This could be… quite a few different tropes. Splash Damage, Area of Effect, and Damage Over Time are the obvious ones, and it can also be an instance of You Will Not Evade Me (cutting off an enemy's escape route). There's also something pertinent I'm missing, and I'm fairly sure that it's not Field Power Effect (otherwise Spikes and Stealth Rock from Pokémon would be listed as Field Power Effects, and IIRC they are not). So the character who employs a technique like this could probably be considered a Trap Master. I'll have to investigate this further and get back to you.

Okay, never mind, Field Power Effect mixed with Damage Over Time and Booby Trap sounds like what you have in mind.
