Research Notes - Oranguru
Pongo magister
Oranguru have sparked debate in the practice of Pokémon training itself. These great apes are close relatives of Darmanitan. However, their great intelligence and dexterity with tools make them seem far more humanlike in nature; the fact that they can reportedly wield Poké Balls and other human implements further cements this. Moderate anti-training advocates argue that Oranguru are too intellectual to be confined by trainers, while those in favor point to Pokémon like Alakazam and Slowking as precedents. Extreme training abolitionists, of course, call upon Oranguru as an example that Pokémon as a whole should not be trained at all.
Diet |
Fruits and Berries compose much of an Oranguru’s diet. However, they will also consumes leaves, shoots, and insects as well. Oranguru are known to consume herbs for flavoring as well as medicinal purposes.

Care |
Only veteran trainers should attempt to raise Oranguru. This is not because they are dangerous or difficult to care for; they are actually peaceful and can entirely care for themselves. Oranguru are very intelligent Pokémon, however, that will feel insulted and may refuse orders when commanded by trainers they believe are not as capable as themselves. They will only partner with those that have proven to be their equals or superiors in wits and strategy.

Caution |
Oranguru are peaceful Pokémon; some would even go as far as to say that they are pacifists in the wild. They seclude themselves high in the canopies in forests so that they will only be found by those that intentionally seek to find them. Jungle travelers may search for Oranguru when they need medicine or healing, but they should know that Oranguru will turn down those that disrespect it or the other Pokémon of the forest.

Behavior |
Oranguru are amicable Pokémon. They are comfortable around humans and will not give them much trouble. They tend to flee when they sense danger. (0 / -1 / -1)
