Sturdy is an ability. The One-Hit Knock-Out moves Fissure, Guillotine, Horn Drill and Sheer Cold will not work against these Pokémon.
In Generation V, a Pokémon with Sturdy will not die in one hit. Instead, the Pokemon always has one HP left if the attack is one hit kill for that Pokemon, similar to the Focus Sash.
