As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Scizor, when summoned by a thrown Poké Ball, uses Metal Claw as its attack. Scizor runs forward for a short moment, then jumps straight up and falls down, eventually off the bottom of the screen. His role is similar to Hitmonlee's in Super Smash Bros; Any character that makes contact with Scizor will take heavy damage. Scizor also forces characters to the top of the screen if he/she makes contact with it. Scizor's attack does not harm the summoner.

As a trophy

Scizor features as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the 100+ trophies that can be collected randomly during normal play, such as in the Trophy Lottery and throughout the various Single-player Regular Matches. It reads as follows:

Scizor:

This Scissors Pokemon, the evolved form of Scyther, has arms ending in large, strong pincers with distinctive eye-spot markings. It's unable to fly very far with its undersized wings, but it can affect its body temperature by flapping them at high speeds. Its sleek look has made Scizor quite the popular catch among collectors.
