Pokédex entries

Pokémon Gold / Pokémon LeafGreen
This powerful Pokémon thrusts its prized horn under the enemies' bellies then lifts and throws them.
Pokémon Silver / Pokémon FireRed
Usually docile, but if disturbed while sipping honey, it chases off the intruder with its horn.
Pokémon Ruby
Heracross charges in a straight line at its foe, slips beneath the foe's grasp, and then scoops up and hurls the opponent with its mighty horn. This Pokémon even has enough power to topple a massive tree.
Pokémon Sapphire
Heracross has sharp claws on its feet. These are planted firmly into the ground or the bark of a tree, giving the Pokémon a secure and solid footing to forcefully fling away foes with its proud horn.
Pokémon Emerald
They gather in forests seeking the sweet sap of trees. It is completely clad in a steel-hard shell. It is proud of its horn, which it uses to fling foes.

Name origin

Heracross's name is a combination of Hercules, or Heracles, and the word cross. This Pokémon is based on the rhinoceros beetle.
