Primeape (Japanese: オコリザル Okorizaru) is a Fighting-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Mankey starting at level 28.

Biology

 
Primeape eating bananas

Primeape is a bipedal Pokémon with a round body covered in whitish, shaggy fur. There is usually has a stress mark on the left side of its forehead, and it has triangular ears with pink insides and a pink, snout-like nose. Its arms and legs are brown and have metal shackles on the wrists and ankles. This is probably indicative of a method of training with weights. The hands have no visible fingers, instead resembling mittens or boxing gloves, and the feet have two toes.

Primeape is easily angered; even the slightest glance of eye contact will make it furious. When Primeape is furious, its blood circulation is boosted. This makes its muscles stronger, but at the cost of some of its intelligence. It will chase anyone who upsets it and will not stop until it has caught its quarry. Even if it is awoken from sleep, it will groggily chase whatever woke it. Primeape can be found in vibrant forests or on mountains. It has shown some fondness for bananas.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

In Wartortle Wars A Primeape is first seen as a wild Pokémon that Saur defeated, becoming an Ivysaur afterwards. This catches the attention of the looming con artist, Green, starting a long-winded chain of events that led to Red first losing his money to her charm, and then his Badges.

In The Primeape Directive, a herd of Mankey, led by a frustrated Primeape, attacked Yellow and her temporary master, Blue, whose Porygon defeated it. Yellow then empathies the poor Pokémon and has it leave peacefully to the wild. It later appeared along with its herd of Mankey in The Legend after the industrial ruins in the Kanto mainland had been restored by the healing light.

In Quilava Quandry, a Primeape was used by the Day-Care Couple to help train Gold.

Much later, Chuck, Blue's own master, owns a Primeape, seen in Scrappy Skarmory working out with him and his Poliwrath. Together with Poliwrath, it used DynamicPunch to reveal Suicune's presence in the ocean off the Cianwood coast, but the Gym Leader was defeated in the end, even after being joined by a friend.

Another Primeape was one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in Ilex Forest in The Last Battle XIII.

In the Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All manga

In Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All, Shinji's signature Pokémon is a Primeape.

In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga

Blaine sent out Primeape during the battle portion of the Pokémon Quiz Battle in Fierce Competition at the Pokémon Quiz Battle!!.

Red caught a Primeape prior to Red VS Green?! and another one off-screen in The Pokémon Banana League (Part 1).

Chuck's only known Pokémon is a Primeape. It battles with all three of Red's Pokémon in Defeat Chuck Style Martial Arts!!.

In the Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire manga

Ruby has a Primeape at his house as seen in Something Happened!! Let's Go After Pikachu!!.

Pokédex entries

Generation I  
Red Always furious and tenacious to boot. It will not abandon chasing its quarry until it is caught.
Blue
Yellow It stops being angry only when nobody else is around. To view this moment is very difficult.
Stadium When enraged, it gives chase endlessly. Because it is impossible to tell what made it angry, there is no soothing it.
Generation II  
Gold If approached while asleep, it may awaken and angrily give chase in a groggy state of semi-sleep.
Silver It becomes wildly furious if it even senses someone looking at it. It chases anyone that meets its glare.
Crystal It will beat up anyone who makes it mad, even if it has to chase them until the end of the world.
Stadium 2 If approached while asleep, it may awaken and angrily give chase in a groggy state of semi-sleep.
Generation III  
Ruby When Primeape becomes furious, its blood circulation is boosted. In turn, its muscles are made even stronger. However, it also becomes much less intelligent at the same time.
Sapphire
Emerald When it becomes furious, its blood circulation becomes more robust, and its muscles are made stronger. But it also becomes much less intelligent.
FireRed It is always outrageously furious. If it gives chase, it will tenaciously track the target no matter how far.
LeafGreen Always furious and tenacious to boot. It will not abandon chasing its quarry until it catches up.

Trivia

Origin

Considering its pig-like nose, coloration, and tendency to fly into a rage if eye contact is made, Primeape has much in common with baboons.

Name origin

Primeape may be a combination of prime and ape, as well as being a pun on primate.

Okorizaru can be taken to be 怒り猿 (angry monkey).
