Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

Gold	It swings its eye- patterned pincers up to scare its foes. This makes it look like it has three heads.
Silver / FireRed / SoulSilver	Its wings are not used for flying. They are flapped at high speed to adjust its body temperature.
Crystal	This POKéMON's pincers, which contain steel, can crush any hard object it gets a hold of into bits.
Ruby / Sapphire	SCIZOR has a body with the hardness of steel. It is not easily fazed by ordinary sorts of attacks. This POKéMON flaps its wings to regulate its body temperature.
Emerald	A SCIZOR has a body with the hardness of steel. It is not easily fazed by ordinary sorts of attacks. It flaps its wings to regulate its body temperature.
LeafGreen / HeartGold	It swings its eye-patterned pincers up to scare its foes. This makes it look like it has three heads.
Diamond / Pearl / Y	It has a steel-hard body. It intimidates foes by upraising its eye-patterned pincers.
Platinum / Black / White / Black 2 / White 2	It raises its pincers with eyelike markings for intimidation. It also swings them down dangerously.
X	This Pokémon’s pincers, which contain steel, can crush any hard object it gets ahold of into bits.
Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire	Scizor has a body with the hardness of steel. It is not easily fazed by ordinary sorts of attacks. This Pokémon flaps its wings to regulate its body temperature.
Sun	It uses its wings to adjust its body temperature. Otherwise, its metal body would become too hot and melt in the heat of battle.
Moon	Once it has identified an enemy, this Pokémon smashes it mercilessly with pincers hard as steel.
Ultra Sun	Its body is like steel. Its tough, heavy pincers are more suited to smashing enemies than grabbing them.
Ultra Moon	Once it has identified something as an enemy, it will continue beating them with its steel-hard pincers until there’s nothing left but scraps.

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
