Flavor

Flavor Text

: Known for its extreme intelligence, this Pokémon will look down on inexperienced Trainers, so it’s best suited to veteran Trainers.
: Deep in the jungle, high in the lofty canopy, this Pokémon abides. On rare occasions, it shows up at the beach to match wits with Slowking.
: It normally spends its time meditating in the treetops. It throws Poké Balls and gives other Pokémon orders as it pleases.
: Oranguru don’t get along with each other, so they’re always engaging in battles of wits to decide which one is superior.
