Summary

Heracross' Moxie Ability allows it to run an effective revenge killer build with Choice Scarf since the +1 Attack it gets for knocking out a Pokemon can snowball and make it difficult to switch into once it gets enough boosts.

Pokeball IconHigh Attack Stat and Fighting-type STAB
Pokeball IconGreat physical movepool
Pokeball IconMoxie gives it +1 Attack when it knocks out a Pokemon

Ability and Held Item

Moxie is the best Ability for Heracross for this build, giving it a +1 Attack stat whenever it knocks out a Pokemon. This makes Heracross very difficult to switch into, especially if it gets +2 or more Attack boosts as it can easily KO or 2HKO Pokemon resistant to its moves.

Choice Scarf is the best item for this build so that Heracross can outrun faster and frailer attackers and potentially KO them to get another Moxie boost.

Moves Breakdown

Steel-type Tera Blast allows Heracross to hit Fairy-types like Flutter Mane for super effective damage with Tera Blast. Close Combat and Megahorn are its secondary STAB moves and offers great neutral coverage.

Stone Edge is its last move and allows Heracross to threaten Flying and Fire-types such as Iron Jugulis and Armarouge.

Best Tera Type

Steel is the best Tera type for this build, allowing Heracross to stay on the field against Fairy-types while also giving it a strong Steel-type coverage move in Tera Blast..

As a physical attacker, a Jolly Nature is best so that it can outspeed its usual checks and counters with Choice Scarf.

EV Spread and Nature

Full Attack and Speed EV investment is necessary so that Heracross can hit hard and can outrun slower attackers with Choice Scarf, with the remaining 4 EVs in Special Defense to round off its bulk.

A Jolly Nature ensures Heracross has an effective 150 Speed stat at Lv. 50, which increases to 225 Speed when it has Choice Scarf equipped.

Other Viable Moves

Shadow Claw An alternative to Stone Edge that allows Heracross to hit Ghost-types such as Houndstone.
Earthquake An alternative to Stone Edge that offers great neutral coverage but leaves Heracross walled by Flying-types.

Key Damage Calculations

The following calculations take into account Heracross' Offensive EV spread with a Jolly Nature, as well as +1 Attack from Moxie.

Summary

Guts Heracross is a formidable wallbreaker that can further boost its Attack with Sword Dance. Although slower than the Moxie build, it's difficult to switch into and can easily KO most Pokemon that don't resist its STAB and coverage moves.

Ability and Held Item

Guts is the best Ability for this Heracross build to boost its Attack by 50% when afflicted with a status condition, which this build activates by holding Flame Orb. Once Heracross has a Guts boost, it becomes very difficult to switch into even if it hasn't set up with Swords Dance yet.

Moves Breakdown

Facade becomes a base 140 power move when Heracross is afflicted by Flame Orb's burn and also gets STAB once it terastallizes into a Normal-type.

Heracross' Facade Total Damage Output
Boost Percentage
Base Neutral Damage 100%
Tera STAB +50%
Guts +50%
Swords Dance +200%
Total 400%

Close Combat and Megahorn are its secondary STAB moves and offers great neutral coverage, and also get a damage boost from Guts.

Best Tera Type

Normal is the preferred Tera Type for this build so that Heracross gets STAB from Facade, It also removes its weakness to Flying and Fairy-types, allowing it to stay on the field against its usual checks and counters. As a physical attacker, Adamant is the best nature so that Heracross hits as hard as possible with its boosted moves.

EV Spread and Nature

Full Attack and Speed EV investment is necessary so that Heracross can hit hard and can outrun slower attackers wit, with the remaining 4 EVs in Special Defense to round off its bulk.

An Adamant Nature ensures Heracross has an effective 190 Attack stat at Lv. 50 equipped.

Other Viable Moves

Shadow Claw Can replace Megahorn to prevent Heracross from getting walled by Ghost-types.

Key Damage Calculations

The following calculations take into account Heracross' Offensive EV spread with an Adamant Nature and Guts boost, as well as the +2 Attack from Swords Dance.

How to Use Heracross Effectively

Take Advantage of Moxie

Heracross' great Attack stat and Moxie Ability make it an effective Choice Scarf user that can potentially overpower teams the more Attack boosts it gets. It's also more difficult to wall as it can simply terastallize to get a coverage move to round off its Fighting and Bug-type STAB.

Use Guts and Swords Dance

Access to both Guts and Swords Dance also allows Heracross to fill the role of main setup sweeper. It's very difficult to switch into and its dual Fighting and Bug-type STAB allows it to hit many types for super effective or neutral damage.

How to Build a Team with Heracross

Heracross thrives in hyper offensive teams in both Singles and Doubles and appreciates teammates that can cover its weaknesses and gaps in coverage.

Sample Singles Team

Offensive Lead Special Attacker Physical Attacker
Arcanine ImageArcanine Flutter Mane ImageFlutter Mane Heracross ImageHeracross

This offensive team leads with Arcanine to spread burns with Will-O-Wisp while Flutter Mane provides strong special offense with Shadow Ball and Moonblast.

Heracross' main role is to pick off weakened Pokemon to get a Moxie boost so that it can potentially overpower the remaining Pokemon with its high powered moves.

Heracross is hard checked by Ghost-types if it doesn't run Shadow Claw so make sure that Flutter Mane clears the field of Ghost-types.

Sample Doubles Team

Lead Attacker Redirection Support
Heracross ImageHeracross Amoonguss ImageAmoonguss
Special Attacker Offensive Pivot
Hydreigon ImageHydreigon Wash Rotom ImageWash Rotom

Leading with Amoonguss ensures that you can use Rage Powder to redirect attacks from Heracross so that it can safely activate its Flame Orb and setup Swords Dance. Amoonguss also dissuades other setup sweepers with Clear Smog and can put defensive Pokemon to sleep with Spore.

Hydreigon serves as this team's special attacker and like Heracross, appreciates redirection support so that it can setup Nasty Plot safely. Wash Rotom fills the role of offensive pivot, switching places with Amoonguss so that it can spread burns with Will-O-Wisp.

Counters for Heracross

Take Advantage of its Low Defense

Although Heracross is a fearsome setup sweeper or revenge killer, its low Defense stat means it can't take repeated hits from powerful attackers that can shrug off its attacks.
