'''Trapinch''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ナックラー''' ''Nuckrar'') is a {{type|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].


=Name origin=
It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Vibrava}} starting at [[level]] 35, which evolves into {{p|Flygon}} starting at level 45.
Trapinch's name is a combination of "trap" and "pinch".


It is based on the larval stage of the antlion, who spend their days in sandy pits before maturing into a winged, adult stage.
==Biology==
Trapinch is an orange, insectoid {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has a round body with a white underside and four stumpy legs. It also has a proportionally large head, small black eyes with twinkle-shaped pupils, and a zigzagging mouth.


=Base stats=
Trapinch's large jaws are powerful enough to crush any boulders that get in its way as it digs through the sand of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|arid deserts}} in which it lives. It can go a week without water or food. Instead of actively hunting prey, it digs into the sand to build its bowl- or cone-shaped nests, waiting for prey to tumble inside and become trapped. When night falls, Trapinch will dig itself a spot underneath the sand and go to sleep. Due to the size of its head in contrast to its small body, Trapinch will be unable to get up after flipping over onto its back, making it vulnerable to natural predators such as {{p|Sandile}}.

[[File:Goh Trapinch.png|thumb|left|250px|Trapinch in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===

In ''[[JN036|Making Battles in the Sand!]]'', [[Goh]] caught a {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Trapinch}} while he was investigating a sandstorm in [[Mauville City]]. It has since made further appearances in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.
 
====Other====
Multiple Trapinch debuted in ''[[AG106|Beg, Burrow and Steal]]''.

In ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2)]]'', [[Solana]] used her Capture Styler on a Trapinch and had it use {{m|Rock Tomb}} to trap {{OBP|J's client|DP071}}'s henchmen's Pokémon that were attacking {{an|Dawn}}, {{an|Brock}}, and [[Officer Jenny]]'s Pokémon.
 
In ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]'', a Trapinch living at [[Mt. Shady]] used its {{a|Arena Trap}} to capture Ash while he and [[Khoury]] were trying to catch a {{p|Gible}}.

It was later reverted in the same episode. The same also occurred with [[Alternate World Goh]]'s Flygon.

==Trivia==
* Trapinch is the only member of its evolutionary family to have a [[Hidden Ability]].
* Trapinch has the lowest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{type|Ground}} Pokémon.
* Trapinch's base {{stat|Attack}} stat is higher than that of its evolved form and is the same as that of its final evolved form. That may be a reference to the fact that antlion larvae are more aggressive and predatory than their adult stages.
** It also has the highest base Attack stat of all Pokémon that can [[Evolution|evolve]] twice.
** Because of this, evolving a Trapinch in [[Pokémon GO]] will result in its CP going down, a trait otherwise only seen in cocoon Pokémon such as {{p|Kakuna}}.
* As of [[Generation VIII]], Trapinch and its evolved forms are the only Pokémon that are in the {{egg|Bug}} and {{egg|Dragon}} [[Egg Group]]s.
 
===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Trapinch, Vibrava and Flygon}}
Trapinch is based on the larval stage of the {{wp|antlion}}, which live in conical sandy pits before maturing into winged adults. Its head resembles a cartoonish depiction of {{wp|trapping#Foothold traps|foothold traps}}.
 
====Name origin====
Trapinch may be a combination of ''trap'' and ''pinch''.
 
Nuckrar may be derived from ''{{wp|nutcracker}}''. It may also allude to ''{{wp|knucker}}'', a type of folkloric dragon which lives in a hole.
