Pinsir (Japanese: カイロス Kailios) is a Bug-type Pokémon.

While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, it can Mega Evolve into Mega Pinsir using the Pinsirite.

Biology

Pinsir is a bipedal Pokémon with a wide, dull brown body and a large pair of grey, spiky pincers on top of its head. In its mouth are many long, flat teeth arranged horizontally. Its legs are short and thick while its arms are long and thin, and each limb ends with three grey claws. Pinsir's limbs and abdomen are divided into segments. Its eyes are simple, but usually appear angry.

It can use its pincers to crush, toss, bludgeon, or tear opponents, lift things twice its weight, and shatter logs. Captured prey are 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. In addition to hunting prey, the anime has shown that it enjoys tree sap. Pinsir lives deep in the forest, where it burrows underground or hides in the treetops on nights cold enough to render it immobile.

Generation I Red If it fails to crush the victim in its pincers, it will swing it around and toss it hard. Blue Yellow Grips its prey in its pincers and squeezes hard!

Trivia

• Pinsir can be seen as a parallel to Scyther. Both of them are Bug-type Generation I Pokémon. Pinsir is exclusive to Blue, LeafGreen, and Pearl, while Scyther is exclusive to Red, FireRed, and Diamond.
  • Additionally, Pinsir can also be seen as a counterpart to Heracross. Both are Bug-type Pokémon based on beetles who lack an evolutionary family. Unlike Heracross, Pinsir is not part Fighting-type, but it learns several Fighting-type moves by leveling up. Also, in Black 2 and White 2, they are version exclusives in the wild (although both can be found in Hidden Grottos in both versions).

Origin

It is based on a stag beetle, possibly the Prosopocoilus inclinatus, a popular beetle used in insect fighting.

Name origin

Pinsir is a corruption of pincer, referring to the claws on its head. It could also involve the title sir.

Kailios may be a combination of the Greek letter Χ (カイ kai) and cross (referring to its scissor-like horns). Alternatively, it may be a combination of 傀 kai (large), 魁偉 kaii (brawny), or 刈 kai (cut) combined with κοριός korios (Greek for bug).

In other languages

Language Title Meaning Japanese カイロス Kailios From Χ, 傀 kai, 魁偉 kaii or 刈 kai combined with κοριός korios French Scarabrute A combination of scarabée and brute Spanish Pinsir Same as English name German Pinsir Same as English name Italian Pinsir Same as English name Korean 쁘사이저 Ppeusaijeo From 부수다 busuda, 뿔 ppul, and scissors Mandarin Chinese 大甲 Dàjiǎ Literally "Big armor" Cantonese Chinese 鉗刀甲蟲 Kìhmdōugaapchùhng Literally "Pincer-blade beetle"
