Heracross (Japanese: ヘラクロス Heracros) is a Bug/Fighting-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Gender differences
A female Heracross's horn has a heart-like shape at the end.
Special abilities
Behavior
Heracross live in groups in deep forests. They bite through the bark of trees with their strong jaws to get to the sweet sap inside. This suggests a relation to fellow bug-type, Pinsir, who share many of the same habits. Heracross's eating habits unwittingly enter them into a symbiotic relationship with Butterfree, who also love tree sap, but lack the strength to get to it. Despite their size, great strength, and powerful horns, Heracross are really docile creatures who prefer peace over resorting to violence.
Habitat
Heracross prefer to live in deep forests, where there are many trees for them to suck sap from.
Diet
Main article: Pokémon food
Heracross' preferred diet is mainly made up of sap and other plant juices. This makes them unpopular among plant-type Pokémon like Ash's Bulbasaur, as Heracross often try to suck nourishment from them.
In the anime
Heracross first appeared in A Sappy Ending. Groups of Pinsir and Heracross were having a dispute due to the fact that Team Rocket was siphoning all the tree sap from the Pinsir side of the forest. One Heracross decided to help Ash and his friends for this crisis. Ash captured Heracross at the end of the episode.
Ash sent Heracross back to Professor Oak's lab in Tricks Of The Trade in exchange for his Tauros, at Oak's request.
A Heracross appeared in All in a Day's Wurmple, under the ownership of Forrest Franklin.
In Absol-ute Disaster, a Heracross was owned by a teenager named Gordon. Gordon's Heracross saved Ash's Pikachu from falling while Ash's Swellow was busy saving Max from falling and it helped Absol and Ash's, May's and Brock's Pokémon, with a long-range attack, pushed a boulder in order to stop a flood.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Special manga
Heracross is first seen in Template:PSV. While Silver is communicating with Green, he stands in a full shot of Sprout Tower with a bunch of Johto Pokémon in the background, Heracross being one of them.
Heracross is later seen as one of the Pokémon under Bugsy's control.
In the TCG
- Main article: Heracross (TCG)
Other appearances
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Heracross only appears as a random trophy.
Trophy information
Heracross are powerful creatures that are known to drive their single horns into the bellies of their foes and then toss them over their heads. The immense power of their Megahorn move is said to be the strongest among Bug Pokémon. They are one of several types of Pokémon that can be found by shaking trees.

Trivia
- Heracross is the only Bug-type Pokémon to learn Megahorn. There is a sort of irony in this being that Megahorn is a Bug-type move. This maybe because when Megahorn was introduced, in Generation II, it was exclusive to Heracross.
- Since its debut in Generation II, Heracross has been featured in all regional Pokédexes.
Origin
Name origin
Heracross's name is a combination of Hercules, or Heracles, and the word cross. This Pokémon is based on the Hercules beetle, hence the first part of its name. However, its appearance is obviously based on the common species in Japan. The French name is a combination of scarabée, meaning scarab, a species of beetle that's sacred in Egypt, and rhino; as in rhino beetle. The German name comes from Scarab and horn.
