Use moves like: X-Scissor/Bug Bite, Roost/Morning Sun, swords dance and you will run through Ferrothorn pretty easily. Just have to deal with possible paralysis. Have a Heal Bell carrier on your team and you're fine. But, after 2-3 swords dances Scizor is pretty much able to shut down anything else in the opposing party, especially if he gets an agility up while the Ferrothorn stays in(and most do stay in and try to leech seed and paralyze you for 2-3+ turns).
There's really no point in running Scizor if you don't run Bullet Punch :3. And even if you do manage to get past Ferrothorn's Leech Seed + Paralysis + Protect combo, which is still really hard due to none of your attacks being super effective (except, say, Brick Break), it's easily revenged. If you do take the time to set up Agility, I'm pretty sure it can stall you out if used by a good user.
