Ok everybody let's get one thing straight,  Scyther is THE BEST Pokemon in 
the jungle expansion.

     First off,  he is basic,  so you plop him down as your starting pokemon. 
(If you happen to go first this works out great).  Next you but a green 
energy on him and say your doing swords dance.  Your first turn is over and 
you didn't deal any damage????  Oh well,  what did your opponent put out, a 
Hitmonchan, big deal,  Scyther won't be hurt by him.  Did he put out a 
FarFetch'd,  oh no,  you MIGHT get hit for 30,  whoopee,  doesn't matter 
cause he has 50 power.  You draw that Double colerless you need on your 
second turn,  he's dead,  and you get your first prize on the second turn!!!!!
     That is big though,  you need 4 double colerless in your deck so drawing 
ONE on your opening draw won't be a problem.  All this equals is your 
opponents opening pokemon is a dead pokemon.
     Oh yeah,  and it cost nothing to retreat him!!!!!

Haymaker decks beware,  you run into Scyther YOUR DEAD.
