Mega Scizor leverages its amazing typing, phenomenal defenses, and powerful priority to serve as an effective bulky win-condition with Swords Dance. Knock Off is used to remove crucial items from checks like Slowbro and Zapdos. Alternatively, U-turn can be used to pivot in teammates and generate momentum versus switch-ins like Landorus-T, while Sand Tomb, a more niche option, traps Toxapex, heavily damages Kingambit and Z-Move Gholdengo, and picks up the OHKO on Heatran once boosted. Its natural resists and invested bulk paired with Roost allow it to blanket check various attackers such as Kyurem and Kingambit lacking Swords Dance, and also more comfortably set up against the likes of Gliscor and Tapu Lele. The given EV spread dodges the 2KHO from Mega Lopunny’s Close Combat after Stealth Rock damage and outpaces non-invested Heatran.
More balance-oriented teams appreciate bulky Mega Scizor providing a win-condition paired with strong priority, allowing it to serve as a cleaner and effective revenge killer.
