I know, and the ONLY reason why I'm even considering it is Speed Boost. Last I remember, Yanmega can'y BP.

Scizor can BP speed fine...I mean, ninjask is just so easy to counter...though maybe TAUNT could remedy thy situation.

Set is fine, but run:

Adamant / Impish, 252 HP / 128 Atk / 128 Def

Scizor is too slow to make use of speed.

Okay. Thanks ^^;

I'll try to get a Scizor of that description, and see how it works.

It'll be useless if it was your only Water Pokemon that doesn't know any water moves.

Scizor would do fantastic to pass Attack and/or Speed to Empoleon, unless Empo is running SD on its own. Scizor would most likely draw a fire attacking Pokemon out of the enemy's team, and after BP-ing, Empoleon could just take the hit.

Who would make an Empoleon (or any Water-type Pokemon for that matter) without a Water-type attack? That would be pure n00bness.

Ummm... Did you even look at my set?
Waterfall/Aqua Jet is in the set :/

They're Water Moves. And physical ones at that, so they get boosted by Swords Dance.

EXCEPT for Gyarados. His movepool is so great, he can function without Waterfall.
