      Only Generation 5 buffed it. Acting like a Focus Sash, while blocking one hit moves.
      I did a nuzlocke of Pokemon Black 2, and oh my god, Sturdy was my favorite Pokemon ability now. This luck runs out when I go battle Paul, however.
      I lost the strongest Pokemon, Magneto.
      I found Magneto as a Magnemite (Virbank Complex)
      As a Magneton when it evolved during the leveling
      As a Magnezone when it evolved in the Chargestone Cave.
      It was basically my favorite Pokemon, and simply seeing Magnezone die makes it worse.

      Amphy (Ampharos): It's going to be okay, Sunny...

      Kirby (Samurott): Mina died during a trainer battle, Nights died during the leveling session, Phoebe died from a Battle Girl, and now poor Magneto... When will the suffering end for Sunny...
      Jitterbug (Leavanny): Sunny... Please use the Trapinch that you're going to use.
      Sunny (Rosa): Fine. I'll use Trapinch.
      Her Pokemon: Yay!
      Sunny (Rosa): I'll have to make sure no more Pokemon die.

    The guy who had been feeding him bad info in this run? He didn't realize that Sturdy was a terrible Ability before they buffed it somewhere later on. It only blocked Moves that always deal a 1 hit ko if it hits. It's only till later (Gen 5 I think?) when Sturdy gives you effectively a free Focus Sash at full HP like how Focus Sash works. Dropping the Pokemon who endured the otherwise fatal hit, down to 1 HP.

      Why use dig? Arcanine had bite! You know, a physical dark type move that's super effective against psychic types which Alakazam is and since it's physical and Alakazam's physical defense is hot garbage!
      I completely agree that he shouldn't have used flamethrower, and yes bite has slightly list power than dig but it has the bonus of being super effective.

If you think he was desensitized fast, I lost all my Pokemon I had except Magnemite by the end of the second gym (white 2 btw), and frankly even now, having lost the whole run to the 7th gym's cheating haxorus and having nearly reached the final trial in my current Pokemon Sun Nuzlocke, I still don't think any loss has hit me as hard as those first couple in White 2. Not even Woody the trumbeak, who is the only reason I didn't perish to Hala.
