Mankey analysis
Another fairly simple Fighting type that only learns Fighting and Normal moves through level up, with quite a long wait between Karate Chop and Cross Chop. Primeape is still good, but it's not as good as it was last gen, due to the critical hit chance change. The lack of easy Rock Slide accessibility does hurt it, but it does gain Iron Tail, as well as the elemental punches, so yaaaay? It's not really all that amazing, it hits hard and fast with some good STAB and some good Normal moves, either Strength or Thrash. But it is pretty frail and can't use all of its cool special moves, so make of it what you will. As you saw in the last LP, this guy can do some damage under the right circumstances.
