==Strategy/Usage==
Hevijak can do a lot for your army, once you gather up enough money for him. For most of the time, he will work as a second Bahamut Cat, staying in the back and attacking rarely, but with powerful attacks. This makes him fairly versatile and rarely unusable. 
He's nothing special against Reds, as Roe Cat is a far better specialist tanker, while Dread Pirate Catley already exists for knocking them back, not to mention other, more effective attackers. Red enemies are often way too aggressive and must be subdued with an equal amount of brute force or crowd-controlling effects, with knockback being a subpar option and tanking only feasible for units with lower recharge times.
Hevijak has better matchups against Aku, as he can pierce their Shields and his resistance allows him to tank Aku's Surges for his other abilities to come into play. There's also the general lack of alternatives. His range isn't the highest, but it's enough to stay clear of Fallen Bear and Dark Priest Mamon. Additionally, Hevijak can make it inside Ackey's blindspot, though this depends on your meatshields and the enemies supporting Ackey. Since his supporters will be less likely to hold the ground as well, he'll have to rely on his health more, meaning that he can still turn into a waste of money if summoned without the proper support. With the proper support and skill, Hevijak can be a staple on many anti-Aku lineups.
Needless to say, Hevijak doesn't perform well outside of his niche, so it isn't recommended to use him on mixed stages (unless, of course, if you can utilize his raw damage).
===True Form===
Hevijak's main gain in this form is his guaranteed chance to knockback his targets, making it that much easier to regain ground. Even when against Shielded Aku enemies, the only thing he needs is a well-placed Shield Pierce or assistance from other units. The other stat increases are good to have, but being a speciality unit that works defensively, the health and range boosts (can only outrange Lord of Ruin Jagando by 5) are more important, whereas the damage boost, while not bad at all, doesn't do much, even if it makes his presence much more impactful. Considering it requires rare and elusive materials, this may not be the True Form for everyone, but some will always find it necessary if they lack alternatives or if they're used to having Hevijak around for Aku anyways.
Apart from that, Hevijak also gains a Cat Combo with Gas Mask Cat and Radical Cat, boosting unit health by 20% for only three slots. Considering all three units do enjoy a good health increase with their roles and due to its sheer efficiency, getting this True Form even if just for the Combo might be actually worth it.

==Catfruit Evolution==
==Appearance==
*Normal Form: A floating serpentine dragon with a long, slender body. His skull-shaped shoulder then split into two long, but thin wings. A Cat's face lies in his chest, and his tail is wrapped around a large black flower.
*Evolved Form: The most obvious change in this form is that the majority of his body is much darker. His smaller wings have grown, the Cat face has taken on a more Crazed appearance, and the flower appears to have bloomed.
*True Form: His wings are larger and now resemble volcanic rock with the tips of all his spikes glowing red like magma. His Cat face and shoulders all have orange eyes.
==Trivia==
*Hevijak's name is most likely derived from the Japanese words 蛇 hebi (snake) and 邪悪 jāku (wicked/evil), in which case it essentially means "evil snake". Incidentally, both 蛇 and 邪 can be read as ja, making this somewhat of a pun.
