Question

Mine has the ability Technician. It knows:

Bug Bite: Good power with Technician, high accuracy, STAB, can use a foe's held Berry.
Aerial Ace: Good power with Technician boost, doesn't miss, STAB.
Sword Dance: With Technician, you have one powerful Pokemon.
Double Hit: A great move because it is upped in power by Technician and can break through Substitutes.

Man I love your movesets!

Why scyther?but since your going with it do quick attack x-scissor brick break and swordss dance because 1 swords dance plus quick plus technician equals one powerful attack!!!i kno I do it with my scizzor

Answer 1

Well, you've got STAB, you've got a sub-breaker, you've got buffs, and you've got a high level of abuse on Technician. Yep this looks good!

You've basically juiced every ounce of power you can get out of Scyther. No joke. :P

EDIT: Actually, Wobbuffet's idea sounds better, so get rid of Double Hit for Brick Break.

Answer 2

My opinion, you should have Brick Break for cover 4x weakness against Rock type! the rest is great enough...

Comments

Unfortunately a crapload of other pokemon uses rock attacks like stone edge... like a lot of fighting pokemon, a lot of pokemon with a high atk... every physical sweeper that is in the pokedex!

Answer 4

Gen V

Scyther (M) @ Life Orb

Trait: Technician

EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd

Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)

• Bug Bite
• Aerial Ace
• Pursuit
• Quick Attack

I wish this thing got Acrobatics. As is, you'll have to use Aerial Ace. Aerial Ace and Bug Bite are boosted by Technician and get STAB. Pursuit takes down Psychics and anything else switching out, and gets boosted by Technician. Quick Attack provides priority and gets boosted by Technician. Life Orb allows you to deal more damage. Standard sweeping EVs.

Bad thing about this is that imo it's unlikely that someone will switch. And with scyther's speed you don't need no quick attack. Also, pursuit and qa will only have a base power of 60 with technician while bug bite and areal ace (which are nice moves!) will have 90 base power + STAB

---

Quick Attack has priority however, which is invaluable. And in the actual metagame, people are switching out constantly.

Answer 5

Scyther

Suggested Item: Evolite; Suggested Ability: Technician

• Swords Dance:Boosts up attack when you get the chance.
• Aerial Ace:STAB. Gets powered through technician.
• Roost:Restores health. Very annoying with the evolite.
• Bug Bite:STAB. Powered by Technician.

Comments

You can use brick break instead of roost for coverage

---

I know, but it won't cover you from stealth rock, which is where most of his rock damage comes from. Rock moves are fairly easy to predict.

Answer 6

Scyther (M) @ Choice Specs

Role: Special Sweeper

Trait: Technician

EVs: 80 HP / 16 Def / 252 SAtk / 20 SDef / 140 Spd

Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

• Silver Wind
• Vacuum Wave
• Ominous Wind
• Hidden Power [Ground]

---

Silver Wind is 60 Power, So with Technician that becomes 90 power, with a 10% chance to raise all of your stats. Vacuum Wave is priority, with a power boost from Technician. Omninous Wind is coverage, power boosted from Technician, and a 10% chance to boost all stats. While HP Ground I butchered his Iv's to get 59 power, so it's about a 90 power attack.

Comments

My gosh, if you vote down. Give a reason.
This is a completely fine moveset, a little edgy due to the special aspect, but nothing to be downvoted for, Speed's aswell.

Answer 7

Item: Evolite
Ability: Technician
Nature: Jolly
Effort Values: 200 Attack, 252 Speed, 58 Defense

---

Pursuit/Night-slash
Aerial-ace
Brick-break
Swords-dance

---

Pursuit can hit escaping foes, Night-slash is for Coverage. Aerial-ace is awesome STAB. Brick-break is awesome coverage. Swords-dance is awesome boosting. You may wonder why I do not have a Bug type move, it is because I wanted to mix it up a bit and I have the same type coverage +Ghost type coverage.

Answer 8

Scyther,
TRAIT:TECNICIAN or SWARM
Item, Sitrus Berry or Oran Berry
Set:
Nightslash-Coverage
Vacume Wave- To clean your room (STAB)
X- Scizzor-STAB & Coverage
Silver wind- Coverage
