Description
Pinsir are dangerous bug pokemon.They have a huge crush weight of up to 1 tonne with the large Pincers that they hold proudly at the top of their shell.
They are used for cutting through tree trunks to get to the thick sap inside. Their shells are very strong and have even been used as shields by ancient humans.
They are now rare because they were hunted by insect collectors for their collections. killing and mounting them on their walls. they were a popular hunt as they were so dangerous, thrill seeking hunters would love to hunt down a large male Pinsir.
They are now protected and are only legal to catch to battle in certain areas.
When they were not rare, large groups of the Insect could near wipe out a small forest in a few weeks, and population control was difficult. Tree farmers and forest wardens would be happy for hunters to come in and 'exterminate' the problem.
Pinsir are better trained from a young age as older Pinsir vary rarely listen to their trainers. they are recommended as a pokemon but only to experienced trainers.
Hope you like it
(i like the design but i'm not sure about the actual picture... oh well
)

Spooky, but really cool
You know, I noticed much of the PoKΓ©mon you draw are "almost extinct", "protected by law", I wonder how you imagine the PoKΓ©mon world to be

The same way our world is, nearly 50% of the worlds greater animals are nearly extinct or endangered. My version of the pokemon world is the same, many of the larger pokemon (deemed rare in the game) are rare because their homes have been uprooted or they have been hunted. Plus the pokemon world wouldn't JUST be filled with pokemon, it would be filled with smaller 'non-pokemon' as well, animals that make up the ecosystem.

Anyone who thinks Pinsir should be hunted and mounted should be obliterated. Pinsir is grand.

Yer, but you could say that about people who hunt tigers, or gorillas in our world, but it still goes on, horrible
