Damage multipliers this Pokemon takes from each attacking type (based on the current form).
Damage multipliers of this Pokemon's same-type (STAB) moves against each defending type.
High-firepower meta Pokémon that hit it super-effectively by type (estimated, not battle data)
Based on real ladder matchup statistics and expert community assessments (data snapshot 2026-08)
Single-use rate sits at 0.04%, ranked 211st—effectively absent from the ladder. Oranguru's stat spread is built for support, not offense: 60 Speed means it almost always moves last, and while the 110 Special Defense pairs with a Sassy spread to wall most special attackers, the 80 Defense leaves it open to physical hits. Psychic is blocked completely by Ghost, and Dark and Bug both hit it for double damage, severely limiting its offensive coverage.
Playstyle:In singles, Oranguru functions as a Trick Room support controller. The Sassy spread minimizes Speed and maximizes Special Defense, letting it survive a non-STAB special hit, then use Instruct to repeat an ally's attack. The 96.7% Sitrus Berry usage reinforces this loop—it stays alive through two or three attacks under Trick Room, enough turns to chain Instruct outputs with its partner.
Doubles usage hits 0.44%, ranked 100th—not a top pick, but far more common than singles. Instruct at 24.9% and Trick Room at 24.4% sit at the top of the moveset, showing Oranguru has essentially one path: set the room, then copy a partner's powerful attack. Sitrus Berry drops from 96.7% in singles to 8.6% in doubles, replaced by Mental Herb at 58.8% and Colbur Berry at 23.2%—doubles opponents constantly Taunt-lock it out of its key moves, so a berry that restores HP pales against one that clears status.
Playstyle:In doubles, Oranguru runs a room-based support line: Instruct copies a Fire- or Ground-type partner's attack to stack high-BP hits back-to-back. The 58.8% Mental Herb rate signals that Taunt is the biggest threat—once Instruct or Trick Room gets locked out, the whole structure collapses. Colbur Berry at 23.2% answers Dark-types, which hit Oranguru for double damage; the berry lets it survive one Dark hit and keep the engine going.
