Biography[]
Under the ownership of Kricketina Kylie, Heracross was brought out to face Ash Ketchum and his Pikachu in a Pokémon World Championships match. In the end, Heracross was defeated and his trainer's rank went down. Afterwords, Kylie attempted to convince Goh to trade his Pinsir to her for one of her Pokémon, but he declined. However, he told her that he would instead help her find her own Pinsir. During this time, Goh's Pinsir started to become interested in Heracross after seeing how strong it was. After searching without much luck, Kylie and Heracross created a special honey that would attract wild Pokémon.
When Team Rocket members Jessie and James appeared, they captured Ash, Kylie, Raboot, and Sobble in a net, leaving Goh, Pinsir, and Heracross to fight them off. Pinsir ended up becoming too scared and hid behind a tree, so Goh took control of Heracross and battled them. When they attempted to reach Pinsir, Heracross protected them and Pinsir's interest in Heracross became a full-blown crush. After Goh and Heracross sent Team Rocket blasting off, a wild Pinsir finally showed up, but since Kylie was captured, she couldn't capture it, so Goh caught it before it could get away. Kylie told him that he should trade it for her Heracross, because he and Pinsir were in love. They went back to the Pokémon Center and used a Trade Machine to make the exchange official, and Heracross officially became one of Goh's Pokémon.
