Strategy Overview

Despite its high Speed and access to Play Rough, Glameow finds itself outclassed by other fast offensive Normal-types like Bunnelby, Taillow, and Meowth. Glameow simply is not as powerful as its competition, and its paltry bulk means if it doesn't OHKO the opposing Pokemon it is likely taking huge damage. There is very little that can justify running it in favor of other more consistent, powerful, and versatile Normal-type cleaners.
