Where to find Trapinch

Trapinch is not a wild encounter on any of the standard maps.

Trapinch can hatch from a Mirage Egg or a Scorched Egg. Now and then an encounter on a map turns up an egg instead of a wild Pokémon, and which eggs a map can drop depends on its types. The Mirage Egg can drop on River Rafting, Desert Beach, Foggy Wastelands, and Wild Desert. The Scorched Egg can drop on Frozen Cave, River Rafting, Lava Beach, Desert Beach, and Wild Desert. Put the egg in an incubator to hatch it. See crafting and incubation.
