The '''Rhydon trap''' is a [[Error traps and anti-cheating traps|error trap]] in {{RGBY}}, and the [https://tcrf.net/Proto:Pok%C3%A9mon_Gold_and_Silver| Japanese Gold/Silver Nintendo Space World 1997 demo].
 
Whenever a [[glitch Pokémon]] with a Pokédex number ([[glitch Pokémon family|family]]) greater than 151 (or 0) is captured in the wild or obtained as a gift Pokémon, and its Pokédex entry is registered, it will become a Rhydon if there is space in the party or a Rhydon/original glitch Pokémon hybrid if the glitch Pokémon is sent to the Pokémon Storage System. In the demo versions of Gold and Silver, this Pokémon is Bulbasaur instead, due to it occupying index number 1, where Rhydon had been located previously.

Despite this, it is unclear what the developers intend to achieve by setting [wcf91] to 01, since this function is called in multiple places, and while some of them will use the value of [wcf91] for further processing (e.g. adding captured Pokémon to party), others will get the species byte from some other memory address instead. In particular, if there was no space in the party before catching the glitch Pokémon and it is sent to the Pokémon Storage System, it will become an [[unstable hybrid Pokémon]] with Rhydon as the donor and the original glitch Pokémon as the recipient.
