Gliscor or Garchomp- Which is better for Pokemon Diamond?
Sep. 25, 2016I like the sinnoh games alot so I’m playing through Pokemon Diamond. You get Gible and Gliscor around the same place so I’m just curious as which would help me clear the games easier.

In competitive, Gliscor and Garchomp have different niches- Gliscor being a physical wall while Garchomp is a physical attacker- but in-game, where defense is not needed, Garchomp does everything that Gliscor does better.
The only reason I could think to use Gliscor over Garchomp is for Cynthia, because between Roost and Swords Dance Gliscor could setup on Spiritomb and then sweep. But this role could be delegated to a better Pokemon like Scizor, who also has access to both Swords Dance and Roost,andresists Spiritomb’s STAB moves. Plus, this strategy isn’t needed to beat Cynthia anyway.
