}}

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Scyther}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Metal Coat}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Scizor''' using the {{DL|Mega Stone|Scizorite}}.

Mega Scizor's pincers lengthen and develop serrations. The lower half of the claws turns white and gain three pointed spikes on the underside. The barbs on Mega Scizor's claws can stab through concrete, and opponents caught in them are unable to escape.<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Scizor</ref> Its eyespots are now blue with a thin black rim. Though they lack the black rim, its real are blue as well. Additional pieces of black armoring appear on various area of its body: a three-pointed crest on its forehead, striated coverings on its shoulders, and unmarked coverings on its thighs. Mega Scizor's legs are less detailed and resemble large, tapered spikes with white tips.

====Trophy information====

'''PAL:''' ''It may look like this Pokémon has three heads, but that's just what it wants you to think. Look closer and you'll see that two of them are actually claws. Most creatures with face-like markings use them to scare predators to give themselves a chance to run away, but Scizor seems more likely to attack while its foe is stunned!''
