New allrouder team

Alright! I've got a gliscor. Now I need 2 more pokes to finish the team. How about a Forretress for an opener?

Not happening. Forretress has fallen out of favor because of the prominence of Defog wiping away the hazards it set up.

Defog is bad for a Choice set, as it leaves it locked into a single move while it's in battle:
-U-turn
-Bullet Punch
-Superpower
-Pursuit/Knock Off
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 248 HP/252 Atk/8 SDef
Item: Choice Band
Ability: Technician

or
-U-turn
-Bullet Punch/Knock Off
-Defog
-Roost
Nature: Impish
EVs: 248 HP/8 Atk/252 Def
Item: Scizorite
 
How about a not-to-be-♥♥♥♥led-with Shuckle?

No. Don't bother with it. While it may seem tempting to use with its high defenses, its low HP, lack of offensive presence, bad defensive typing and tendency to be setup bait make it not worthy to be used.
 
My suggestion is dont go offensive. Thats what I try to run and I get nailed to the way by people that half way know what they are doing.
