talah
from the river to the sea
introduction:
This was actually conceived well over 2 months ago, probably closer to 3; Gliscor was just started to get hyped up so I tried to build something with it(you'll see the original form). I built something quite close to this version but still very different and certainly worse. I went with it to one of my best buddies , imso
Since then it's been used in various high rounds of OST, including OST finals, used a couple times in OUPL, other copies of it have been seen on ladder etc, so we figured we should RMT it. I say we because me and sorry have basically cobuilt this at this point, the credit is his as much as mine.
the team:
original building process:
As said above, Gliscor is the focal point of this team; SD was(and continues to be) an extremely good set atm and while the meta has certainly adapted to it(to a degree at least), as seen through things such as Ice Beam M-Latios, Firium Z/Grassium Z Heatran and more, it's still extremely potent and the sheer amount of games it wins is astonishing.
Rocks Clef was added almost immediately - it's the most consistent Stealth Rocker in the tier, especially when used with Calm Mind (which was the original version).
Toxapex was the next addition - more specifically Payapa Toxapex, which was chosen a bit later down the road.
Originally a Torn-T, the Flyinium Z + Defog set, this was gonna be the team's main Kart switchin and was to form a double Regen core alongside Toxapex.
These 4 absolutely screamed Spikes - Ferrothorn was natural choice, alleviating some Gren pressure off Toxapex as well as switching into Koko and being a Steel.
I was conflicted as to the last mon - originally my main thought was CB Weavile; it can trap Lele and Medicham, 2 mons that were looking very troublesome as well as be a pseudo-breaker. However, this left me without a flying resist and a member with no actual defensive utility - it also left me a bit exposed to Heatran, even though at the time the only variants around were Leftovers. Thus, I decided ScarfTar could be a good fit - flying resist, trapper that outspeeds threats like Lele and Medicham but also has some defensive utility.
further building with sorry:
This is what I took to sorry for further inspection, and he suggested a change that really transformed the team: Mega Latias over Tornadus-T, thus making the team:
Mega Latias achieves a LOT that Tornadus-T doesn't - more specifically, it has consistent recovery, switches into Zygarde arguably better than Clefable does, switches into Kartana almost as well as Torn does but also alleviated the Mega Medicham matchup a lot. At the time, this was running Draco for Medicham and Kyurem-B but this wasn't needed, as I'll get into in a bit.
The first big change for the team was Wish > Calm Mind on Clefable. While we do have a seperate version that has CM Clef because it beats pretty much any stall if played with half a brain, the Wish version is our go-to one and the one that does well in most matchups. It helped Gliscor and Tyranitar switch into Heatran, helped with Tapu Lele, Mega Pinsir, etc etc, it just was too good to pass up.
The next big change was Latias going Surf > Draco Meteor - this was changed around the time Z Heatran started popping up everywhere, now being able to switch into every variant without fear. The Kyurem matchup isn't quite as good but it is still very much manageable, same with Medicham(latter more so though, this team doesn't have a bad Medi MU at all)
The last big change was Gyro Ball > Knock Off on Ferrothorn. While this might seem a bit counter-intuitive, considering the rest of the team, this change(which is fairly recent actually) allows us a much more comfortable matchup vs a lot of things: - Torn can no longer Defog on Ferrothorn, Lele can no longer CM up on Ferro's face, Zygarde can't DD in front of it, it does more damage to Medi, does more to Mega Latios etc.

Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 244 HP / 44 Def / 68 SpD / 152 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Facade / Ice Fang
- Roost
I said what Gliscor does but I didn't say why it's so good at doing it. Well, for starters, it's one of the best Heatran switchins in the tier - it can switch into any non-z variant(asides the rare HP Ice Scarf which is very much scoutable anyway). Specifically, it absolutely abuses Leftovers Heatran(the most popular variant by a mile at the time) for free setup and to dismantle teams. Originally Knock Off in the 4th move slot, this was later changed for a better matchup against things like Tornadus and Zygarde. Both Facade and Ice Fang do that well and that's the first example of how flexible this team is; both of those moves are just as good and depend on your opponent and their habits. Besides Heatran, it can pivot into some Zygarde sets(like Choice Band and SubToxic), it can switch into CB Tyranitar's Stone Edge, it can beat Clefable 1v1, it can beat M-Scizor 1v1, it's a Ground type. Poison Heal means pivoting in it is free, as it negates Stealth Rock damage and it's not grounded, so it doesn't take any Spike damage. It's always going to be useful and it's always going to be able to put it amazing amounts of work. The EV spread outspeeds max speed Adamant Zygarde, allowing you to beat it 1v1 while the defense helps pivot into Mawile's Play Rough.

