Which of Scythers abilitys is better?

i have 2 scythers, one with technician and the other with steadfast. I was wondering which was better and if that would effect the moveset I’m going to give it (the steadfast scyther is bashful and the tech scyther is quiet) thanks

Technician- Increases the base power of moves with 60 or less by 50%.Steadfast- Speed is boosted by one stage when flinched.

I definitely would go with Technician over Steadfast as moves like Aerial Ace, Quick Attack, and Bug Bite gain a nice boost. Technician is actually one of the best abilities ever and is what makes Scizorthatmuch better.

Technician easy. With moves like Bug Bite, Aerial Ace, and Quick Attack they all get a 50% power boost, plus Bug Bite and Aerial Ace have their power boosted once again because of STAB. Here is one of my favorite movesets for battling. It would be nice if you could one with a Jolly Nature.

Scyther @ Lum BerryTrait: TechnicianJolly Nature

Swords Dance is great for boosting that already good attack. Aerial Ace and Bug Bit are its STAB moves and get the Technician boost. Quick Attack is +1 priority and Technician and is used to finish off weaker or frail foes. Lum Berry protects from harmful status.

Hope I helped! :)

Technician, lots of it’s moves are 60 base power letting him take it to 90.

My recommended moveset:

Scyther (M) @ Life Orb

Trait: Technichian

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpA)

Make sure to start with a swords dance, then aerial ace and bug bite will get technicial boost, life orb boost, STAB boost and swords dance boost which will make scyther a powerhouse. (By the way you should evolve it to scizor). U-turn is a great scouting move being able to switch into a Pokemon that can defend it like a Water-Ground Pokemon that covers it’s weaknesses.
