Pokemon Legends: Arceus is set in olden times in the Pokemon world when it was rare to find harmony between people and Pokemon. Set in Hisui, modern-day Sinnoh, you will join the Galaxy Expedition Team (Galaxy Team for short) as a member of the Survey Corps stationed in Jubilife Village. You will be tasked to meet every HIsui Pokemon species to complete the region’s first-ever Pokédex.
In the game, there are certain Pokemon that players cannot catch or are hard to catch in the wild. One of the methods to catch these Pokemon is through evolution. Gliscor is one of those Pokemon, and in this guide, you will learn how to evolve Gligar into a Gliscor!
Gligar into Gliscor
Gliscor is a Ground and Flying-type Fang Scorpion Pokemon that looks like a large blue-purple vampire bat with black wings, arms that look like large pincers, and a tail with two barbs. According to its Pokedex entry in the game, Gliscor glides without a sound on the pitch-black wing and sinks its sharp fangs into the throat of its prey. Then, it has a look of satisfaction after it has entirely drained its prey of blood.
Gliscor can only be found in Primeval Grotto in the Coronet Highlands, and Gliscor can be found in this location at all times of the day and in every weather condition. It is worth noting that the Gliscor that can be found in the location mentioned is an Alpha Pokemon. Other than that, Gliscor can also be found in Massive Mass Outbreaks in the Coronet Highlands.
However, if you would rather obtain a Gliscor through evolution, the player can catch one by evolving a Gligar using a Razor Fang during the nighttime. To do that, the player must first know where to find a Gligar.
Gligar
The player can find a Gligar in the Coronet Highlands (in Primeval Grotto, Clamberclaw Cliffs, Celestica Ruins, and Cloudcap Pass) and in the Alabaster Icelands (north of Arena’s Approach and in the Glacier Terrace). Gligar can be found in these locations at all times of the day and in every weather condition. Aside from that, Gligar may also be found in Massive Mass Outbreaks in the Coronet Highlands.
If you plan on distracting it with food before catching it, it is worth mentioning that Gligar’s preferred foods are Springy Mushrooms, Dazzling Honey, Hearty Grains, and Plump Beans.
Suppose you plan on battling a Gligar first before catching it. In that case, it is worth noting that, as mentioned, Gligar is a Ground and Flying-type Pokemon, which means it has a weakness to Water-type and especially Ice-type moves (super effective), a resistance to the Bug-type, Fighting-type, and Poison-type moves (not very effective), and immunity to Electric-type and Ground-type moves (no effect).
Razor Fang
Now that the player has caught a Gligar, all that is needed to evolve a Gligar to Gliscor is a Razor Fang. There are several ways that the player can obtain a Razor Fang:
The player may obtain a Razor Fang by defeating or catching certain types of Pokemon, specifically Gligar.
The player can purchase a Razor Fang for 10,000 Pokemon Dollars from Ginter at the Gingko Guild Shop between the Galaxy Hall and the player’s headquarters. However, Ginter will call it a Mystery Fang. Unfortunately, the items that the Gingko Guild Merchants sell are not the same so purchasable items may vary. To change the items that Ginter is selling, the player must first catch 20 Pokemon.
The player can also purchase a Razor Fang from the Trading Post near the Training Grounds for only 1400 Merit Points. The player can earn Merit Points by returning lost satchels all over the Hisui region.
Other than that, the player may find some Razor Fangs on the ground inside of Space-Time Distortions, so make sure to check out the items inside them.
Out of all the methods mentioned above, the easiest way to obtain a Razor Fang is by purchasing one from the Trading Post for 1400 Merit Points.
Finally, Gliscor!
After catching a Gligar and obtaining a Razor Fang, the player can now evolve a Gligar into a Gliscor!
To do that, this is what the player must do:
- Put the player’s Gligar in the Player’s party by talking to the Galaxy Member near the tent on any of the Base Camps, selecting “I want to see my Pokemon” on the prompt, or heading to the Pastures in the eastern part of Jubilife Village.
- Then, ensure that the Razor Fang is in the player’s Satchel. If not, the player can access the Item Storage in any of the Base Camps or the Item Storage near the Front Gate in the northeastern part of Jubilife City and move the Razor Fang to the player’s Satchel.
- After that, make sure that the time of day is nighttime. If not, the player can rest by interacting with the tent or the Galaxy Member in any of the Base Camps or by sleeping on the bed in the player’s quarters on the right side of the Ginkgo Guild Shop until nightfall.
- Afterward, return to the game and press the up directional button to open the player’s Satchel.
- Select the Razor Fang, select “Use” on the prompt, then select Gligar from the player’s party to use the Razor Fang on Gligar.
- Confirm on the prompt to evolve Gliga. Then, just like that, Gligar will evolve into a Gliscor!
Now that the player has a Gliscor, the player can try to use the Gliscor to complete other requests, missions, or Arceus’ task for the player, which is to catch ’em all!
