Primeape (Japanese name: オコリザル Okorizaru) is a fighting type Pokémon that was introduced during generation I. It evolved from Mankey at level 28. Oddly enough, Primate was able to learn via TM Iron Tail despite not having a tail. Like it's prevolution, Primate is easily infuriated.

[edit] Competitive Battling

Primeape found itself relegated to the NeverUsed (NU) Tier of Competitive Battling in Generation IV due to its relative frailty. In Generation V, Primeape's Vital Spirit ability makes it a great switch-in to dangerous setup sweepers like Lilligant who like to put opponents to sleep via Sleep Powder. Primeape's respectable Attack and good Speed aid it offensively and it has found a solid home in the RarelyUsed (RU) Tier.
