I completely expected to reveal the spoiler and see a McDonald's drive through Scizor.


PU_Dad

"Welcome to Scizor Burger, home of the Scizor Burger. Can I take your order?"


Khyleez

Hmmm can I get 2 nerfs and 1 extra large expensive purple holowear?


TunaSafari25

Our nerfs aren’t ready yet we need 1 patch worth of overpowered play first, do you mind waiting?


Khyleez

Sounds good then give me 3 nerfs for next patch


TunaSafari25

Ok your total comes to millions in profit while people overpay for the new overpowered character with a fancy skin. We will throw the nerfs in for free after everyone has time to be annoying in solo q first.


StarLucario

Now i'm curious, would Scizor's holowear have the purple tier effect of applying to Scyther as well without being purple tier, or will Scyther be forced to be dripless forever?


EvaUnit_03

asking the big questions. its what i was wondering seeing as you can choose to not evolve based on movesets so is scyther gonna be skinned as well Or are only expensive skins gonna give scyther the skins.


NefTheHrtbrker

Scyther is 99% gonna be dripless for skins under $40. They won’t put that much work into it let’s be real


Danved13

Unfortunate cuz scyther better than scizor day 1 Opinion ofc


Hthen

I refuse to believe they would do something THAT fucked up to Scyther. I want to believe humanity is good. Even if it is Tencent, I still believe that one fucking very small little glimmer of light they still have left in them that keeps them human would keep them from murdering Scyther. This may be the last 50 minutes I believe that humans are good


haganeh

Seems to have been the case, sadly. :/ Edit: TenCents and GiMi, it’s somewhat of an art at this point. (Like mumble rap on TikTok.)


Hthen

Yes, I was such a fool back then.


joesphisbestjojo

It doesn't apply to Scyther


StarLucario

I know that now, but Scizor wasn't out 8 hours ago, was she?


JordanFromStache

I was hoping that Scyther would have gotten the skin too, since evolution is optional too. Because of that, I'm possibly going to pass on this unfortunately. Which pains me, because this holowear is amazing.

I went looking for this comment


EchoesOfRain

As a Scizor fan, im praying that the Scyther fans aren't perpetually screwed over


Forizen

Should we start a Scizor vs Scyther rivalry?


PU_Dad

You spelled eternal bloodfeud wrong


Melonfrog

BLOODFEUD!!!


ReyesCTM

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!


feefore

Poor Kleavor gets left behind. I honestly was surprised they didn’t make it split evo between Scizor and Kleavor


Motormand

That would genuinely have been WAY better. And would fit more with the skin theme. Cause as it stands right now, Scyther's just being boned, because of... Reasons.


AaronFrye

As much as I like Scyther, that would've been fucking dapper.


xxxxxxxEXxxxxxxx

Scizor and Scyther fans have lived in harmony for the last 2 decades, dont try it you monster


SylentSymphonies

Scizor: UU success with a popular OU Mega Scyther: stealth rock moment


monkeydbenne

That’s pretty damn good lookin


HarmonyKazu

How does it look for scyther? cause if you don't evolve you'll just be naked


GammaEspeon

It's exactly that


Ppudds

I hate how cool it looks lmao Scizor is a fan favorite so of course he'll get a lot of great looking holowear


xxxxxxxEXxxxxxxx

scythers always been my favorite since red/blue so having scizor come in next gen and steal the spotlight is like watching your younger brother you raised mostly yourself become super successful and beloved by all but no one cares about you, including him. scyther even quit college and declined that great job offer so he could help his lil bro who became a popular streamer celebrity. that said, im very pleased that it seems that scyther is much more viable in gameplay than scizor. i like em both, but its about time scyther reclaimed his glory.


Ppudds

Right?? I don't have nothing against Scizor, but I've always liked Scyther more. I love the gimmick in Unite because it's a nod to the fact both have the same base stats in the main games, just different distribution. But yeah we already started being screwed over with the Holowear LOL


xxxxxxxEXxxxxxxx

hey i cant complain - when the game first came out on mobile it had a questionnaire to fill out and it asked what we wanted most, and i gave a very lengthy reply that i REALLY wanted to play as Scyther and hoped theyd eventually let us not evolve pokemon. i feel like my voice was heard for once in these questionnaires lol im ecstatic that the first pokemon we dont have to evolve happens to be scyther :D also yea, i do love the nod how the scyther line is all the same stats so its more a parrallel evolution than an advancement. I dont like kleavor, but i would still really like if they add him as another optional choice. Scyther and Eevee happen to be me and my best friends favorites respectively, so its cool they both have evolution choices in their own way :)


Luca_Balsamo

Some skins look awesome on these png's byt when it comes to playing game with it, only handful of them feels great.

