Using Sturdy on such a bulky Pokemon may seem like a waste, but Choice Specs Archaludon makes beautiful use of it, making it a powerful wallbreaker that's extremely difficult to revenge kill! Draco Meteor is the star of the show, often OHKOing opposing Archaludon that aren't specially defensive as well as offensive Ursaluna-B. Flash Cannon is good coverage against Fairy-types like Mimikyu, while Thunderbolt is the weapon of choice against Corviknight and Primarina. While Dark Pulse's extra coverage may not seem impressive, it's important for hitting Gholdengo hard. Tera Stellar makes the surprise value of this set even fiercer, with even Assault Vest Ursaluna-B risking a OHKO from Draco Meteor! Tera Flying, on the other hand, is a good defensive alternative to ruin revenge kills from common foes like Garchomp and Ursaluna-B. This set is fairly independent in terms of support, but paralysis support from teammates like Dragonite and Annihilape can come in handy for preserving Sturdy.
