What do you think of Scizor, and what's the best build you've used with it?
I love Scizor, he's got to be one of the best things I've ever had. Maximized it's HP and ATK, and use:
Bullet Punch
U-Turn
Aerial Ace
Swords Dance
Never leaves my team. It literally eats Fairies for breakfast.
-
I see him too much whilst battling and that makes me not want to use him, I'm a bit of a hipster when it comes to picking my Pokemans.
-
If you leave Scizor in on a fire type, you're a terrible battler.
-
I like his design. Don't use him in battles though.
-
The best thing about scizor is you [b]know[/b] they're gonna bring out something with a fire move, making predictions too easy. I love both scizor and scyther although scizors typing is vastly batter I also don't care that this thread is kinda old
-
It's pitiful speed combined with it's [i]enormous[/i] weakness to the very common fire type attacks makes him horrible for competitive battling. Looks cool though.
-
It also trembles in fear of any fire Pokemon
-
Jigglypuff can beat Scizor anytime, anywhere.

Scizor (M) @ Choice Band Technician 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 Spd Adamant - Bullet Punch - U-turn - Pursuit - Superpower Top crack.

Scyther

I have a Jolly Scizor (EVs in Attack and Speed) with SD, Bug Bite, Bullet Punch, and Pursuit. I'll probably run it as a Mega or with Life Orb. I would've preferred it to be Adamant, but oh well.

Edited by Mega Blaziken: 6/16/2014 1:53:23 AMI go with an adamant, w/ technician, and a mega stone. Max Attack and HP. Bullet Punch Swords Dance U Turn Iron Head/silver wind Eats the Farries, and solves most problems with the types afraid of bugs
-
Scyther will forever be better in every way.
-
Scyther looks cooler
-
My non "EV-trained" hitmonchan would kick any scizors ass
-
My Ninetales rekts Scizors
-
What role does U-turn play in this strategy? Because it seems like everyone here has it included.
-
Scizor+technician+bullet punch=Hell
-
Adamant Scizor with Technician. Bullet Punch U-Turn Swords Dance X-Scissor I usually slap a Steel Plate on him to max out the damage of Bullet Punch, although I'll often switch to Leftovers to tank him out. Easily my favorite Pokemon.
-
Scizor looks cool as hell. I jizzed when I saw his shiny mega.
-
Bug types. HA.
-
One of the best out there. Not sure if I should give him his mega stone or a normal battle item though.
-
How about its mega?
