Also helps that Steel-types will never switch in to Infernape for fear of dual STAB. I think the only Ape counter that isn't crippled is Tentacruel, so EQ is possibly another move to put in OO, as Ape can be a pretty good Tentacruel lure. That being said, be sure to emphasize that you should only use these moves if your team doesn't miss Infernape having another coverage move, so strictly OO.
Thanks for suggestion Cherub, I have mentioned both Toxic and EQ in the OO. also wouldn't Toxic help break down stall teams as well?

Thanks Pocket, I believe Scizor and Tyranitar should get the biggest mention as a Trapper to these threats to Infernape.
