Competitive Analysis

Stealth Rock is a commonly used entry hazard in the metagame. It serves as a threat to numerous Pokemon and is very easy to use.

Hazard for Most Attackers

With most Fire and Flying-types having the role of attackers in a team composition, Stealth Rock is a big threat to these Pokemon as it will deal super-effective damage if they switch in to the field.

Ease of Use

Compared to Spikes and Toxic Spikes, you only ever need to use Stealth Rock once, as its damage calculation will depend on the switched-in Pokemon's durability to Rock-type attacks.

Stealth Rock Counters

There are a few things to look out for if you're planning to set up Stealth Rock. One would be Heavy-Duty Boots, and most Fire and Flying-type Pokemon will be holding this item to negate any damage from Stealth Rock.

Moves such as Rapid Spin and Defog can also remove Stealth Rock in battle.

Would like to note that eiscue does not get stealth rock, this was likely an accidental input by the author. Other info is all correct.
