On Murcott Island, our heroes encounter a solitary, injured Scyther, and they take it to the Pokémon Center. Nurse Joy tells the gang that this Scyther used to lead a swarm, but a younger Scyther took over. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is busy capturing the Scyther swarm after they cut off Jessie’s hair! Sensing danger, the wounded Scyther bursts from the Center and rushes to help. After the battle, the old Scyther agrees to go with Tracey.