Even without CM, Clefable is still one of the most consistent Rockers in USM OU. Is Wish worth it? Well, yeah, in this team it is in most matchups it is. Even though you can no longer 1v1 Heatrans and sweep with this on its own, the defensive utility of Wish is unparalleled; it allows you to win most/all hazard wars, even though this team was great at winning them already. It adds a whole other layer of obnoxiousness and allows you to deal with would be threats much more easily; it basically allows you to make mistakes(albeit slight) and not be completely punished because of them, but also rewards outplaying, as you can put yourself in comfortable positions and get a lead or expand on a pre-existing one. That being said, CM is still perfectly usable and actually does better vs some styles, like Stall.
Clefable is this team's primary Hawlucha stop, it can pivot into Zygarde relatively safely, it can pivot into Medicham, Weavile, Lopunny and Magic Guard allows it to not be punished for it.
Another spread possible is using 252/200+/56, which allows you switch into Mega Latios from full safely, but it's not something imperative and the extra phys.def is just too useful.

Toxapex is the usual known douchebag - Regen allows it to pivot relatively safely into Greninja, it allows to scout a myriad of Pokemon such as Tornadus or Kartana, stops Scizor, stops CM Clef, stops CM Stored Power Latias, it can annoy teams with Scald burns, it can help with Lopunny. Payapa Berry allows it do even more however; it can now lure Lele, as Payapa allows it to eat a hit and Toxic back, lure Medicham, not be lured by things like Greninja; it can even do that on things like Alakazam and just generally gives you an extra cushion for those things. Lack of Toxic Spikes can be awkward at times but the extra safety is just so nice.
Oh it also allows you to not flop against Volcarona.

This set isn't exactly something incredibly innovative or anything, but nonetheless it's a deviation. Originally, Draco was used over Surf because of Gliscor + Tyranitar, however we realized the Heatran MU being better was just much more welcome than slightly improving MUs like Medicham and Kyurem, MUs already good enough, as well as giving it a better chance of not being trapped by Tyranitar. Thus, it is now a Heatran switchin as well! Ice Beam allows it to counter SD Landorus, every Zygarde variant outside of DD Dragonium-Z(already covered), does damage to grasses like Tangrowth and Bulu, nails opposing Gliscors and is just spammable. HP Fire makes you able to damage Ferrothorn and Scizor, so you're not fodder for Spikes/setup, respectively. It also OHKOs Kart from full regardless of Health(even pesky Timid Kartanas, just in case although that wasn't rly a thought; just a cool after-effect). It does quite a bit to Weavile too, which would be annoying, but also does quite a bit to Mega Mawile, something that would be INSANELY annoying otherwise.

Standard stuff. Best Spiker in the tier(for defensively oriented teams at least), the team's main Koko switchin, a Steel and another Ash Greninja switchin, taking weight off Toxapex's shoulders. The spread change is actually recent too, older than Gyro though. It allows it to eat 2 CB Zygarde Thousand Arrows after rocks, as well as a +1 Groundium Z from it. This change is actually fairly welcome, especially with Gyro - you actually annoy Zygarde now, quite a bit so too. The biggest gain from it, is of course, being able to Spike up on Tornadus-Ts. Previously, you didn't pose too much a threat to Torn; now, it's not safe at all and allows you a lot more breathing room with getting Spikes up.

This is kind of a controversial inclusion but I stand by it fully - it's just fantastic glue here. A solid Flying resist, another Fire Resist, can Pursuit trap very well still, but the main thing is the surprise factor it has(or had, I guess it's gonna be gone now, but even so). It allows you to pull off kills against Medicham and Lele or at the very least force 50/50s, it even Pursuits or just gets Latios/Latias to low health levels, which is really big for Gliscor - Gliscor hates the Lati twins cuz Ice Beam is something extremely common on them, especially Latios and Bandtar is the least safe Latios trapper. Fire Punch is a fine alternative and eases the Kartana + Pursuit matchup, but Kartana isn't as good as it used to be and Heatran + Pursuit is getting more traction, which EQ performs much better against. It also does way more to Mawile, something otherwise very annoying. The rest is self-explanatory, hopefully.
