Pinsir

Bug
Available for PLZA SWSH BDSP LGPE
Order Pinsir — free

Pinsir is a Bug-type Pokémon (National Dex #127) with a middling stat total of 500. You can have one built for Legends: Z-A, Sword & Shield, BDSP and Let's Go, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Attack at 125, which makes it a slow but heavy-hitting attacker. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Pinsir takes super-effective damage from Fire, Flying, Rock. It resists Grass, Fighting, Ground. Its ability options are Hyper Cutter, Mold Breaker, Moxie, and you choose which one your copy carries.

In-game, Pinsir has 35 recorded encounter locations across Legends: Z-A (5), Sword & Shield (11), BDSP (14), Let's Go (5) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. A shiny Pinsir ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
