Pokédex Description

-

TRAPINCH’s nest is a sloped, bowl-like pit dug in sand. This POKéMON patiently waits for prey to tumble down the pit. Its giant jaws have enough strength to crush even boulders.

TRAPINCH is a patient hunter. It digs an inescapable pit in a desert and waits for its prey to come tumbling down. This POKéMON can go a whole week without access to any water.

Its big jaws crunch through boulders. Because its head is so big, it has a hard time getting back upright if it tips over onto its back.


It lives in arid deserts. It makes a sloping pit trap in sand where it patiently awaits prey.
