Where to find Heracross in the Teal Mask DLC

According to Heracross’ Pokedex entry, it primarily lives in bamboo groves. There are a handful of bamboo groves where Hercross can spawn.

On the map, the small patches of trees denote bamboo groves. They can be found along Reveler’s Road, and on either side of the mouth of the river leading to Fellhorn Gorge.

Does Heracross evolve in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet?

Unfortunately, Heracross did not gain a new evolution in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet. While Heracross does have a Mega Evolution, it can’t be used in Scarlet & Violet.

Thankfully, Heracross’ stats are incredibly solid for a Pokemon with no evolution. With a base stat total of 500, and base 125 Attack and 85 Speed, Heracross should have no trouble holding its own against strong opponents.
