'''String Shot''' (Japanese: '''いとをはく''' ''Spit Thread'') is a non-damaging {{type|Bug}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].
'''String Shot''' (Japanese: '''いとをはく''' ''Spit Thread'') is a non-damaging {{type|Bug}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].


==Effect==
==Effect==
String Shot decreases the target's {{stat|Speed}} stat by one stage.  
===Generations I to II===
String Shot decreases the targets' {{stat|Speed}} stat by one stage.
 
In the Generation I and II [[core series]] games, when an in-game opponent outside of the {{gdis|Battle Tower|II}} uses String Shot, the move has a 25% chance to fail in addition to its normal chance to miss.
 
===Generations III to V===
In battles with multiple opponents, String Shot targets all adjacent foes.
 
String Shot can be used as the first move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], causing {{m|Spider Web}} to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn.
 
===Generation VI onwards===
String Shot now decreases the targets' Speed stat by two stages.
 
String Shot can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], causing any of the moves {{m|Electroweb}}, {{m|Spider Web}} and {{m|Sticky Web}} to give an extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.


String Shot hits both opponents in a [[Double Battle|Double Battle]]. In a [[Triple Battle]], String Shot will only hit opposing adjacent Pokémon.
If powered up by a [[Buginium Z]] into Z-String Shot, the user's {{stat|Speed}} stat is raised by one stage.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* String Shot is the only Bug-type status move that can miss.
* String Shot is the only Bug-type status move that has an accuracy less than 100%.
* Even though Larvesta can learn String Shot by leveling up, data entry in Black and White shows that it can also learn it via breeding.
