Bro, what is this stat spread? What its function? It does NOTHING x'D
Daaaaamn glastrier will be so good in doubles, looks amazing as a trick room mon. It has insane bulk and phys. attack. And Spectrier will probably be amazing in ou. Pretty fast and has amazing special attack.
Base 30 speed. THIRTY.
EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Game Freak just hates Ice types. There's no excuse for this one. Spectrier is gonna be bonkers because it's fast af and hits hard. Glastrier? Welcome to RU, you will not enjoy your stay. Here's your complimentary Gallade Close Combat, please block it with your face.
Ice types stay getting fucked over as the type with the worst Pokemon. God damnit
dude its a doubles mon, this thing will be insane in trick room. Its like stakataka, slow as f but hits hard and can take a hit.
I'll go out on a limb and say it tanks a hit just long enough to set up Nasty Plot.
Remember that move is widely available now, and the new Moltres is Dark.
What we have all been waiting for
I have the feeling Yveltal is going to have a lot of work this generation.
Glastrier could still have a niche in Doubles as a Trick Room abuser.
Wow Base Form Calyrex is so subpar LMAO.
The Rider forms are gonna be GOAT in Uber though. (Well Shadow Rider. Ice Rider no)

I don't think Regidrago will be Guzzlord-tier bad, but it'll still definitely be a lower-tier pick. 80 Speed isn't that bad in the lower tiers and could make for a good Scarfer + DD sweeper if it gets it, and with that massive HP stat means it can tank hits better than most other lower-tier scarfers/sweepers, making it harder to revenge-kill.
To sumarize.
Glastrier is utterly trash, since it's Game Freak, I'll asume they won't even make an effort to give it Grassy Glide (if it gets grass typing), probably won't even have SD. Palete-swap Rapidash is nuts, regis are both trash altho Regieleki may find salvation, if just a bit.
Birds are trash, specially Moltres, that spread doesnt acomplish anything, i'm still trying to figure out how that think is even gonna do damage. Zapdos is nuts, but Zapdos has been nuts since generation 1, no surprise there.
EDIT: Nvm. Psychic being the comodin type of GF since ever.
