As I said in the other thread, Gliscor is better off with 252 HP/184 Def/72 Spe. That spread is wasting away its incredible physical bulk.
While Pokemon with massive Defense can go specially defensive, like Forretress, Skarmory and Hippowdon, Gliscor is one exception because of its 4x weakness to Ice.
To elaborate, Forretress and Skarmory can go specially defensive because some of their resistances come from the special end. Hippowdon can also do that because of its massive HP and Defense. However, Gliscor can't do specially defensive sets well because while it has massive Defense, its HP isn't very high. It's also weak to Water and Ice, as I said before, which often come from the special end.
