Scizor - Question

Hi everyone!

I have 82% IV Scizor with FC/IH. It's stats are 12/13/12 (att/def/hp). With Mewtwo on its way - is it worth to try and get X-Scissor via charged TM? Or should I go for BP as fast attack? I have some TM's to spare.

What level is he? If around 30 and you have tms to spare I would go for it. I wouldn't invest too much dust on it though.

He's level 20 and my only one Scizor. Unfortunately I don't get too many Scyther's where I live. Guess I start stockpiling dust then.

You should wait and save, Scizor isn't a battle changer. You are rolling the dice that you'll get the move you want...well, if the Mewtwo you battle has confusion as a fast move, your Scizor is fried in seconds. Look into things you already have, maybe a Houndoom and as unbelievable as it seems, Vaporeons will be a better than decent option for many players

I got X-Scissor on the first try. When it comes to Houndoom I'm at disadvantage because of the water biome. Maybe I could hatch one but it's not likely to happen. Anyway, thanks for answering.

Against Psychocut/Hyper beam and Psychocut/Psychic Mewtwo an optimal Scizor is useful, but so are quite a few other options vs those movesets. ***After another look, Scizor double bug's main use is vs. Psychocut/HB Mewtwo, some of the other (non-Tyranitar) options don't hold up well against hyperbeam

I think I'll just roll the dice on charge attack and see what happens. Thanks for input. :)

Trouble is, you're odds of getting Night Slash are just as good as getting X-Scissor, and if you get NS, then there's a wasted TM, and a worse mon...:-/
