*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Scyther @Choice Band/Choice Scarf
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly/Adamant Nature
Ability: Technician
-Aerial Ace
-Night Slash
-X-Scissor/U-Turn
-Brick Break

Standard Choice sweeper set. The EV spread is just a general one. Scyther does not need so much speed when it has a Choice Scarf, so feel free to shift some Speeds EVs into HP or Defense.

Scyther @Salac Berry
EVs: 42 HP / 252 Atk / 216 Spd
Adamant Nature
-Endure/Substitute
-Swords Dance
-Reversal
-Night Slash/Aerial Ace/X-Scissor

Reversal set number 1 is the standard method for setting up a Reversal.

Scyther @Focus Sash
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Hasty Nature
-Counter
-Reversal
-Aerial Ace
-X-Scissor/Swords Dance

Reversal set number 2, which relies on surviving a big physical hit and striking back with Counter, then pummeling other opponents with Reversal.

Scyther @Leftovers
EVs: 252 HP / 6 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
Ability: Technician
-Swords Dance
-Agility/Substitute
-Baton Pass
-Aerial Ace

Scyther can Baton Pass as well with Attack boosts, Speed boots, and Subs.

Scizor @Leftovers
EVs: 252 HP / 110 Def / 148 Spd
Impish Nature
-Agility
-Swords Dance
-X-Scissor
-Baton Pass

Scizor has better defenses than its unevolved form so it can stand to stat boost some more unless you're facing a Fire type.

Scizor @Liechi Berry
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature
Ability: Swarm
-Agility
-Endure
-Reversal
-Night Slash/X-Scissor

Unlike Scyther, Scizor isn't fast enough to pull off a Reversal with it's slow speed, so it will have to use Agility and a Liechi Berry instead.

Scizor @Choice Band/Choice Scarf
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def
Adamant Nature
Ability: Technician
-X-Scissor
-Iron Head
-Pursuit
-Aerial Ace

Scizor's massive attack and improved physical movepool comes in handy with the Choice sweeper set. The last two moves take advantage of Scizor's Technician ability.

Thank you very much. I've been pondering a Scizor moveset for quite some time.
