• Japanese (TL) / Japan: Go's Kailios

Go wanted to catch as many Pokémon as he could and one day while in a forest in the Kanto region, he caught every Bug type Pokémon native to Kanto. It was a hard Pokémon to catch as its claws and aggressive nature proved to be difficult. Pinsir resides at a habitat at the Sakuragi Institute in Vermilion City.

Goh's Heracross is one of 6 Heracross that Kricketina Kylie caught in the Sinnoh region. It tried to help her find a Pinsir but it ended up having to battle against Team Rocket and defend Goh's Pinsir as it is kinda bashful. As Kricketina Kylie was caught in a net, Goh instructed her Heracross what to do in battle and the two showed some chemistry together. After being defended by Heracross, Goh's Pinsir began to like Heracross. Kricketina Kylie noticed this and after Goh caught another Pinsir, she traded this Heracross to him.
