Biology
Trapinch is an orange, insectoid Pokémon. It has a round body with a white underside and four stumpy legs. It has a proportionally large head, small eyes, and a zigzagging mouth. Its large jaws are powerful enough to crush boulders. This Pokémon lives in arid deserts, where it builds its nest in a bowl-shaped pit dug in sand.

- Trapinch is the lowest base Speed stat of all Ground-type Pokémon.
- Trapinch's base Attack stat is higher than its evolved form's and is the same as its final evolved form's. That may be a reference to the fact that antlion larvae are more aggressive and predatory than their adult stages.

Origin
It is based on the larval stage of the antlion, which live in conical sandy pits before maturing into winged adults.
Name origin
Trapinch is a combination of trap (describing traps it uses to catch prey) and pinch (referring to its powerful jaws).
Nuckrar may be a contraction of nutcracker, referencing its nutcracker-like jaws. Nuckrar may also be a play on the word "knucker", a type of folkloric dragon which lives in a hole.
