The problem with the Nasty Plot Infernape is that it also has Close Combat. If you're going to work so hard at getting its Special Defense high, there's no reason to crap all out by using a Physical move.

I think you are missing the point when it comes to *Close Combat.
The fact that it's
Physical is what makes it so good. Let me ask you this...
When you use *Nasty Plot ~ What is the number one poke you are hoping they don't switch in?
Answer:
Blissey
Well would you look at that. *Close Combat aka
"Death to Blissey" is sitting right there to clear the way. I see how you want the whole build to have
Synergy by benefiting from *Nasty Plot but you are actually better off with it being
Physical.
Think of it like 3rd Gen
Dragonite / Gengar packing *Focus Punch to compliment <Bolt / Beam>. It was to eject
Blissey / Snorlax from stopping your fun.

Head back to Thunder Punch for Electivire, with all those physical moves.

Again what is it to counter?
Answer:
Skarmory
~Hey would you look at that. He has a higher Defense than Special Defense. Maybe we should attack that lower defensive stat. Do ya think?~

I'm switching out Infernape for Gliscor with Knock Off, Roost, Aerial Ace and Earthquake.

Can't argue there. Although i'd keep
Infernape and lose
Ryperior as
Gliscor is a
Physical Wall.
Gliscor is one of my favorite new additions to my team although i use *Ice Fang to help his
Physical Sweeper Counter ability.
