UU Scizor [1/1]

Scizor @ Leftovers
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- U-turn
- Bullet Punch
- Knock Off
- Roost

Specially defensive Scizor sets itself apart from its other Steel-type competition as one of the best defensive pivots into threats such as Alakazam and Kyurem thanks to its reliable recovery and fantastic typing that boasts many resistances, an immunity, and a sole weakness to Fire-type attacks. A strong STAB priority move in Bullet Punch allows Scizor to revenge kill many problematic foes like Lycanroc-D, Terrakion, and Meteor Beam Nihilego. Knock Off is imperative to allow Scizor to cripple Pokemon like Volcanion and Celesteela that commonly switch into it. Scizor is easily forced out by Fire-types such as Victini and Incineroar, so partners like Primarina and Rhyperior can help pressure them. Latias and Nidoqueen are foes that Scizor struggles to reliably check, as they commonly carry Fire-type coverage, making Incineroar and Slowking great partners. Mamoswine and Kyurem are able to offensively pressure a vast majority of Scizor's checks such as Volcanion and appreciate Scizor being able to bring them in safely with U-turn and cripple their checks such as Rotom-H and Celesteela with Knock Off.

Specially defensive Scizor sets itself apart from its other Steel-type competition as one of the best defensive pivots into threats such as Alakazam and Kyurem thanks to it having reliable recovery and a fantastic typing boasting many resistances, an immunity, and leaving it only vulnerable a sole weakness (attempt at saving space to fit some other stuff i want you to add) to Fire-type attacks. Access to a strong STAB priority in Bullet Punch allows Scizor to revenge kill many problematic foes like Lycanroc-D and Meteor Beam Nihilego and Terrakion!!!!. Knock Off is imperative to allow Scizor to cripple Pokemon like Volcanion and Celesteela that commonly switch into it, as well as allow it to beat Aegislash one on one. Scizor is easily forced out by Fire-types such as Victini and Incineroar so partners like Primarina and Rhyperior can help pressure them. Common special attackers like Latias and Nidoqueen are foes that Scizor struggles to reliably check, as they commonly carry Fire-type coverage, so Diancie/Incineroar/just something that beats Latias more reliably bc king doesn't really do it and Slowking makes a great partner for this reason. Mamoswine and Kyurem are able to offensively pressure a vast majority of Scizor's checks such as Volcanion (or something, just want an example here) and appreciate Scizor being able to bring them in safely with U-turn and cripple their checks such as Rotom-H and Celesteela with Knock Off.
mostly nitpicks, great job on this. qc 1/1
