Strategy Overview
While Oranguru's vast movepool, decent Special Attack, and bulk are appealing, it struggles to find its place in the tier. Its mediocre typing leaves it susceptible to Dark-types such as Skuntank and unable to reliably check Fighting-types like Hitmonchan. Its Special Attack, while decent, leaves it unable to do much prior setup, and its ability is rather situational. As an offensive Psychic-type Trick Room setter, it is outclassed by Beheeyem, which sports a better ability and Special Attack.
