Orthworm

Orthworm holds a 0.99% singles usage rate at rank 81, functioning as a physically defensive pivot. Its 145 Defense lets it wall most physical attackers, but 65 Speed and 55 Special Defense mean it acts second in drawn-out exchanges and takes heavy chip from Fire and Ground double weaknesses. Earth Eater is locked in at 100%, granting a free recovery pivot against Ground moves.

Playstyle：The core moveset is Shed Tail at 24%, Heavy Slam at 18.7%, and Body Press at 17.5%, with Stealth Rock at 10.9% or Iron Defense at 10.2% chosen based on team needs. Shed Tail into a setup sweeper is its signature play; Body Press converts the 145 Defense into offense; Heavy Slam rounds the coverage and gives STAB. Sitrus Berry at 93.6% provides the steady recovery needed to survive long enough to pass the baton. Spreads are Impish 31/0/25 and 32/2/32, balanced HP and Defense with 10–11 Special Defense to cushion Fire and Fighting pivots.

Doubles usage is a slim 0.15% at rank 160, still a physically bulky pivot with Earth Eater locked at 100%. Its role is absorbing Ground moves aimed at teammates while staying healthy thanks to Sitrus Berry at 85%.

Playstyle：Doubles revolves around Body Press at 24.8%, Shed Tail at 22.3%, and Heavy Slam at 21.8%, with Helping Hand 9.7%, Iron Defense 7.9%, and Protect 7.5% added based on needs. Body Press punishes physically defensive targets using its 145 Defense, Shed Tail hands a Substitute to a sweeper, and Heavy Slam covers Fairy-types. Relaxed 31/0/5/0/30 at 37.1% pours almost everything into Special Defense, while Impish 32/0/5/0/29 at 12% is the physical-leaning line.
