Where to find Cuirass
Cuirass lives underwater and shows up across Frostmere and The Shores, which gives you 2 shorelines to work instead of one. No number of balls helps: without a forged rod it stays down there.
How to catch Cuirass
Cuirass is one of 178 uncommon species, takes a Basic ball or better, and its 34% base leaves 417 of the 608 harder to land than this one. The first ball freezes it, and Frostmere is home to 53 species, so the catch is decided on timing far more often than on luck.
Supply
The cap on Cuirass is 560, tighter than 208 of the 608 species and looser than 399, and finite either way: the ceilings together come to 407,200 creatures for the whole world, forever.
In a fight
As one of 51 water types sharing Frostmere, it hits Fire hard and loses ground to Nature, Thunder, Celestial, which is what will be thrown at it. 5 of its five attributes sit at exactly 55, so the build gives you no steer at all: the matchup decides how it plays.

Questions
Where do I find Cuirass in NOKEMON?
Frostmere. It never comes on land, so you need a forged rod rather than a ball. The door is gated: you need average skill level 20 to get in.
How do I catch Cuirass?
Throw a Basic ball or better and win the timing bar. The base rate is 34% and your accuracy moves it, but the ball is spent whether you land the catch or not, so carry more than you think you need.
Is Cuirass rare?
Not by the standards of this world: the cap is 560. It is still a ceiling though, and once it fills the species stops spawning for everyone.
What are the shiny odds on Cuirass?
About 1 in 87 per capture. Nothing improves it: no ball, no streak, no item and no amount of waiting. The only lever you have is how many you throw at.
