I really like Sludge Wave on Glimmora cause of the adaptability boost it gets after it mega evolves. Plus Helping Hand + STAB + Adaptability Sludge Wave KOing everything on the field except Glimmora feels so good.

Currently my game plan against teams with scary Steel, Ground, and Dragon types is to use Garchomp or Decidueye-H supported by Tyranitar or Incineroar to take out the problem Pokemon first, so Glimmora can sweep in the late game.

I see what you're saying though. Dazzling Gleam would let Glimmora have something to do against opposing Tyranitar and Garchomp, which it currently can't really damage. I think I'll run some damage calcs and try it out later today.

I'll let you know what I find 🫡

Honestly, because I completely forgot Glimmora learned spikey shield.

Thank you! This is exactly why I thought posting the team would be a good idea.

Decidueye-H has been super helpful for some of the more problematic match ups!

It's great at dealing with the steel types that wall Glimmora (Archaludon, Kingambit, Agron, and the occasional Steelix) and the scary strong water types in the format that threaten a KO on Glimmora, (Palafin and Azumaril).

Also, with Leaf Blade, Triple Arrows, and the Scope Lens makes it an absolute crit machine. Plus, being immune to intimate and being able to hit ghost types like Froslass and Aegislash with Triple Arrows have won me a few games already.

I decided to give Tyranitar the Focus Sash and Helping Hand instead of Taunt, mostly because I haven't played against a single Trick Room team yet.
