Extremely sticky and clingy. The more it's resisted, the more tenacious it becomes. Such is its personality.
Tarantriss lands in the upper half of the Paldex with 110 base HP, 100 attack and 100 defense — no single number carries it, but nothing on the stat sheet is a liability either. HP is its best stat at 110, in the 76th percentile of all Pals — a real strength rather than a rounding difference.
Elementally, Tarantriss is Dark: it takes extra damage from Dragon attacks and deals extra damage to Neutral Pals — the matchup that decides most of its Alpha and tower fights.
Tarantriss is a flexible base worker with 4 of the game's 12 work suitabilities. Handiwork at level 3 leads the sheet, with Gathering, Transporting and Medicine Production behind it. That puts Tarantriss at #34 of 109 for Handiwork: a solid pick early on, though there are better dedicated workers to swap in later. It also holds Gathering at level 3, high enough to be worth assigning rather than leaving as filler.

Tarantriss is found on the Palpagos Islands map, where the game data places 133 separate spawn points for it. Every one of them sits in the Grasslands, so that is the only biome worth searching for a wild Tarantriss. They are packed into a single stretch in the north-east of the map, around X -169k, Y 220k — land there and you are on top of the population.
Wild Tarantriss spawn between level 20 and level 55, so the ones you meet late in a run hit noticeably harder than the first you catch. Night changes the picture: Tarantriss uses a different set of spawn points after dark, which the Night view above plots separately. Beyond open-world spawns, Tarantriss also turns up in dungeons, dungeon boss rooms and Alpha arenas. It also has one fixed Alpha arena, marked with a diamond on the map — that Alpha respawns, so it is a repeatable source.
