Trapinch
#304 in the Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Pokédex • Ant Pit Pokémon
Ultra Sun
Its jaws are strong enough to crush rocks but so heavy that it can’t get up if it flips over. Sandile seize those moments as their chance.
Ultra Moon
It builds nests that double as traps, lying in wait for its prey to get caught. When night falls, it digs itself a spot beneath the sand to sleep.
