Pokedex Entries

Sun

Known for its extreme intelligence, this Pokémon will look down on inexperienced Trainers, so it’s best suited to veteran Trainers.

Moon

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.

Ultra Sun

It normally spends its time meditating in the treetops. It throws Poké Balls and gives other Pokémon orders as it pleases.

Ultra Moon

Oranguru don’t get along with each other, so they’re always engaging in battles of wits to decide which one is superior.
