Shiny Scyther

#123

Scyther is a Bug/Flying type Pokémon introduced in Generation 1. Scyther is a green, insectoid Pokémon. It has large, blade-like forearms, a pair of wings on its back, and it stands on two clawed feet. Its head is topped with a pointed crest. Scyther's design is primarily inspired by a praying mantis. Scyther is unusual in that it has two evolutions spread across different generations. From Gold/Silver onward it can evolve into Scizor, and in Legends: Arceus a new evolution Kleavor was introduced. Each evolution changes its type, replacing Flying with Steel and Rock respectively. All three Pokémon also have the same base stat total of 500, however the distribution between the individual stats (Attack, Defense and so on) changes around.
