Strategy & play

How Scizor ex plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Its main attack (Cross Breaker) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
  • Hits for 120 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
  • Needs Metal Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Metal type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥135 effectively one-shots it.
  • A two-prize Pokémon — each KO gives the opponent 2 Prizes, so a single bad trade can lose the race. Back it with single-prize attackers.
  • A Stage 1 — one step up from Scyther; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.

How to beat Scizor ex

  • Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥135 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Scizor ex is real?

Scizor ex is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
