Hi everyone! I'm looking for some opinions and/or suggestions for a team that I'm trying to build. I'm new to team building, so I could use some help. I only have 2 Pokemon selected:
1. Granbull @ Choice Band w/ Intimidate Nature: Adamant EVs: 252 Attack, 252 HP, 4 Defense -Play Rough (STAB boost) -Fire Fang (Bug or Grass/Steel types i.e. Ferrothorn or Scizor) -Crunch (counters Gengar) -Earthquake (Poison and Steel-types)
2. Gliscor @ Toxic Orb w/ Poison Heal Nature: Jolly EVs: 252 HP, 252 Speed, 4 Defense -Roost -U-turn -Taunt (good for lead imo) -Knock Off (also good for lead imo)
I'll take ANY suggestions you guys might be able to give me. Thanks a bunch!

I don't think Roost would be a good option on Gliscor if you're already running good HP and Poison Heal. Having only. Knock Off and U-Turn is going to make you weak to a lot of types, especially when U-Turn makes you switch out. I'd suggest Stone Edge or Earthquake. Also, Fire Fang is a pretty weak move, but if you're concerned about encountering tons of Ferrethorns and Bug/Steel types, then I guess it's not a bad idea.

Are you trying to build for the OU tier, or are you just building a team for general Wifi battles? I agree with swampert12894 about the Gliscor. The typical bulky Gliscor set that comes to mind for me would be something like Protect, Substitute, Earthquake, and Toxic/Taunt/Ice Fang/Stone Edge. It is great for stalling because you can usually stay behind a substitute once you get one setup thanks to Protect and Poison Heal. Gliscor can do a lot of other things too though.

Just don't run a Gliscor and you'll be fine

A nice Strategy with a Gliscor that I've seen:
Gliscor->Toxic Orb->Poison Heal Turn 2: Fling-> Acrobatics. And it gets stab. 8)
