Traps

Traps are a type of tile in dungeons that are usually dangerous to the player when stepped on. There are many types and each one has its own effects. Traps are invisible until they are stepped on or revealed, using a normal attack on the tile in front, through the Gummi effect, or a See-Trap Orb. Traps can be avoided if the active Pokémon holds a Trap Scarf, or destroyed with a Trapbust Orb, using the move Defog, or using the move Rapid Spin next to one. All traps have a chance of not activating when stepped on.

Traps typically spawn only in rooms. They cannot spawn on tiles other than the floor, in front of hallways, or in Monster Houses. The varieties of traps found will differ between dungeons.

Usable Traps
Some traps have item counterparts that can be found in Tanren Chambers and other certain dungeons. They can be stacked, and using them lays a trap on the tile the player is standing on if permitted. They are one time use and will still be consumed if used under conditions where a trap cannot be laid. Only enemy Pokémon can activate traps put down by a player. Not all usable traps are available.

Trivia

 * If a player steps on a trap at the same time as an enemy Pokémon, the trap affects the enemy Pokémon as well. Normally, enemy Pokémon will be unaffected by traps, unless they're placed by a player.
 * Grudge Traps used to give all enemy Pokémon on the floor the Grudge status.
 * Traps were able to be revealed by clicking. This was changed however to attacking (the same was done to hidden items).
