How to Unlock Scyther in Pokémon Pokopia

As players continue to rehabilitate a ruined island, they will come across a habitat of Tall Grass. Look around the area for an apple tree with a few blocks of tall grass. Go near it and inspect it to get a trace of a new Pokémon. Finding this particular Pokémon requires you to fulfill a “Tree-shaded tall grass” requirement.

How to Complete the Tree-Shaded Tall Grass Requirement

To complete the Tree-shaded tall grass requirement, you have to place grass around the tree, covering at least 2×2 blocks. After that, water the grass to hydrate it. For planting the grass, switch to the Leafage move and press the ZR button to place the grass. Once done, switch to the Water Gun move and press the ZR button to water the grass.

Meet Scyther at the Tree-Shaded Tall Grass

After fulfilling the Tree-shaded tall grass requirement, you will have to wait a bit for a Pokémon to stop by. Now, wait until you get the “inspect” option at the grass. Inspect the grass, and Scyther will jump out of the grass. Speak with Scyther and go through the dialogues to unlock Scyther.

Similar to other Pokémon, you can fulfill Scyther’s initial request to learn a new move. The initial request will require you to get 2x wood. Upon giving wood to Scyther, your character will learn the “Cut” move. You can use the Cut move on the tree logs to collect logs.
