How to Catch Wimpod in Pokémon Sun and Moon
In Pokémon Sun and Moon, Wimpod is a small arthropod Bug/Water-type Pokémon that evolves into the Bug/Water-type Golisopod, which is the strongest Pokémon of Team Skull's leader, Guzma. However, catching Wimpod isn't as simple as going through tall grass and encountering it. This article will explain how to catch it.
Steps

Identify where Wimpod can be found. It's found on the beaches of Route 8, Poni Breaker Coast, and Poni Wilds. Depending on where you go to find it, it'll be between level 17 and level 43.

Go to one of the areas where Wimpod can be found. It'll be found in areas with a grey-colored ground and a small hole nearby. You'll see it just standing around, until you get close, in which case it'll run away and try to go back to its hole.

Go on your Tauros Charge and hold B while running to chase it. It'll try to run away, but as long as you don't hit any of the rocks in your way, you'll be able to catch it. After catching it, a red exclamation mark will appear above its head and you'll go into battle with it. If you don't catch it, exit and re-enter the area to respawn it. It may not end up respawning, in which case try again until it does.

Catch the Wimpod. Unlike with most wild Pokémon, it's not as simple as weakening it and throwing a Poké Ball. Its ability, Wimp Out, makes it flee the battle if it gets below half health. Your best bet is to throw a Quick Ball at the start of the battle and hope it captures it. If that fails, weaken it a little bit, making sure its health bar is still green, then throw Poké Balls at it. If you're capturing it on Route 8, you can use Nest Balls for an easier capture.

What's your reaction?
