Guys and Gals,
Please stop with the double/triple posting and adding pointless one liners. I've deleted a vast number in the last 30 minutes or so. Like another user said, this isn't a personal chat room, take it to discord for that (and there are plenty of relevant discords for conversation).
I'll be updating the OP with some more information (including some confirmations and stuff) when I get home from work (hopefully in the next hour or so).
I'll still be moderating during that time and I will start infracting people for poor posting etiquette!

Actually I take back what I said about Fezandipiti being like Moltres-G.
This thing is absolute hot garbage and gets worse the more I look at him.
-Of the Loyal Trio, he has the lowest ”highest stat” of 125 SpD where as Munki and Dogi both get 128 Atk and 130 SpA respectfully
-Its next highest stat is also the lowest and isn’t even above 100, having 99 Speed.
-While Dogi naturally has STAB for Steel types, and Munki has STAB for Poison types, Piti gets walled by both off its STABs
-Dogi also gets High Horsepower as coverage against Poison and Munki gets Focus Blast against Steels, Piti gets Technician Double Kick and Heatwave (these moves are coming off its 91 Atk and 70 SpA) for non-Tera Blast options against Steel
-It has literally no non-Tera Blast option against Poison what so ever
-Not like Double Kick off 91 Atk is strong either, even with Technician. It’s only effectively 90 BP
-If you are using Technician it also means you’re not using Toxic Chain either
-With unique type combos, Dogi at least gets Ice Punch for Lando/Gliscor, Munki still has Focus Blast for things like Ting-Lu as well as Grass Knot and Shadow Ball for Gholdengo, Piti still requires Tera Blast to hit a bunch of thing or decide between hitting Skeledirge, Arcanine-H, and Heatran
-Frankly it’s also not good as a wall either. It has Roost and can auto badly poison things by attacking, but it does nothing else as a wall
-It has even less means to threaten out Poison or Steel types, who have a free switch into it
-No Thunder Wave, Spikes, Will-o-wisp, Haze, Scald, or Knock Off
-Not like its one of those walls that can wear you down while having top tier bulk like Lugia or Dondozo, it has only alright physical bulk
I don’t want to make too bold if predictions but if a tier has any decently bulky Steels and Poisons, this thing will not do good in that tier. Without Tera Blast, this thing just gets hard walled by them. Even in RU you’re set up fodder for Klefki, Overqwil, Slowbro-G, and Revavroom when you’re defensive. You’re also really unable to break past a lot of Pokemon offensively because your best offense is 91 with your everything besides Gunk Shot being weak as hell.
Unless the movepool is incomplete and it has actually good moves to use, this thing is absolute Dogi shit and Munki dung. It could very easily end up in NU.

Teraing is detrimental for it, since it looses Adaptability on second stab
Is 12.5% boost in power really worth it? I'd rather Tera smth else for more impact
uhhh… it’s a 50 percent power boost? If it was 12.5 percent, choice items would be crud
Gliscor might actually be the new Great Tusk... this is literally off the top of my head of what it can run...

I'm talking about Tera. On Adaptability mons, it gives 12.5% boost to Tera stab. Teraing Adaptability mons is a huge opportunity cost for a marginal boost
Reminder that due to tox orb, this thing cant be affected by any other status conditions
During this time, Adaptability works only for the Tera Type (with ×1.5 becoming ×2 and ×2 becoming ×2.25).
They're right. Tera Adaptability is effectively a 12.5% increase rather than the 33.33% it normally is.

Huh. It’s 25 percent, but I did not know!
Glimmora literally cannot even do anything to it. Gets taunted and can't even Mortal Spin the rocks away otherwise it'll Poison Gli and even if it does, scor can just set then again with no risk to itself lmao.

Running 6 ground types isnt just for Monotype anymore.

Lando-T.

Either Sandy or Clodsire, i guess.
Together they make….

It also can reliably check Ice Spinner-less Great Tusk multiple times over, with a rock neutrality, substitute, Dual Wingbeat, Earthquake, poison heal, really anything is possible. A max attack gliscor at +2 has a 50% chance to OHKO choice band great tusk before Tera.
As a big fan of Gliscor I was worried when it lost one of its best tools in Roost, but it really doesn't seem to mind that. Especially since it got spikes as a trade off.
Tera Poison (and Steel) is probably not good on it. Since that would block its own Toxic Orb if you use it turn 1 of it being out.
