Meet Scyther, the renowned Pokémon of Bug and Flying types! It's a sight to see Scyther out in the 1st generation battlefield. There were no known abilities or equippable items back in the Red/Blue Pokémon games. It is weak to Electric, Fire, Flying, Normal, Poison, and Rock-typed attacks. Discover Scyther's movesets below and unleash its potential in battles!
Scyther thrives as a renowned Physical Sweeper perfect for single battles. It's meant to overwhelm foes with lethal physical power. In gen one, Scyther played quite differently. In the dark days prior to Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
◆ Double-Edge is a physical 100-base power Normal-type move (has 1/4 recoil). ◆ Slash is a physical 70-base power Normal-type move (high critical hit ratio). ◆ Wing Attack is a physical STAB-boosted 35-base power Flying-type move that deals damage. ◆ Swords Dance is a status move (raises your Scyther's attack by 2 stages). ◆ Toxic is a status move (badly poisons the target).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula. It is simply calculated using typing weaknesses and resistances from the selected type-matchup modifier along with STAB (if applied) to help sort through and give a general idea as to how powerful certain moves might be towards that selected typing after modifiers are applied. Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
