Tracey's Scyther (Japanese: ケンジのストライク Kenji's Strike) was the only Pokémon caught by Tracey Sketchit while traveling with Ash and Misty in the Orange Islands.
History
Scyther made its debut in Tracey Gets Bugged where the Pokémon watcher discovered it lying in a field on Murcott Island injured. Tracey attempted to help it by feeding it medicine but it only growled at him and then backed away; feeling threatened. Tracey then asked his Venonat to use Sleep Powder on the Mantis Pokémon. Scyther quickly went to sleep and Tracey captured it without struggle then headed off to the nearest Pokémon Center.
While Nurse Joy was bandaging its wounds, it leered at Tracey through the window as if it was angry with him for helping. Nurse Joy goes on to explain that because of the wounds it sustained, it must have been the leader of a Scyther swarm who lost its battle for leadership. Because it appeared elderly, she assumed that it lost to a younger, faster Scyther. Since it lost its leadership, it had to leave the swarm and live by itself. Tracey is pained that he could nothing to help Scyther feel better but Ash suggested that he help train Scyther to re-challenge the new leader when it gets better. Without warning, it starts to fly and bursts through the glass window but crashes to the ground. This does not deter it and it flies off leaving the others behind. It was assumed that Scyther wished to challenge the new leader immediately.
It's soon discovered that Scyther heard the cries of its former swarm members who had been captured by Team Rocket and it left the Pokémon Center in order to save them. While listening to Tracey's commands, Scyther is able to defeat every one of Team Rocket's Pokémon single handily and sent the trio running for their lives. Aftewards, Scyther makes ammends with its replacement and happily goes with Tracey.
In A Way Off Day Off, Tracey decideds to introduce all the Pokémon to Scyther to which all of them were afraid of. But they quickly warmed up to it seeing that Togepi was not scared of it. But Charizard had no interest and nearly hit Scyther with Flamethrower. This caused the two Pokémon to have a small rivalry between one another. But they were able to set aside their differences to alert their Trainers that Team Rocket was trying to steal their Pokémon. Scyther was also able to send Team Rocket blasting off with Skull Bash.
Tracey loaned Scyther and Marill to Misty in order to help fight a fire on Ascorbia Island while he went to find Captain Aidan's Wartortle in The Pokémon Water War. It assised by slashing away rubble that fell from the burning building long enough for Team Wartortle to come and finish the job.
On the day Tracey decided to leave the group and become Professor Oak's assistant, he used Scyther to help save Pikachu who was taken by Team Rocket by slashing open the case that he ha been trapped in. Once saved, Pikachu happily hopped up on Scyther's shoulder as a show of thanks.
Scyther has rarely appeared since Tracey arrived in Pallet Town. However, it was the Pokémon that Tracey used in the battle against Butch and Cassidy when they stole all of the Poké Balls in the lab in Showdown at the Oak Corral. It also appeared in Oak-napped! where Tracey used it to battle Butch's Mightyena. However, its age got the better of it and it was unable to complete the battle. Tracey recalled it back to its Poké Ball before it could get hurt.
Personality and characteristics
Scyther has the attitude of a warrior and pride means everything to it. It will not back down from a battle even when the odds are stacked against it. It is also extremely loyal to members of its swarm as it came to protect them even though it had been exiled from the swarm. It has also been seen to have a gentle side as seen in A Way Off Day Off when Misty's Togepi came to great it.
Undoubtedly, Scyther is the powerhouse of Tracey's team that is used solely for battling rather than Pokémon watching. Though because it is elderly, it gets tired easily. Its age is also evident in the way it looks as it appears scruffier than younger Scyther. It would often use Swords Dance to blow away a Smog attack caused by James's Weezing.
