== Sturdy Sandstorm combo? ==
Over on the TV Tropes wiki, a user proposed that in Generation V, because the "Sturdy" ability now functions similarly to the Focus Sash, there is a potentially deadly combo:
* Breed an Aron with Sturdy, Endeavor, and equip the Shell Bell on it.
* Create a Sandstorm in battle, then have Aron use Endeavor.
** If the opponent strikes first, Aron survives because it's Sturdy and has full HP.
** Endeavor then reduces the opponent to 1 HP; this counts as damage, causing the shell bell to restore Aron's on HP, potentially back to full.
** The sandstorm finishes the opponent off at end of turn.
** Possible to rinse and repeat for the remainder of battle.
Can anyone verify this?  The obvious counter-tactics appear to be:
* Pokemon immune to Sandstorm
* Swipe moves
* Nullifying either Aron's ability or item prior to attack
* Whether or not Sturdy works multiple times per battle

This "Trivia" piece might be a stretch. You know how similar Aron and Sheildon are? Well, have you guys ever noticed that both their names are very close to human names? As in Aron-Aaron and Shieldon-Sheldon?

This only occurred to me because I'd been mispronouncing Aron's name as Aaron until recently, lol. - unsigned comment from Udivision (talkcontribs) 18:54, 22 February 2009

Trivia

It is pretty obvious that it's English name could have been based on Iron. Should be added to the trivia. ♢ DeadUniverse Hello! ♢ 16:40, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Sturdy Sandstorm combo?

Over on the TV Tropes wiki, a user proposed that in Generation V, because the "Sturdy" ability now functions similarly to the Focus Sash, there is a potentially deadly combo:

  • Breed an Aron with Sturdy, Endeavor, and equip the Shell Bell on it.
  • Create a Sandstorm in battle, then have Aron use Endeavor.
    • If the opponent strikes first, Aron survives because it's Sturdy and has full HP.
    • Endeavor then reduces the opponent to 1 HP; this counts as damage, causing the shell bell to restore Aron's on HP, potentially back to full.
    • The sandstorm finishes the opponent off at end of turn.
    • Possible to rinse and repeat for the remainder of battle.

Can anyone verify this? The obvious counter-tactics appear to be:

  • Pokemon immune to Sandstorm
  • Swipe moves
  • Nullifying either Aron's ability or item prior to attack
  • Whether or not Sturdy works multiple times per battle
