| 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. | |

Trivia
- While not an evolution of Passimian, it is considered a counterpart of it, as it is a version exclusive like Passimian as well as being of two types that one (Normal) weak to Passimian and the other (Psychic) strong against it.
- Oranguru is one of three Pokemon that are Normal/Psychic type. The other two are Girafarig and Meloetta (in Aria Forme).
- Oranguru drew comparisons to Harambe upon its debut, as previously Harambe (a gorilla shot and killed at a zoo) was petitioned by fans to be commemorated as a Pokemon. However, the official Pokemon Company has denied this.
Origin
- Oranguru is based on an orangutan.
- It is also loosely based on Uesugi Kenshin and Zhuge Liang.
Etymology
- Oranguru is a combination of the words Orangutan (a species of primates) and Guru (a teacher that is wise and influential).
- Its Japanese name Yareutan is a combination of Yare (means “do it”) and Orangutan. If speaks “yareyare”, it means “whew/good grief”.
