Ribombee is a metagame-defining Sticky Web lead found in hyper offense teams due to its impressive Speed tier, notably outpacing maximum Speed invested Arceus formes, avoiding Taunt from them. Moonblast allows Ribombee to discourage Ting-Lu from laying entry hazards, Koraidon and Miraidon from setting up, and Giratina-O from using Defog. Stun Spore is used to cripple Pokemon that can otherwise use Ribombee as setup fodder such as Arceus formes and Zacian-C. Psychic is an option to hit Glimmora for super effective damage, deterring it from using Mortal Spin. Charm is also an alternative move that is used to annoy physical attackers, hindering them from setting up. Tera Ghost allows Ribombee to block Rapid Spin from leads like Great Tusk while also providing it with an immunity to Extreme Speed from Arceus. Tera Steel is an alternative option to block Mortal Spin from Glimmora. Teammates such as Koraidon, Zacian-C, Calyrex-S, Arceus-Ground, Extreme Killer Arceus, Miraidon, and Eternatus benefit heavily from Sticky Web being up, as it makes them much more difficult to revenge kill, with some such as Zacian-C and Eternatus also providing utility by blocking Mortal Spin from Glimmora and setting up Toxic Spikes, respectively. As Ribombee gets shut down by Taunt from Calyrex-S and Miraidon, offensive checks to them such as Extreme Killer Arceus and Arceus-Ground are preferred as teammates. As Ribombee lacks Taunt, another lead such as Arceus-Ground or Glimmora can be used to prevent entry hazards from opposing leads.

Ribombee is a metagame defining Sticky Web lead found in hyper offense due to its impressive speed tier, notably outspeeding maximum Speed invested Arceus maybe mention that avoiding taunt is the big reason, but not super important. Moonblast allows Ribombee to hit Koraidon, Ting-Lu, Miraidon and Giratina-O for super effective damage, discouraging them from setting up entry hazards, (AC) or using it as set up fodder, (AC) or freely defogging on it in Giratina-O's case. Stun Spore is used to cripple Pokemon after setting up webs to gain momentum while also punishing set up from the likes of Arceus formes and Zacian-C. U-turn allows Ribombee to pivot its teammates in. Psychic is an option to hit Glimmora for super effective damage preventing it from setting up Spikes the important thing is that it discourages mortal spin, not preventing spikes (spikes arent super important). reword to state this. Charm is also an alternative move that is used to annoy physical attackers, discouraging them from gaining momentum setting up. Tera Ghost allows Ribombee to block Rapid Spin from leads while also providing it with an immunity to Extreme Speed from Arceus. Tera Steel is an alternative option to block Mortal Spin from Glimmora, that may otherwise remove Sticky Webs and cause thr the team to lose momentum. Teammates such as Koraidon, Zacian-C, Calyrex-S, Arceus-Ground, Extreme Killer Arceus, Miraidon and Eternatus benefit heavily from Sticky Webs being up, as they become nearly impossible to revenge kill, with some such as Zacian-C and Eternatus providing utility against opposing teams by blocking Mortal Spin from Glimmora and setting up Toxic Spikes respectively. As Ribombee gets shut down by Taunt from Calyrex-S and Miraidon, offensive checks to them such as Extreme Killer Arceus and Arceus-Ground are preferred as teammates. As Ribombee lacks Taunt, another lead such as Arceus-Ground or Glimmora can be used to prevent entry hazards from opposing leads.
