PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

• Air Slash is objectively better than Pound on offense.
• Hurricane provides maximum damage output, but it's only slightly ahead of Aerial Ace, which is far easier to make use of and will tend to have stronger average performance.
• Air Cutter is the weakest move option.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

• Pound has off-type advantage with Oricorio's Charged Moves, but it's resisted by most of the same types as Air Slash, so either one is fine.
• Aerial Ace is the best defensive option, Air Cutter is a slightly worse version.
• Oricorio will probably drop before it can use Huricane.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Air Slash + Aerial Ace and Hurricane

Air Slash provides a balance of damage output and energy generation, and also benefits from STAB. Pound is terrible and can't be Super Effective. 

Oricorio suffers from the lack of any coverage option. Aerial Ace is the best option due to its lesser energy cost, enabling it to be used more often to pressure shields. Air Cutter deals almost the same damage but costs more energy, making it a downgrade. Hurricane is not required, but it has a niche when shields are down, assuming Oricorio survives long enough to use it. 

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 1 / 5

The Baile style of Oricorio sports a Fire subtyping, giving it a resistance against Charm damage. Unfortunately without any coverage options or utility this Pokemon has very poor performance in the meta. It's not very fast or bulky either, with a double weakness to Rock-type attacks. 

Ultra League: 1 / 5

Oricorio can only expect wins against Pokemon weak to Flying-type attacks, which to its credit, do exist. Unfortunately it's not good against the overall meta, so save your Stardust. 

Master League: 0 / 5

Baile Oricorio prefers fiery spice challenges, rather than some lame PvP battles.
