PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Bug Attacker:Fury Cutter X-Scissor
Steel Attacker:Bullet Punch Iron Head

⚔️ Raids

Shadow Scizor is a bug and steel-type Pokémon, and the evolution of Scyther. It is one of the best bug-type raid attackers, outperforming its pre-evolution Shadow Scyther, with the same moveset of Fury Cutter and X-Scissor. As a steel-type raid attacker, Shadow Scizor is much less impressive, but it’s still decent if you lack better alternatives. The moveset of choice this time would be Bullet Punch and Iron Head. As a bug-type raid attacker, Shadow Scizor is strong against grass, psychic, and dark-type Pokémon. Whereas, as a steel-type raid attacker, it's strong against rock, ice, and fairy types.

PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Great League:Bullet Punch Night Slash Trailblaze
Ultra League:Bullet Punch Night Slash Trailblaze
Master League:Bullet Punch Night Slash Trailblaze

🔵 Great League

Shadow Scizor is a fantastic Pokémon for the Great League. Its steel typing helps it avoid the typical rock-type weakness that bug types suffer. It has two solid fast attacks to choose between in Fury Cutter and Bullet Punch. It even has a spammy charged attack in Night Slash and Trailblaze for some much-needed coverage. All of this allows Shadow Scizor to play as a very effective glass cannon damage dealer.

🟡 Ultra League

Shadow Scizor is solid in the Ultra League as well. Not as dominating as in the Great League, but still strong against meta favorites such as Lapras and Clefable. And as an added benefit, Shadow Scizor plays the same in the Ultra League with the same moveset.

🟣 Master League

Shadow Scizor is not strong enough for the legendary-dominated Master League.

Catch probability with multiple throws

In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Shadow Scizor, we enable the functionality to showing the total chance to catch it depending on the number of available throws. We calculate this chance as if you repeated the same throw N-number of times.

To activate this functionality, change the number of Number of throws to a value greater than 1. The Number of throws option is available in the configuration options above the chart

Catch rate formula

Pokémon GO catch rate formula can be expressed as follows:

CATCH_MULTIPLIERS = ball * curve * berry * throwType * (type1Medal + type2Medal / 2)
CATCH_RATE = 1 - Math.pow(1 - baseCatchRate / (2 * cpm), CATCH_MULTIPLIERS)

There are different multipliers that come into play when calculating catch rate.

Curved throws are more effective than regular throws, stronger types of Poké Ball have a higher catch rate, and using a Razz Berry or a Golden Razz Berry also improves your chances.
