to place. This practice is similar to flying squirrels. Gliscor is highly resistant against poisonous substances. It is extremely rare, but sometimes it is found in thick pine forests, swamps, and even alpine regions.
Evolution
Gliscor evolves from Gligar.

In the anime
Major appearances
Ash's Gliscor
In Fighting Fear With Fear!, Ash's Gligar evolved into a Gliscor while using Gary's Razor Fang to save Ash from falling into a canyon. In Mastering Current Events!, Ash left Gliscor with McCann so it could train and grow stronger. In Working on a Right Move!, Gliscor returned to help Ash in the Lily of the Valley Conference.
Other
Gliscor debuted in Riding the Winds of Change!, where it was caught by Paul. In Chim-Charred!, it went up against its pre-evolved form and won with a Guillotine. It reappeared in Aiding The Enemy!.
In An Elite Coverup!, Bertha's Gliscor was used to destroy the machine attached to Team Rocket's balloon.
Minor appearances
In To Thine Own Pokémon Be True!, Theodore's Gliscor competed in the Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament.
Pokédex entries
|
In the manga
Pokémon Ranger: The Comic – Shadows of Almia
A Gliscor appeared in PRV4 as one of the Pokémon Kincaid controlled.
Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl
Multiple Gliscor appeared in PDP18.
A Gliscor appeared in PDP24.
- Main article: Ash's Gliscor
Like in the anime, Ash owns a Gliscor in Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl.
Pokémon Adventures
Diamond battled a wild Gliscor on his way to Iron Island in Grumpy Gliscor. It proved to be a tough opponent to beat with its Ice, Thunder, and Fire Fang attacks, but it was eventually defeated by Tru's Razor Leaf.
In Colress Machine, Blake was revealed to own a Gliscor, nicknamed Glisott.
In the TCG
- Main article: Gliscor (TCG)
Trivia
- Gliscor is lighter than its pre-evolution, weighing in at only 93.7 lbs. (42.5 kg), while Gligar is 142.9 lbs. (64.8 kg). This is despite nearly doubling in size during evolution, from 3'07" (1.1 m) to 6'07" (2.0 m).
- Gliscor, along with Electivire, Magmortar, and Tangrowth, were the only Generation IV Pokémon that explicitly required the use of a Generation III game in order to be available until the release of Pokémon Platinum. In this case, Gligar were only available through dual-slot mode with Pokémon Emerald.
- Gliscor can be seen as a parallel to Weavile. Both were introduced in Generation IV, both of them are dual-types, have the same base stat total, have Special Attack as their lowest stat, have double weaknesses (Gliscor to Ice, Weavile to Fighting), evolve from Pokémon that were introduced in Generation II, and do so by leveling up at night while holding items that contain the word "razor" (Gligar evolves with Razor Fang, whereas Sneasel evolves with Razor Claw).
Origin
Gliscor appears to be based on a combination of gargoyles, scorpions, and vampires, which in turn share traits with bats. It may also be based on the scorpionfly. Additionally, it shares features with the amikiri, a yokai with lobster or scorpion claws and the ability to fly.
Name origin
Gliscor and Glion may be combinations of glide and scorpion.
