Using it in a run

Scyther spreads 500 base stat points. Its strongest stat is Attack (110) and its weakest is Special Attack (55), so the role that fits depends on how the rest of the run covers that gap.

Under the game's real multipliers it takes increased damage from Rock, Electric and Fire. It resists Bug, Fighting and Grass in return. Use that to decide when to circle and when to leave, not to pick a favourite.

Its level-up learnset lists 13 moves; the hardest-hitting is X-Scissor at 80 power, available at level 40. That is the point where its damage actually changes.
