    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.
