How to Evolve Scyther into Scizor in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Differently from Pokémon like Glimmet, which can evolve after reaching a said level, or Kirlia, which can evolve into Gallade after being given a certain item, you can evolve your Scyther into a Scizor in both Pokemon Scarlet and Violet by first of all finding and giving a Metal Coat to them. Once you do that. you just need to trade Scyther (while equipping the item) with a friend, as once your friend receives the Pokémon it will evolve. Now, all you need to do is trade again, now for the Scizor, in order to add them to your roster.

To recap, here’s how to evolve your Scyther into a Scizor:

• Get a Metal Coat.
• Equip Your Scyther with the Metal Coat.
• Trade Scypher with someone trustworthy.
• Trade with the same person, now for the newly evolved Scizor.
