In Generation II, most outdoor areas contain a number of special trees that Pokémon can use Headbutt on. Headbutting a tree sometimes causes a wild Pokémon to drop out. Depending on the time of day, the Pokémon which falls out may be asleep. Some Pokémon can only be caught by this method for example, Pineco, and Heracross.

What did you think of this mechanic? Did you ever bother to use Headbutt outside of battle? Ever catch a Pineco or Heracross with this method?

I liked it, it was that "HM" that there but wasn't really needed.

I caught a Heracross and used it on my main team. I did the same in SoulSilver.

It was a pretty good mechanic, I caught a heraxross in both GSC And HGSS.
I don't remember giving a damn about pineco, because it's one of my least favourite Pokemons of all time.

I actually liked the concept. It bought something new and fresh to the games. Although I never found that Heracross I was looking for, I did think it was quite the nifty move in battle, especially when it caused the opponent to flinch.
