Blue's Scizor (Japanese: グリーンのハッサム Green's Hassam) is the first Pokémon that Blue had since childhood in the Pokémon Adventures manga.

History

Red, Green & Blue arc

As a Scyther

Prior to the start of the series, Blue gave his Scizor, as a Scyther, to Chuck for intensive training. One of the skills it learned was reading its opponent's moves.

Scizor first appeared as a Scyther in A Tale of Ninetales, when Scyther is accidentally traded to Red alongside his other Pokémon. During the three days that Red has them he attempts to get them to relax and open up to him, with little success. They later traded back, while keeping the caring attitude that Red installed in them.

In Go for the Golbat, Scyther was used in Blue's battle against Koga. Scyther attempted to strike Koga with Slash, but Koga's ninja armor, revealed to be a Grimer, quickly envelops the both of them, preventing any further action from Scyther. Blue attempted to use him again as a last ditch effort to defeat Koga but he was quickly countered by his Ekans and defeated.

Yellow arc

In a flashback shown in Growing Out of Gengar, Blue used Scyther as his last attempt to defeat Agatha. Even though Agatha says that Blue's Scyther's physical attack will be no use against formless Pokémon, Blue is reminded of what his master once told him, that even though there's no form, you can still slice through an enemy without form so long as you grasp the essence of the foe. Blue then calls for a Slash from Scyther, slicing Gengar and Gastly to pieces.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

In Forretress of Solitude, it was revealed that Scyther had evolved into a Scizor. In the next chapter, Scizor is used to fight against a group of wild Pokémon that started rampaging due to the Pokémon March playing on a nearby radio. Scizor starts by attacking with Metal Claw and follows up by scaring the Pokémon with his two claws, which resemble heads. Scizor finishes the battle with False Swipe, allowing Blue to capture them all.

FireRed & LeafGreen arc

Blue and Scyther

Scizor appeared in Double Dealing with Deoxys, being used in a double battle against Red. Scizor, with Machamp in his pincers, flies above Snor. Scizor then drops Machamp, who proceeds to grab Snor's body. Machamp proceeds to use Seismic Toss and tosses Snor onto the ground, and swiftly defeats him. Blue follows this up by having Scizor attack Gyara with Steel Wing, knocking him out too. Red sends out Pika and Aero as his last two Pokémon and has Aero use Take Down on Scizor, which doesn't do recoil damage due to his Rock Head Ability. Aero follows up by using Dragon Claw on Scizor, forcing Blue to switch him out.

In Don't Doubt Deoxys, Blue sends out Scizor and Machamp to attack Orm's horde of Shuckle, which has bound itself to Blue. Machamp blasts that Shuckle with Hyper Beam, while Scizor attacks with Metal Claw. Rhydon then shows up from underground and defeats the head Shuckle, scattering the rest. Blue reveals that Scizor and Machamp were simply a diversion for Rhydon to attack.

X & Y arc

In PAXY28, Blue used Scizor to battle against X and a wild Pinsir. Although X managed to get Pinsir to clamp Scizor with its horns, Scizor was too strong for the attack to do any damage.

Personality and characteristics

Being with Blue the longest, Scizor has a personality very similar to him. He is serious, calm, and focused in everything he does and does not take well to Trainers who do not show the same level of commitment. Due to his training with Chuck he is able to read his opponent's moves. As a Scyther, he was used mainly for his agility and fast attacks.
