Pokémon Description

These Pokémon judge one another based on pincers. Thicker, more impressive pincers make for more popularity with the opposite gender.

This Pokémon clamps its pincers down on its prey and then either splits the prey in half or flings it away.

Abilities

    • Hyper-Cutter

      This Pokémon's Attack cannot be lowered by other Pokémon. This ability does not prevent any Attack losses other than stat modifiers, such as the Attack cut from a burn. This Pokémon can still be passed negative Attack modifiers through heart swap or power swap.

    • Mold-Breaker

      This Pokémon's moves completely ignore abilities that could hinder or prevent their effect on the target. For example, this Pokémon's moves ignore abilities that would fully negate them, such as water absorb; abilities that would prevent any of their effects, such as clear body, shell armor, or sticky hold; and abilities that grant any general protective benefit, such as simple, snow cloak, or thick fat. If an ability could either hinder or help this Pokémon's moves, e.g. dry skin or unaware, the ability is ignored either way. Abilities that do not fit this description, even if they could hinder moves in some other way, are not affected. For example, cursed body only affects potential future uses of the move, while liquid ooze and shadow tag can only hinder a move's effect on the user. This ablity cannot ignore type or form changes granted by abilities, for example color change or forecast; nor effects that were caused by abilities but are no longer tied to an ability, such as the rain from drizzle. This ability cannot ignore multitype at all. An ability ignored by this ability is only nullified while the move is being used. For example, this Pokémon's moves can paralyze a Pokémon with limber, but Limber will activate and heal the paralysis immediately thereafter, and this Pokémon's spikes are not affected by this ability after they have been placed. When this Pokémon enters battle, all participating trainers are notified that it has this ability. This ability functions identically to teravolt and turboblaze.

Hidden Abilities

    • Moxie

      This Pokémon's Attack rises one stage upon knocking out another Pokémon, even a friendly Pokémon. This ability does not take effect when the Pokémon indirectly causes another Pokémon to faint, e.g. through poison or spikes. If this Pokémon knocks out a Pokémon with mummy, the former's ability will change without taking effect.

  I'm feeling lucky!

Pinsir

Japanese: カイロス Kailios

Pinsirs are bug-type Pokémon. They were first introduced during Generation I. They are not known to evolve from any other Pokémon, but they evolve into Mega Pinsir using the Pinsirite. 

Characteristics 

Pinsirs are insect-like Pokémon. They have a dull-brown body divided into segments by thin lines. They have a large pair of gray, spiky pincers on top of their head. There are many long, flat teeth arranged horizontally and have triangular eyes. 

They are capable of seeing color to some degree. They are attracted to the color green. Their legs are short and thick, and their arms are long and thin. They have three claws on their hands and feet. 

Two of their toes face forward, and one faces backward. They weigh around 55 kilograms or 121.3 pounds. They are 1.5 meters tall with a slow leveling rate.

They use their pincers to toss, crush, bludgeon, and tear their opponents. They can lift things twice their weight and shatter large logs. The captured prey are kept in place by piercing thorns and the sheer strength of their horns.

They do not release their prey until they are torn in half. They are also known to enjoy tree sap. They judge others based on their pincers. They gain a pair of large, yellow wings as Mega Pinsir. There is an area of orange venation near the base. There is a pair of orange blades slicing through their wings. They have a spike on each forearm, and their arms become longer. 

Their eyes turn yellow, and they are always in a state of excitement. They can travel up to 50km/h and use their horns to pierce their enemies. They can lift opponents ten times their weight.
