It quite needed Gliscor as an evo and I really like it. It's one of those Pokémon whose type had always confused me, I could have sworn it was part Poison earlier. But I can't complain about this one: use two in a double battle and Earthquake away!
I don't use two of the same Pokemon in one team. But using a Gliscor with Earthquake alongside a Flygon with the same move in a double battle sounds like a good idea. Or how about a Gliscor with Earthquake and a Zapdos with Discharge?
Okay, that sounds like a whole lot better idea. I think I actually trained two Aerodactyl with Earthquake for doubles on my FireRed at some point. (The game doesn't have a lot of double battles sadly. A shame, I like those.)
I used it in Hoenn's Battle Frontier and it's really strong ... until you encounter a special sweeper, then you're dead. Luckily those NPCs don't switch around their Pokémon very often, so you're fine using them.
You should definitely try it out sometime. And if you don't want to spend a Metal Coat to it, you can always catch wild ones in Iron Island for example. :)
I still occasionally forget they changed all that, but I guess it was necessary to rebalance the game upon adding fairies. It's quite the pain for Pokémon such as Metagross and Jirachi though. :(
