Scyther is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP. It features a unique ability called Swords Dance, which costs one Grass energy and alters its next Slash attack to deal 60 damage instead of 30. The card’s primary attack, Slash, requires three Colorless energy to deal 30 damage. Scyther resists Fighting-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fire-type attacks, which deal double damage.

Artist Ken Sugimori designed the card, and it belongs to the Base series released in 1999 as part of the Jungle set. Scyther has no retreat cost and is classified as a Rare card. Its thematic color scheme reflects a natural, earthy tone.

With ninja-like agility and speed, it can create the illusion that there is more than one of it.
