Gliscor is a Ground / Flying-type Pokémon, No. 472 in the National Pokédex, introduced in Generation 4 (Sinnoh region).

Its story
Lifestyle
It hangs upside down, grabs prey with its tail, and drinks their blood. Nocturnal and rare, it glides in silence and evolves from Gligar.
In the anime
Ash's Gligar became Gliscor by using Gary's Razor Fang so Ash would not fall into a canyon. It later returned to help him at the conference.
Name origin
Gliscor joins glide and scorpion. The design mixes scorpion and vampire, and the nobusuma, a monstrous bat that glides.
