How Do You Evolve Scyther in Pokemon GO?

Last updated
Ever wondered how to turn your Scyther into a menacing Scizor in Pokemon GO? If so, you’re in the right place. Let’s dive into the exciting world of evolving Pokemon, specifically focusing on Scyther, and uncover the steps to evolve it.
Turning your Scyther into a Scizor involves a special item and some in-game currency. Read on to find out exactly how to make this evolution happen!
The Short Answer to Evolving Scyther
To evolve Scyther into Scizor in Pokemon GO, you need a special item called a Metal Coat. Along with this, you will need 50 Scyther Candy. Once you have these two things, you can evolve your Scyther directly from your Pokemon inventory.
Why a Metal Coat, you might ask? Well, in the Pokemon universe, certain evolutions require specific items to mimic the conditions or methods needed for a Pokemon to evolve. The Metal Coat represents the hard, metallic body Scizor has, differentiating it from Scyther’s exoskeleton.
How to Get Scyther Candy and the Metal Coat
To collect Scyther Candy, catch more Scythers, transfer them to Professor Willow, or walk with a Scyther as your buddy to earn candy as you walk. For the Metal Coat, you’ll have to spin Photo Discs at PokeStops and Gyms, as they drop randomly from these locations. So, a bit of luck and persistence are required!
Once you’ve gathered 50 Scyther Candy and obtained a Metal Coat, simply tap on your Scyther in the Pokemon menu, hit the ‘Evolve’ button, and watch the magic happen. Your Scyther will transform into the powerful Scizor, ready to take on battles with its enhanced strength and new metal body.
