How to Get a Heracross in "HeartGold"
In the "Pokemon" video games, a heracross is a beetle-like creature that flies from tree to tree sucking sap. In battle, the heracross excels in physical strength and can toss most opponents around with its large horn. In addition, as a fighting- and bug-type Pokemon, heracross is resistant to fighting, ground, bug, grass and dark attacks. To obtain a heracross in "Pokemon HeartGold," you must use the head butt ability to shake trees in various parts of the Johto and Kanto regions. Every now and then, a heracross will drop from a tree.
