Gligar (Japanese: グライガー Gliger) is a Ground/Flying-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Gligar is a small, purple, bat-like Pokémon. It has blue wings like a flying squirrel. Gligar has scorpion claws and a tail with a stinger on the end. Gligar has long, pointed ears and triangle-shaped eyes. Gligar is considered to be a distant cousin of either Zubat or Skorupi due to its bat- and scorpion-like traits.
Gender differences
A female Gligar has a smaller stinger.
Special abilities
Gligar knows a small handful of Poisonous attacks, such as Poison Sting and the rarely known Cross Poison. Gligar can also use a few Bug-type moves, like Fury Cutter and U-turn. While Gligar can learn Ground- and Rock-type moves typical to a Ground-type Pokémon, its abilities as a Flying-type are limited. Most notable is the fact that Gligar can't learn Fly.

Trivia
- While Gligar was unable to learn Earthquake by TM until Generation III, a Gligar that did know Earthquake was a reward in Pokémon Stadium 2 for beating the rival in Round 2.
- Gligar and Gliscor are the only Pokémon that who are dual-typed that have immunity to one of their own types (Ground moves do nothing to Template:Type2s).
- Gligar's colors vary between games and the anime. It is a light blue-violet in its sprite artwork and game artwork, regular purple in the high-grade console games such as Pokémon Battle Revolution, and powder-pink in the anime.
