Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

RubyTRAPINCH’s nest is a sloped, bowl-like pit dug in sand. This POKéMON patiently waits for prey to tumble down the pit. Its giant jaws have enough strength to crush even boulders.
SapphireTRAPINCH is a patient hunter. It digs an inescapable pit in a desert and waits for its prey to come tumbling down. This POKéMON can go a whole week without access to any water.
EmeraldIts big jaws crunch through boulders. Because its head is so big, it has a hard time getting back upright if it tips over onto its back.
FireRed / LeafGreen / XIt lives in arid deserts. It makes a sloping pit trap in sand where it patiently awaits prey.
Diamond / Pearl / Platinum / Black / WhiteIt makes a conical pit in desert sand and lies in wait at the bottom for prey to come tumbling down.
HeartGold / SoulSilverIts nest is a sloped, bowl-like pit in the desert. Once something has fallen in, there is no escape.
Black 2 / White 2 / YIt makes an inescapable conical pit and lies in wait at the bottom for prey to come tumbling down.
Omega RubyTrapinch’s nest is a sloped, bowl-like pit dug in sand. This Pokémon patiently waits for prey to tumble down the pit. Its giant jaws have enough strength to crush even boulders.
Alpha SapphireTrapinch is a patient hunter. It digs an inescapable pit in a desert and waits for its prey to come tumbling down. This Pokémon can go a whole week without access to any water.
SunIt can live for a week without eating a thing. It waits patiently at the bottom of its nest for prey to appear.
MoonAs it digs through the sand, its giant jaws crush any rocks that obstruct its path. It builds a funnel-shaped nest.
Ultra SunIts 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 MoonIt 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.

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
