Done [Monotype] Shadow of Death (Swords Dance Scizor / Steel) [QC 1/1] [GP 1/1]

[Murphy Lawden]

(Steel)
Scizor @ Metal Coat / Leftovers
Ability: Technician
EVs: 40 HP / 252 Atk / 216 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Bullet Punch
- Close Combat
- Trailblaze / Knock Off

A samurai clad in steel armor, Scizor strikes down its enemies with one wicked punch. Bullet Punch nails Fairy- and Ice-types like Iron Valiant, Flutter Mane, and Kyurem and lets Scizor pick off setup sweepers like Unburden Sneasler. At +2, Close Combat crushes Steel- and Dark-types like Archaludon, Corviknight, and Ting-Lu after minimal chip damage. Trailblaze threatens Water-types like Primarina and Swampert and lets Scizor outspeed threats like non-Choice Scarf Urshifu-R after one use. Knock Off targets Gholdengo and Pecharunt and punishes defensive switch-ins like Toxapex by removing their Heavy-Duty Boots. 216 Speed EVs allow Scizor to outspeed physically defensive Archaludon. Teammates like Skarmory, Heatran, and Archaludon provide entry hazard support, making it easier for Scizor to clean up. Heatran also boasts a Fire immunity that lets it take on threats like Volcarona and Ninetales. Hisuian Goodra and Archaludon capitalize on their excellent bulk and typing; Hisuian Goodra walls Choice Specs Greninja and Dragapult, while Archaludon handles Ceruledge. Gholdengo removes Toxapex and Skarmory while appreciating Scizor removing Ting-Lu.

Good stuff Murphy.
Only really move Pecha from item removal to something we check using Knock Off (At +2 we handle the runt easily)

On a valuable sidenote: T-rex did not evolve into the Chicken. They are distant cousins. In fact, things you will call "birds" evolved during the late Jurassic almost 80 million years before most Dinosaurs you will know like T-rex evolved during the late Cretaceous.
