Revision as of 11:29, 7 May 2015

Template:Heracross Heracross (Japanese: ヘラクロス Herakurosu) is a Bug/Fighting-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II.

Biology

Physiology

Heracross is a large, blue, winged bipedal beetle. It has a capsule-shaped thorax similar to Pinsir's, a pair of yellow eyes and two clawed arms and feet. Growing from its head is a large T-shaped horn, which is flanked on either side by a smaller antenna.

Behavior

Heracross is a powerful but docile Pokémon. Its natural habitat is forests and its diet consists of tree sap, nectar and honey. Its strength is such that it can topple large trees if it so wished. Heracross's main weapon is its large horn, of which it is particularly proud. However, it only uses it in the wild to deter its foes, not hurt them.

Main article: Ash's Heracross

In the Pokémon anime, Ash catches a Heracross in the episode A Sappy Ending. The Heracross is powerful, but also is distracted by sap, to the point where it tries to feed off the nectar of Ash's Bulbasaur's flower bulb when Bulbasaur is in sight. It is currently at Professor Oak's lab.

Trainers with a Heracross

Trivia

  • Heracross was thought to be a pre-evolution of Pinsir before the release of Pokémon Gold and Silver.
  • Despite being able to fly, it is unable to learn Fly and is not a Flying-type Pokémon.
  • It is the only Bug/Fighting-type Pokémon.
  • This Pokémon is modeled after the Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle, an insect that is used as a reference in many well known anime/manga.
  • The only Bug-type move that Heracross can learn is Megahorn.
