Scizor is an All-Rounder with high speed and durability. However, unlike other Pokémon, it does not have to evolve from Scyther to Scizor during a Unite Battle. If it learns Bullet Punch, it will evolve, but if it learns Dual Wingbeat, it will not evolve and stay as Scyther for the remainder of the battle. Using Scyther trades that durability for power and additional speed.[1]

After the user hits opposing Pokémon with this move, it jumps again in the designated direction.

Unite Move
The Unite Move the Pokémon learns depends on if it evolved or not. Scyther learns Green Illusion Dive, and Scizor learns Red Illusion Dive.
| Red Illusion Dive レッドスターダイブ Red Star Dive |
Learned at Lv. 9 | |
| Description | ||
| Has the user dash before throwing consecutive punches at a designated Pokémon on the opposing team, decreasing that Pokémon's movement speed. As the last punch is thrown, five illusory copies of the user are created that each dash a set distance from the user. If a copy hits an opposing Pokémon while dashing, it deals damage, decreases that Pokémon's movement speed, then disappears. For a short time, this move can be used again. If this move is used again, the user dashes in the designated direction and deals damage to opposing Pokémon it hits before punching the ground, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon in the area of effect. If the user hits a Pokémon on the opposing team while dashing, the user grabs that Pokémon and continues dashing. If the grabbed Pokémon hits an illusory copy, it will be left incapacitated. | ||

Trivia
- Unlike other Pokémon that evolve, Scyther does not have to score at a goal zone, knock out a Pokémon, or make an assist, to reach a level it evolves at. Instead, Scyther evolves once, and only if, it learns Bullet Punch specifically (which is available upon reaching level 5).
- When Pokémon UNITE lists Pokémon in National Pokédex order, Scizor used to be listed where Scyther would be. This was also the case with other cross-generational Evolutions such as Blissey and Mamoswine. This has been fixed on September 4, 2025 where they are now listed based on the National Pokédex order.
