Catching a Scizor in Pokemon Violet is a bit of a unique challenge since Scizor itself doesn't appear wildly in the Paldea region. Instead, you need to catch a Scyther and then trade it while it's holding a Metal Coat. This evolves Scyther into Scizor. You can find Scyther roaming around the grassy areas of Paldea. As for the Metal Coat, you can snag one from the Delibird Presents shops in the game or from certain wild Pokémon like Magnemite. Remember, trading requires a friend or a second Switch!

Honestly, Scizor ain't even that hard to get. I just caught a Scyther, slapped a Metal Coat on it, and traded with my buddy. Worked like a charm, now I've got this awesome Scizor on my team. Also, if you're into Pokémon battles, Scizor's Bug/Steel combo can really give you an edge.

Just trade a Scyther holding a Metal Coat. Bam, you got Scizor. No need to complicate things.
