As the two Pokemon stared one another down, it was perhaps a shock that this was one of the very few who didn't seem cowered by Starscream's imposing appearance. Many would cower and most would run in cowardice but this Scyther wasn't going anywhere. It was either brave or INCREDIBLY stupid. Ordered by the one person that Starscream would bother even listen to, the scornful bird of steel zoomed forward, using its long, striding legs to push it forward but then its wings to propel itself into the air. Keeping its gaze on the enemy, the Scyther didn't budge at all but merely assumed a defensive stance as its body bulked up in preparation for the strikes. Building up enough momentum, Starscream neared towards the ground and with a lashing out of his talons attempted to strike at the Scyther. Instead, the mantis met this admirably and deflected the razor sharp blow of fury in a much less dangerous direction.
Muttering, Starscream used his other spare talon for another strike but was countered once more with a deflection. Deciding to land, Starscream used his stuck out wing and smacked down at the Scyther, this time causing it to reel back in pain as it had little chance of deflecting such a heavy blow from above. Noticing its enemy was unbalanced, Starscream clamped his steely jaws shut and went in for a piercing blow. Despite how unsteady it looked, the Scyther used its own wings to lift itself up before planting itself down in the way of rebalancing. Noticing the lunging pierce, the Scyther crossed its butchering arms together into a cross formation and nudged the bottom of Starscream's jaw upwards. With Scyther now in control, it used all of its strength to push the bird's aim upwards as it lunged further still.
In a tight spot, Starscream used his other wing to unleash his final string of the attack. With the Scyther's arms raised up, it meant the steel bird had plenty of room to crush at its thin stomach with indignant fury. Letting out a roar at being punished for its opening, the Scyther hopped backwards with agility. All that was left for its turn was its decision. Would it attack or play it safer? Knowing the Skarmory was of a strong defence, the praying mantis merely leered its eyes threateningly as if to stand up to Starscream's presence. It may not have been strong enough to rend the bird's metallic feathers but it wasn't going to let that unfortunate fact from phasing it completely.
