Almighty Zard
He has returned.
I definitely think that Heracross's battle record is overrated. I've noticed that a lot of Satoshi's older Pokemon tend to be put on a pedestal as a result of nostalgia, and Heracross is one of the most blatant cases. Not that he's a bad Pokemon per se [although his sap gag irritated me a bit], it's just that as a battler he was rather average.
It was put into Storage too soon I think, then again pokemon that can't evolve at all tend to be hit or miss when it comes to development.
I mean Snorlax has one of the best win records out of all of Ash's pokemon, Hawlucha was handled pretty good...Torkoal(teeth clinching) clearly didn't need to be caught at all.
