About Scyther
Scyther is a Bug / Flying-type Pokémon, the Mantis Pokémon (No. 123), introduced in Generation I and native to the Kanto region.
The large, wickedly sharp scythes on its forearms are truly fearsome weapons. Prey's attempts to flee are unfailingly thwarted by this Pokémon's nimble motions.
