Pinsir is a bipedal, {{wp|Coleoptera|coleopteran}} {{wp|insectoid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a wide, dull-brown body divided into segments by thin lines. On top of its head is a large pair of gray, spiky pincers on top of its head. In its mouth are many long, flat teeth arranged horizontally and it has triangular eyes. Capable of seeing color to some degree, Pinsir appears to be attracted to the color green. Its legs are short and thick, while its arms are long and thin. It has three claws on each hand and foot; two of its toes face forward and one backward. | Pinsir is a bipedal, {{wp|Coleoptera|coleopteran}} {{wp|insectoid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a wide, dull-brown body divided into segments by thin lines.

Pinsir can use its pincers to crush, toss, bludgeon, or tear opponents; lift things twice its weight; and shatter logs. Captured prey is kept in place by the piercing thorns and sheer strength of Pinsir's horns and will not be released until they are torn in half. Pinsir’s horns are quite flexible as depicted in the [[Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards]] where they have a wide range of motion. In addition to hunting prey, [[EP119|the anime]] has shown that it enjoys tree sap. Pinsir lives deep in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|temperate forests and jungles}}, where it burrows underground or hides in the treetops on nights cold enough to render it immobile. In [[Alola]], it has a rivalry with {{p|Vikavolt}} and gets along with {{p|Heracross}}. Pinsir are known to judge each other based on their pincers. The pincers determine its popularity with the opposite gender based on how more thick and impressive it looks. | Pinsir can use its pincers to crush, toss, bludgeon, or tear opponents; lift things twice its weight; and shatter logs.
