That GOSSAN Scizor is actually really nice! The green is striking on the otherwise metallic appearing card!

Lucario/Riolu and Scizor/Scyther already got shiny cards in the other shiny sets, would be nice to get some other Pokémon that haven’t gotten shinies

They really gonna make me decide between this one and the illustration rare for my Zoroark Box deck.

You sound like a bot haha

Speaking as I was so bad that Scizor was the only shiny I caught in scarlet and violet, I love this card.

I thought the set was called Paldea Fates?

I thought the set was called Paldea Fates?

Pretty sure that's just an educated guess based on past special sets and a leaked card's set symbol rather than anything definitive.

To me, there is no doubt there, though. The illustration rare is just plain gorgeous

Not in this set unfortunately. The Japanese Scizor is 129 and Varoom is 130, so no room for Scizor ex, since it would've been after regular Scizor

What a shame, maybe there will be a set called “Special Scizor Set”

I am really questing their method for choosing Shinys for this set lollll

I'd be keen to see Shinies of the new Xatu, Gardevoir ex, Chien-Pao ex, ANY competitive staples as opposed to random Pokemon that already got Shinies

I would definitely buy gardevoir ex shiny, if that isn’t in this set I’m going to be very angry.

that's fair, but this scizor card is one of the best single-prize attackers in the format right now, so it'll be cool seeing this shiny variant pop up in competitive decks like gholdengo ex

Oh what perfect timing, I was just about to bid on a shiny scyther gx for the pokedex folder, saved my bacon there!
