Scyther evolves into Scizor. Scizor is a Bug/Steel-type Pokémon. In games where the familiar trade method applies, Scyther evolves when it is holding a Metal Coat as it is traded; the exact method can vary by game.
Which Pokémon evolves into Scizor?
Scyther (#0123) evolves into Scizor (#0212), as shown on the official Pokémon Pokédex. Scizor’s listed types are Bug and Steel.
How does Scyther evolve?
A Pokémon Forums community post describes the familiar method as trading Scyther while it holds a Metal Coat. That is community guidance, not a rule verified here for every Pokémon game. Check the instructions for the specific title you are playing if you need exact steps.
Can Scyther evolve into anything else?
Yes. Scyther also has an alternate evolution, Kleavor, in the Hisui setting. The official Pokémon Legends: Arceus Kleavor page says special minerals found in Hisui cause Scyther to evolve into Kleavor. Kleavor is an alternate branch; Scizor remains the answer when asking what evolves into Scizor.
