Scizor · Neo Discovery, what to know.
About the Scizor card
Numbered 29 of 75 in Neo Discovery, released in June 2001, Scizor is a Rare, a Stage 1 Metal-type carrying 80 HP.
It evolves from Scyther, so Scizor is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Printed on the card, the Scizor Pokédex entry reads: "It swings its eye patterned pincers up to scare its foes. This makes it look like it has three heads."
About Scizor in the Pokémon world
The Steel evolution of Scyther when traded with Metal Coat. Neo Discovery holo Scizor has steady collector demand. Modern reprints have continued the interest.
What is Scizor worth?
Scizor is a non-holo Rare. In Neo Discovery, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Scizor trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Neo Discovery produced 1st Edition, Unlimited prints. For Scizor, the print variant can change the price several times over, so identify it before you buy.
Grading and condition
On Scizor, look at the corners and the framed border first. Non-holo Rares took more handling than the chase holos, so a sharp, centered copy of Scizor in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.
If you are collecting Scizor
For Scizor, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Non-holo Rares from this era are cheap enough that a PSA 10 submission on a clean Scizor can make sense.
