Stealth Rock (Japanese: ステルスロック Stealth Rock) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation IV.
Effect
Stealth Rock sets a trap of levitating stones around the target Pokémon. Pokémon on the target's field receive damage upon switching in. Stealth Rock is unique among the Spiking moves because the amount of damage inflicted upon switching in is affected by type effectiveness. It also does not stack if multiple layers are set. It does not damage Pokémon with the ability Magic Guard. The moves Rapid Spin and Defog remove the effect of Stealth Rock; Rapid Spin removes Stealth Rock set around the Rapid Spinner while Defog removes Stealth Rock set around the target of Defog.
The damage is taken from the victim's maximum HP, and follows:
- 0.25× effective = 3.125%
- 0.5× effective = 6.25%
- 1× effective = 12.5%
- 2× effective = 25%
- 4× effective = 50%
