Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
The user will lay a Stealth Rock tile. If any opposing Pokémon steps on the tile, they will receive damage. When the player uses Stealth Rock, the trap is hidden until a Pokémon activates it and has no effect on the user or allies; however, if the opposing Pokémon uses this move, this trap will be visible to player so that it can be avoided. Unlike the main series games, the damage dealt by Stealth Rock does not depend on weakness or resistance. A Stealth Rock tile cannot be placed under one-tile-wide hallways or the entrance of a room.
