Scizor is listed as a Bug/Steel type in the current Pokémon Champions format, with usage data pulled from competitive teams, tournament results and Showdown-ready pastes tracked by MetaVGC. This page brings together its most common moveset, nature, ability, item, teammates and type weaknesses so you can judge where Scizor fits in a VGC team.
The most common build highlights Technician, Scizorite and Adamant 32/32/0/0/2/0. Its frequent moves include Bullet Punch, Protect, Swords Dance, Bug Bite, Close Combat, and Dual Wingbeat. Treat those choices as a data-backed starting point: they show what players are bringing, while EV spreads, Tera Type and the final move slot should still respond to your expected matchups.
Defensively, Scizor has important weaknesses to fire 4x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as incineroar, sneasler, sinistcha, pelipper, and archaludon appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
