Scizor Raid Guide

Sprite of Scizor from Pokémon GO Scizor

Scizor is a Bug/Steel type 3-tier Raid boss. You should bring strong Fire types to make quick work of this challenging battle, as Scizor is double-weak to Fire-type damage, and it’s also its only weakness.

You can capture Scizor in the following CP ranges:

  • 1636 CP – 1714 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
  • 2046 CP – 2143 CP at Level 25 with Rainy or Snow weather boost

This Raid Boss shouldn’t prove to be too much of a challenge with the right Pokémon. We suggest a minimum group size of 1 – 3 Trainers to defeat Scizor in a 3-tier Raid.

It can be shiny!
