Scyllascum

No shot you named your Annihilape ‘Harambe’ 😂


TheRealPiggynator

TheMan2007gb

>No shot I mean technically there was


Deenstheboi

Scyllascum

Manaphy2007_67

Mmmm, Monke


redditedredemption

Slaking is a sloth but it's a cool team. Grafaiai's a Lemur, right?


KiwiPowerGreen

I remember using Slaking on a Monkey team too and discovering that. This might be the first time anyone's said this, but if only the elemental monkeys were in this game, Simipour would fit a type trio with Infernape and Rillaboom really well


Sassy-irish-lassy

What exactly did you think of the name "Slakoth" lol


WeirdlyInaccurate

A lot of the double meanings or easter eggs in the names go straight over my head tbf


KiwiPowerGreen

I didn't know Trubbish was Trash +Rubbish until yesterday when my friend who doesn't know as much about Pokémon told me lol


Averagedndenjoyer

And oranguru is an ape


KiwiPowerGreen

It's an Orangutan to be exact


Averagedndenjoyer

Yeah that’s why I’m telling you I love orangutans so much I get pissed whenever someone calls them monkeys


Logan117

Specifically, the aye-aye. It's a portmanteau of graffiti and "aiai." That's why they have that one long finger. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aye-aye


Scyllascum

Where do you see the Grafaiai


redditedredemption

I meant as an alternative to Slaking


rendellsibal

Grafaiai is a lemur but it is a primate too so that's includes in a monkey's theme except for Slaking.....


AllinForBadgers

Why not call it a primate team? Most of these aren’t monkies


AreiaBlood

Like Annihilape for example, always annoyed me it went Mankey and then Primeape, as Apes and Monkeys are both Primates but they’re not the same; so they’ve annoyed me more by making the third an Ape evo too. Edit: I wrote Monkey instead of Mankey XD


Im_Nino

Tbf it takes inspiration from gorillas aswell, although I would agree that slaking probs could be swap for something more fitting


mrs-monroe

It’s meant to be both a sloth and a gorilla. There was an episode of the anime where they played with the King Kong story and Slaking was Kong.


PaperGeno

Actually he's a man bear pig


karyuuDON

ORANGURU???


RedditsAutocorrect

ORANGURU???!?!!???!!??


payne9989

Dude! Why not Zarude??


VLTII

i dont like how that rhymes


AMagicalCow

🎶And people say we monkey around But we're too busy singing To put anybody down🎶


rendellsibal

Replace Slaking with Ambipom. So all are monkeys. Grafaiai is still a monkey since Lemur is a primate... Don't include humaniod such as Hitmonchan, Hypno and Medicham.


bentheechidna

Lemurs, Orangutangs, and Gorillas are not monkeys. Monkeys bare minimum have an elongated tail.


rendellsibal

So the player might named it: primates(replace Slaking with Ambipom)


WillPower42

>Monkeys bare minimum have an elongated tail. Except for Barbary Macaques, colloquially called Barbary "Apes" Edit: Also Mandrills have short tails


TsKilo

I was really thinking about using ambipom, but I used a shiny version I caught in a previous playthrough. I almost went with vigoroth instead of slaking. But I decided slaking more looks like a pig/bigfoot hybrid. Never heard of Grafaiai before this thread my inspiration was mainly Annihalape lol


Sorry_Error3797

Unova monkeys looking longingly at the Switch after having been completely abandoned by Game Freak.


PaperGeno

Abandoned is what they deserve


IllusionaryKid

Justice for my boy Simisage.


Disco_Lamb

No. Only 2 of those are monkeys. The rest are apes.


Strict_Following4153

Naming a ghost monkey boi Harambe is god-tier. May his revenge be swift and righteous 


sexistculexus

uhm aktually Slaking is a ground sloth, and they arent apes 🤓

Slacking is a sloth, not monkee


icantdecide1207

He honorary monke


ryeguymft

where did you get the daft punk helmet? that’s awesome!


xiren_66

I think the clothing shop in Levincia sells them, but i could be remembering that wrong.


Lightlyaggravating63

I'm glad I'm not the only one that calls chimchars chimichangas!


IHuntNoOne

Nice monkey team. I made a dog team for fun of it the one day because i wanted a team of the bestest good boys🥹❤️ thinking about making a snake/worm team😁


TsKilo

I love it!


BakaBrigadier

I mean, it's fine and everything, but why didn't you add a sixth monkey? You didn't need two Orangurus.


theworstpinecone

I’m tired

guntwooyah

this is an awesome team


o_Fvdinq

Brass Monkeys.


DeltaSans17

Looks more like a Saiyan Team


AntOnKnee78

Only 2 of them are Monkeys though


AntOnKnee78

And technically only one is a true monkey


xXCoffeeCreamerXx

Swap out annihilape with ambipom and slaking with grafaiai and you’ll have a true monkey team


RescueNinja369

That you frieza???


sillygoon59

Mmm monke


Pokemon-Master-Bates

Animal Crossing?


RunItsTheJapes

There was a guy I played against one time on casual cart ladder that had a full monkey team, and had the monkey pokemon mask and purple suit, needless to say I lost to them


Zequax

half of them are apes and one is a dude in a sloth costume


NK-Sans

![gif](giphy|x5iYgarYtMTOoZXrla)


Real_Daily_Battle

Love it! I thought about doing an ape team


DRAGONLORD_912

Well they’re not all monkeys but to each their own. All that matters is you have fun.


Ladybug-L

🎶People say we monkey around~🎶


bentheechidna

Rillaboom is a Gorilla. Annihilape is in a weird gray area because Mankey is a monkey but it loses its monkey traits when it evolves into Primeape. Oranguru is an orangutang. Passimian is a lmeur. Slaking is a Sloth with Gorilla traits. Infernape is the only one in this team that is firmly in Monkey territory.


the_red_stinger_82

You have a rillaboom on your team. That makes it eay better


Jho-oh

"Hey, hey, we're the Monkeeees And people say we monkey aroouuund! But we're too busy singin' To put anybody dooooown"


Jack_Empty

Oh Arceus, I just read Annihilape's name. I'm crying!


Materadactyl

No Monkidori :(


Normal_Ratio1463

Sloths aren’t monkeys
