He’s falling behind in terms of offensive stats, but his defense has come in clutch a few times. He, uh… Unfortunately finds himself on the field of battle frequently in “oh shit, I need a revive” moments, which don’t happen often but on the rare occasion he’s a very reliable tank.

Outside of that, not anything I would consider especially memorable. I just think his dumb face is cute.

I’ve had my Orthworm moment.

I went after the Quaking Earth titan. Orthworm was on my team essentially to leech EXP, being ~10 levels below the rest of my Pokémon at the time. Everyone else fainted, so in went the worm so I could toss a revive on one of my stronger 'mons, and… Wait, the titan did how little damage to this goofy fucker?

Orthworm basically single-handledly bodied that titan for me. He made it to the Elite Four, lol. Long live the Orthworm!
