* Pinsir can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Scyther}}. Both of them are {{type|Bug}} {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}}. Pinsir is exclusive to {{game3|Red and Blue|Blue|s}}, {{v2|LeafGreen}}, and {{v2|Pearl}}, while Scyther is exclusive to Red, FireRed, and Diamond.
* Pinsir can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Scyther}}. Both are {{type|Bug}} {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}}. Pinsir is not part {{t|Flying}} like Scyther, but can be become so after [[Mega Evolution]]. Pinsir is exclusive to {{game3|Red and Blue|Blue|s}}, {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|LeafGreen|s}}, and {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}}, while Scyther is exclusive to Red, FireRed, and Diamond.
** Additionally, Pinsir can also be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Heracross}}. Both are {{type|Bug}} Pokémon based on beetles who lack an evolutionary family. Unlike Heracross, Pinsir is not part {{type|Fighting}}, but it learns several Fighting-type moves by leveling up. Also, in {{2v2|Black 2|White 2}}, they are [[version exclusives]] in the wild (although both can be found in [[Hidden Grotto]]s in both versions). Both {{p|Heracross}} and Pinsir also have version-exclusive [[Mega Stone]]s: Heracronite is exclusive to Pokémon Y while Pinsirite is exclusive to Pokémon X. Their Mega Stones can both be found in [[Santalune Forest]]. Both Pokémon are also the same height in and out of Mega Evolutions.
