[edit] Effect
[edit] In-Battle
A Pokémon with Sturdy is immune to the four One-Hit KO moves, and starting with Generation V, a Pokémon with Sturdy cannot faint in one attack if it's HP is full.
Sturdy only activates on the first hit when the HP of its user is full, thus a multi-hit attack can bypass this Ability. Sturdy won't protect its user from fainting by way of Destiny Bond.
[edit] Overworld
Sturdy doesn't have any effect in the overworld.
