Heracross

BUGFIGHTINGRARE

Heracross shows up in the level 100 hunt and averages 112 of loot and 6,008 XP per kill.

Is Heracross worth hunting?

Among the 29 Pokémon in the level 100 hunt, Heracross ranks 19th for loot per kill, 6% below the level's median.

Its loot-to-XP ratio sits close to the level median — neither a money hunt nor a pure XP hunt, it serves both at a similar pace.

The rare drop worth waiting for is Punch Stone (5,000 at the NPC), at 0.62% chance — on average one every 161 kills.

For XP it ranks 22 of 29 at this level — 6,008 per kill.

At the same level, Slowking pays more: 278 per kill.
