Sturdy (Japanese: がんじょう Sturdy) is an Ability introduced in Generation III.
Effect
In battle
Generations III and IV
Sturdy makes the Pokémon unaffected by one-hit knockout moves.
Generation V onward
In addition to Sturdy's previous effect, Sturdy now works like a Focus Sash, causing the Pokémon to have 1 HP remaining if another Pokémon's attack or confusion damage would have brought it from full health to 0 HP. Sturdy will activate as long as a Pokémon has full HP before the attack, and therefore it can activate multiple times if the Pokémon is brought back to full health, or if the Pokémon has a maximum of 1 HP.
If a Pokémon with Sturdy is holding a Focus Sash, Sturdy will activate first. A Pokémon with Mold Breaker will ignore Sturdy. When a multi-strike move hits a Pokémon with Sturdy, Sturdy's effect can only activate for hits while the user has full HP. Destiny Bond and Perish Song will not cause Sturdy to activate.
Outside of battle
Sturdy has no effect outside of battle.
Pokémon with Sturdy
- During his Gym battle in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock uses a Rhyhorn with the Ability Sturdy, even though Rhyhorn cannot normally have that Ability.
In other games
Pokémon UNITE
In Pokémon UNITE, Sturdy is Crustle's Ability. It increases the user's Defense and Special Defense (based on the user's level) for every 7% of the HP they are missing, up to 70%.