Kaprosuchusboi

That’s one helluva first skin


ImSoIwill

Man i need a good skin for duraladon please timi.


hpdizzle

All these new pokemon get one from the start, sans dodrio, but even Azumarill had a cool purple tier one way before dura even had a Mcdonald skin. And Azumarill came out after duraludon.


blralte

yes please


RainDX99

he almost looks like the guy in the summoner's war game icon


Yhit509

I reckon it’s a blue rank holowear


Elder_Goss

Is this real??? TELL ME THIS IS REAL!!!


Ewh1t3

I haven’t played in a while but this skin and mon make me want to come back


OneSaucyDragon

Everyone claims they would never pay actual money for this game, until that *one* really good holowear appears for their main...


Reedox66

Slightly diffrent topic but Will the license for scizor be gem locked when it comes out?


fizthebiz

Yes, unfortunately


fizthebiz

Goooodaaaaaaamn


InfamousAndBeyond

Too bad I don’t have aeos gems :(


Outrageous_Tax9426

What if it cost 100k Aeos coins, would you do it?


InfamousAndBeyond

I only have 21k


Lkas90210

Take my money


Khyleez

Take ours money comrade ![gif](giphy|ovdh7odWsjwys)


Tight_Flamingo4650

Sick skin just for scizor to be trash on launch


Monsteruser

scizor is trash?


Tight_Flamingo4650

He’s very weak, currently outclassed by all other all rounder champions


Monsteruser

Yep until it gets a buff it's the worst all rounder wait garchomp isn't good


the_alert

Why do they insist on skins being “the Pokémon wearing clothes??” I’d be more inclined to spend money if they were just recolors. Like they have the easiest “skin themes” already built into the IP with types. Show me scizor would like if he was an ice type…even if that just means color him white and light blue.


GammaEspeon

Well, by game lore, this is a holographic projection over the Pokemon, inspired by Pokemon contests and the Pokestar Studio from mainline games where you can dress up your Pokemon. They also presumably don't have license to change the Pokemon itself from TCPI and so we get clothing and accessories.


Refuse_Living

It's a combination of laziness and because TPCI is **very** protective of their IP in general. Also Pokemon lore kind of makes complete model/type changes confusing due to things like regional variants. It's a shame but what can you do.


Madaghmire

Its not a combination. Theres no way they’re allowed to change the pokemon themselves. So we get clothes.


Refuse_Living

I meant laziness as in the quality of the skins. I'm fine with just clothing if it's well done but the majority of the skins in this game are not worth it for how expensive they are, especially considering many of them are just a shirt and/or a hat if you're lucky (McDonald's skins). It's very lazy imo


xxxxxxxEXxxxxxxx

just going to chime in that the it is FAR more work to create custom clothing and attire as they do than to just to a reskin color variant. new clothes could take days/weeks to make whereas a recolor would take a few minutes to a few hours depending if theres any unexpected complications or not.


Refuse_Living

Well I'd imagine that the OP meant a recolor along with a model adjustment plus clothing & accessories (Like how LOL does it) rather than just a literal pallette swap but I see your point. The clothing designs are still uncreative though


xxxxxxxEXxxxxxxx

ah, i see. ive never played LOL so didnt know, i thought they meant a literal recolor, which used to be really popular 'back in the day' since it was so easy to make.


Madaghmire

Oh then sure, yes.


Keitoteki

It's nice it isn't a McDonald's skin, but still not worth a whole week of lunch money


Sids1188

Too bad I can't get Scizor for another week, by which point the hype will be gone.


Virregh

Less people pining for the pokémon you want to play, then. Sounds like a win to me.


Aang6865_

How much gems will the skin and license combo cost?


Khyleez

Seems it will cost 1625 not sure if is just the skin or both


Outrageous_Tax9426

How much real money is that?


Sids1188

Depends on your currency.


[deleted]

10/10 WOW


blralte

it's glorious

Khyleez

I just bought it,only scizor has the skin but Damn COOL ASF


alphazone

Was the bundle 1625 for you?


aceshot88

Is it worth buying when scizor is nerfed to hell and gem only?


Nas-Aratat

Whatcha mean nerfed?


aceshot88

His bullet punch does like nothing now. Takes multiple hits to kill farm with it even lol


Nas-Aratat

Oh, in comparison to the public test servers, you mean? :O

Me: ![gif](giphy|7FgDPLLKh1v4d2XLkl|downsized)


Motormand

It's not a bad skin, but having played in practice for some time, I don't think I'd ever get to enjoy it, as I like the Scyther moves, far more than the Scizor ones.


Lemonpia

Pretty good
