Some Pokémon in The Teal Mask are exclusive to Pokémon Scarlet or Violet, with Gligar and it’s evolution, Gliscor, being tied to Scarlet. Learning how to catch Gligar and evolving it into Gliscor depends on having the right version. Once trainer is in the right version of Kitakami, we can get into the aforementioned alongside the item needed for evolution and the best competitive build for Gliscor.
How To Catch Gligar¶
Head to the Paradise Barrens fast travel point to find Gligar freely roaming around the general area. When encountering always try a Quick Ball before attacking, but if that fails use a mid-level 60s Pokémon or a high-level Pokémon that knows Flase Swipe and a status-effecting move. One caught it’s time for trainers to find a Razor Claw.
How To Evolve Gligar Into Gliscor¶
Trainers will now need a Razor Claw to evolve Gligar into Gliscor, which can be purchased from a Delibird Presents store in Paldea for $15,000, although trainers will need to have atleast four Gym Badges for the item to appear. Trainer will also need to wait until nighttime to evolve Gligar into Gliscor, so make sure Gligar is holding a Razor Claw and await night time in either Kitikami or Paaldea. Please note that the day and night cycle of Kitikami is fixed until the main story is complete.

Gliscors’ Poison STAB build is a solid strategy, specifically with the Fling and Toxic Orb combo dealing a strong Poison condition. Toxic Orb poisons the holder, which makes Gliscors hidden ability, Poison Heal, heal a trainers Pokémon rather than taking damage. Swords dance provides a sharp increase in Physical damage, with Acrobatics doing massive damage is an opponent isn’t holding an item. This is a great option when an opponent uses up their berries or Focus Stash, for example. Earthquake is a great option to deal massive damage both in team and single battles whilst providing good coverage for this build.
