No. 212: Scizor

Scyther is one of my favorite Pokemon, and certainly a star of gen 1. But then he evolved. He evolved and everyone held their breath, because they weren't sure if anything would be able to live up to Scyther's geatness.

but then Sciozor came into the world, and the universe breathed a sigh of relief and exhaultation. "yes" cried I, and "yes" cried the universe. A Yes to life, a Yes to progress, a Yes to badassery. "yes" cried the babies still in their mother's wombs, "yes indeed."


So yeah, Scizor is red, streamlined, badass head shape, mouth claws for hands, and is pretty much a metallic steel ninja. He's actually slower the Scyther, but not ass-slow, and his defense makes up for it IMO. Scizor actually has the highest attack stat of any bug type, which is pretty awesome.

Scizor is the reason why I count bug-types as my favorite type. There's a lot of Caterpies and Wurmples, but the Scizors and Pinsirs make up for it.

Also, how badass would Scizor look if his shiny sprite was black and white? that would be hardcore as SHIT.

Overall: 10/10
