Sticky Web (Japanese: ねばねばネット Sticky Net) is a non-damaging Bug-type move introduced in Generation VI.

Effect

Sticky Web sets an entry hazard around the opposing Pokémon, which lowers their Speed stat by one stage upon switching in. It doesn't affect Flying-type Pokémon, Pokémon with the Levitate Ability, or Pokémon holding an Air Balloon.

The moves Rapid Spin and Defog remove the effect of Sticky Web; Rapid Spin removes Sticky Web set around the user, while Defog removes Sticky Web set on both sides.

Sticky Web can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, giving the user an extra three appeal points if String Shot was used in the prior turn.

If powered up by a Buginium Z into Z-Sticky Web, the user's Speed stat rises one stage.

In other games

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

Unlike the other entry hazards present in the Mystery Dungeon games, Sticky Web does not produce a trap on the dungeon floor. It instead targets the enemy in front and reduces their Travel Speed. It also makes the enemy's held item sticky. If a teammate is hit by this move, a random item in the Bag or Toolbox becomes sticky.

With some exceptions, Pokémon learnsets match those from the core series games: Super Mystery Dungeon = Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. MD Rescue Team DX = Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.
