Offering players the choice of either staying as Scyther throughout the match or evolving into Scizor, this release effectively brings two separate play styles and experiences to the game. That being said, there is much to learn about these Pokemon, requiring that you know the mechanics and recommended builds for both Scyther and Scizor.
Scyther and Scizor each have their own specific strengths and weaknesses, and as a result, their own recommended play styles. When you reach level five with this Pokemon, you will have the choice between two moves: Bullet Punch and Dual Wingbeat. This will determine whether you stay as Scyther for the entire match or evolve into Scizor; Dual Wingbeat pairing with Scyther, and Bullet Punch pairing with Scizor.
Scyther plays more of an assassin role, possessing moves that are especially effective when used against opponents with lower HP. With this in mind, combined with this Pokemon's lower endurance stats, it is best to play as Scyther alongside your allies. For this reason, it is recommended that you choose to play in either the top or bottom lane.
On the other hand, Scizor functions as more of a brawler. When opting to play as this Pokemon, use your close combat attacks to constantly damage the opposition, while also regenerating health through the abilities of your moves. You can find success when playing as this Pokemon in any of the three paths, proving to be a more well-rounded choice compared to Scyther.
