I don't understand the part where he's explaining why he should go after a boy, not a girl.

Reply: He is basically deducing that the boy is less likely to just run away and more likely to try to battle him, based on what he knows of humans.

I have a syther named Razor. She was named after a person from a non-poke'mon story of mine, though.

Love it ^-^, also it's interesting to find out more about how Razor knew Stormblade and Shadowdart.

love it, and Descith is such a cutie ^-^

You mentioned a fly in the third chapter but flies dont exist in the pokemon world.

Reply: Sure they do. There is no part of any canon that says "flies don't exist", and all of the QftL universe subscribes to the "animals exist too, but most of them just aren't around" interpretation - they were imported from the animal world but most of them couldn't survive in direct competition with Pokémon and could only live in protected environments. Flies, however, aren't in direct competition with any Pokémon, nor are they nutritious enough for any Pokémon, so there's no reason they couldn't be around.

Under part "VI", it says:

"The humans called it ‘creativity’. The Scyther called it ‘unnecessary wondering about trivial things’."

It sort of jumped out at me. I'm wondering if it is meant to say:

The humans called it ‘CURIOSITY’. The Scyther called it ‘unnecessary wondering about trivial things’.

I could be wrong. Please clarify?

Reply: No, it's meant to be creativity. It's talking about stories and how few Scyther actually bother to think about 'trivial things' enough to want to create some sort of an explanation for them, the way us more creative humans have done with religion through the ages. The comparison isn't quite parallel, since the creativity isn't exactly the wondering part, but this was the basic idea behind what I was trying to say.

"Some of the older Scyther told of how once the moon had caught up with the sun and nearly extinguished her fire, but she had gotten away narrowly and the eternal race had continued."

Is it just me, or is this a reference to a solar eclipse?

Reply: Yes, it is.

Wow, this story was really good. Scyther's one of my favorite characters in the main Fic. Good Job!

In the beginning paragraphs, the paragraph describing the time of day has a mistake. Eh, it's just a minor mistake, but dusk refers to the sunset, not the sunrise. Dawn, morning, or the like would be be a better term to use.
