Scizor’s favorite foods are Springy Mushrooms, Dazzling Honey, Hearty Grains, and Plump Beans. These foods and berries can be used as food for Scizor and a distraction before catching or battling it unawares.

Whenever a wild Scizor is defeated or captured, the player will receive a Seed of Mastery and an Exp. Candy L.

The player can only find a Scizor inside Space-Time Distortions in the Alabaster Icelands.

Research Tasks

Every time one of a Research Task’s objectives is accomplished, a Pokedex entry’s Research Level increases by one level. After completing a Research Task objective with a multiplier of x2, the Pokedex entry gains two Research Levels. 

Once a Pokemon’s Pokedex entry reaches Research Level 10, it is complete. In addition, the player receives Research Points for finishing Pokedex entries and Research Task objectives. The player’s Star Rank in the Galaxy Team will be increased if they accumulate enough Research Points.
