Get it? Because the name is unknown. The subject of this article has no official name.
The name currently in use is a fan designator; see below for more information.

An entry hazard is a condition that affects a side of the field that causes any Pokémon that is sent into battle on that side of the field to be afflicted by a negative effect. Entry hazards are created by moves, normally status moves.

Some moves effects can remove entry hazards. Rapid Spin removes entry hazards from the user's side of the field; Defog removes entry hazards from the target's side of the field (Generation IV-V) or both sides of the field (Generation VI onward). Additionally, if a grounded Poison-type enters the battle, it will remove Toxic Spikes from its side of the field.

Entry hazards do activate when a new Pokémon is summoned in an SOS Battle. Entry hazards do not activate for Support Trainers joining the battle in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!
