In the anime

Trapinch. Trapinch digs a circular pit underground, hides at the bottom and covers it up. When an opponent steps on the ground above Trapinch, it collapses, revealing Trapinch and causing the opponent to slide down the edges of the pit toward Trapinch. The collasping ground at the sides of the pit prevent the opponent's escape.
