Scizor Team Feedback Request for VGC

Dual wingbeat scizor

Anything but pokepaste ntw

Btw

And venu fr

?

Why no screenshots

Fr

But idk

Confusong

I’ve been sending them and not in trouble but I guess ok

Hold on I got a screenshot. My switch was being dumb and not letting me get the photos lol

Thats the team atm

Scizzor does very well with friendguard mousehold

So maybe take lopunny out for mousehold?

Why don’t you explain your team and we can go from there. Both mouse and bunny are normal types but they do sort of different things. Lopunny is a very offensive pokemon. With fake out, scrappy, you are hitting almost everything for neutral to SE damage. Mouse can be offensive with pop bomb but is not as offensive as lopunny. Can be a bulky support set with friend guard and follow me.

Scizzor is also an amazing pokemon but struggles against zard or any fire pokemon

So bascu and garchomp are good i would say

so basically I was just looking to use scizor/chomp core to counter the zard/glim/ floette teams that are everywhere. Chomp also does okay into arch which has been pretty popular. I use whim as my set up/ disrupter, lopunny for fake out and heavy damage, basc for heavy damage/ speed priority, and armaroug was just a fun spicy pick that has a good match up into the giraffe and sneasler which are both annoying. Also has flame body for zards and torkoals, and has wide guard which nobody expects lol

It also lives a sucker punch and can one shot gambit which is sick lol

Its worked okay but I still struggle against teams that deal heavy special damage

Your team seems to deal with meta better than what am running tbh

😂 😂 😂

Anything speacial you are struggling with?

Actually wait it wasn’t the special attack damage I was struggling with lol it was mostly mons that stop priority like the giraffe and tsarena. But then after they get speed control I struggle with the heavy special attack damage that comes after 😂 like blastoise, zard, and sylveon

I know my teams has the counters, but maybe Im just playing the team bad?

You have armour cannon for tsareena. If you are struggling with giraff, you might think or a taunt pokemon.

Giraff is very bulky and can be setup to actually take a kowtow easily. When I was playing giraff the main issues I faced was finches from rockslide or taunt from non prankster pokemon.

So maybe taunt on wim and I can put encore back on lopunny? My main thing is I like the triple axel coverage on lopunny for dactyle

Taunt on whim does not help you with prio blocking

Oh yea you’re right

Lemme see who on my team can learn taunt lol one sec

Darn no good options for taunt. Who would you suggest running?

I am interested in a scizzor team too but today might be a bit difficult. Let me see if I can think of something tomorrow

Okay sounds good! Thanks for the help

Scizor is played basically the same way Lucario rain is played

Prio is fine but if you are unable to use it just work around it. If you cannot fake out or bullet punch the farig. Doubling into it with your faster Mon hopefully removing colbur berry and the slower one finishing it off has worked fine for me

I tend to use a faster Mon with knock off then kingambit kowtow to remove

The problem I always face with this is that the giraffe usually leads a fake out user like blastoise or lopunny. The only mon I found that kits hard enough to one shot it through max bulk is adamant meowscarada

With knock off

Max bulk is not the problem. Colbur berry is the problem. You need to double up

Tsareena learns knock off.
