It raises its pincers with eyelike markings for intimidation. It also swings them down dangerously.

Generation 6
X

This Pokémon’s pincers, which contain steel, can crush any hard object it gets ahold of into bits.

Y

It has a steel-hard body. It intimidates foes by upraising its eye-patterned pincers.

Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire

Scizor has a body with the hardness of steel. It is not easily fazed by ordinary sorts of attacks. This Pokémon flaps its wings to regulate its body temperature.

Generation 7
Sun

It uses its wings to adjust its body temperature. Otherwise, its metal body would become too hot and melt in the heat of battle.

Moon

Once it has identified an enemy, this Pokémon smashes it mercilessly with pincers hard as steel.

Ultra Sun

Its body is like steel. Its tough, heavy pincers are more suited to smashing enemies than grabbing them.

Ultra Moon

Once it has identified something as an enemy, it will continue beating them with its steel-hard pincers until there’s nothing left but scraps.
