'''Goh's Pinsir''' (Japanese: '''ゴウのカイロス''' ''Go's Kailios'') is the seventh {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that [[Goh]] {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Kanto]] [[region]], and his eighth overall.

===History===

In ''[[JN006|Working My Way Back to Mew!]]'', [[Goh]] encountered Pinsir in [[Vermilion Forest]] while he was preparing to catch himself a {{p|Butterfree}}. Pinsir startled {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} and began to attack. Scared, Goh started throwing things at Pinsir, eventually throwing a {{i|Poké Ball}} at it, causing it to be caught by Goh. It was later seen with Goh's other {{type|Bug}} Pokémon when [[Professor Cerise]] offered it a place in the [[Cerise Laboratory]].

In ''[[JN023|Panic in the Park!]]'', Pinsir tries to calm down some of Goh's other Pokémon while they started to argue. When {{TP|Goh|Golurk}} loses control, Pinsir joins the other Pokémon to help Goh's three {{p|Cascoon}} [[Evolution|evolve]] safely.

In ''[[JN033|Trade, Borrow, and Steal!]]'', Goh met a girl named [[Kricketina Kylie]], who wanted to [[trade]] Pinsir for one of her Pokémon, something that Goh was reluctant to do. Goh offered to help Kricketina find a Pinsir of her own which they agreed to do. When Goh later caught another Pinsir, he traded it for Kricketina's {{TP|Goh|Heracross}} as his Pinsir had fallen in love with it.

 

 

In ''[[JN136|This Could be the Start of Something Big!]]'', Pinsir attended a surprise party hosted by the Lab members commemorating Goh and Ash's departure.

===Personality and characteristics===

[[File:Goh and Pinsir.png|thumb|250px|Pinsir and Goh]]

Pinsir is a timid {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} who doesn't like to fight, as seen in ''[[JN007|Serving Up the Flute Cup!]]'' when Goh was considering which of his team to use in the [[Battle Frontier Flute Cup]], Pinsir avoided being chosen. This was seen again in ''[[JN033|Trade, Borrow, and Steal!]]'' when Goh was left to battle {{TRT}}, Pinsir hid behind a tree, not wishing to battle. It has often been seen with Goh's smaller {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, such as {{TP|Goh|Caterpie}}. When it is startled or uncomfortable it will often cower behind Goh or an object like a tree. Goh is generally accommodating to Pinsir's personality, and while he sometimes asks Pinsir if it is up for a battle, he never pressures it into battling against its will.

Pinsir doesn't seem to like conflict as it was seen trying to prevent [[Goh's Grimer]] for getting aggressive over the food shortage in ''[[JN023|Panic in the Park!]]'', as well as attempting to help the other Pokémon that Grimer was blaming. It loves picking flowers and can be playful with others of the lab.

In ''[[JN033|Trade, Borrow, and Steal!]]'', Pinsir developed a crush on Heracross, which motivated Goh to [[trade]] his second Pinsir for Heracross so that they may be together. Pinsir's love for Heracross is so strong that it became depressed when it saw Heracross falling in love with Goh's newly caught {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Lilligant}}. This continued in ''[[JN107|Big Brother to the Rescue!]]'', and when {{TP|Professor Cerise|Yamper}} and {{TP|Goh|Panpour}} appeared to have sorted out the conflict, Heracross became attracted by {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Alcremie}}'s smell, leading Pinsir to become furious and attack Heracross.
