** 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 [[Mega Evolution]]: Mega Heracross is exclusive to Pokémon Y while Mega Pinsir is exclusive to Pokémon X. Their Mega Stones can both be found on [[Santalune Forest]].
