Where to find Nectan
Nectan lives underwater and shows up across The Lake and Duskgrove, 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 Nectan
Nectan is one of the 132 common ones: a Basic ball is enough, the base rate is 52%, and 581 of the 608 are harder to land. It still freezes on the first throw like everything else, so in The Lake, shared with 92 species, a neighbour with better timing takes it.
Supply
Nectan is one of the abundant ones at 1065, with only 126 species allowed to run looser and 481 held tighter, and even at this end the number is fixed: the 608 caps come to 407,200 creatures, the entire population this world will ever have.
In a fight
As one of 85 water types sharing The Lake, it hits Fire hard and loses ground to Nature, Thunder, Celestial, which is what will be thrown at it. Stamina leads at 60, but only by 4 over the next attribute, so the build is closer to balanced than to specialised.

Questions
Where do I find Nectan in NOKEMON?
The Lake. It never comes on land, so you need a forged rod rather than a ball. No level gate and no PvP, so the only thing standing between you and one is finding it.
How do I catch Nectan?
Throw a Basic ball or better and win the timing bar. The base rate is 52% 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 Nectan rare?
Not by the standards of this world: the cap is 1065. It is still a ceiling though, and once it fills the species stops spawning for everyone.
What are the shiny odds on Nectan?
About 1 in 62 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.
