What Neighborhood Day transfer does Mankey’s evolution be taught?
Should you evolve Mankey or Primape into Primeape or Annihilape from 2 p.m. till 10 p.m. in your native time, it can be taught the charged transfer Rage Fist.
Primeape has an uncommon evolution requirement to evolve into Annihilape often.

PvP-focused web sites like PvPoke are predicting that Rage Fist will assist out Annihilape and Primeape re-enter the meta after the nerfs that got here in with the PvP shake-up earlier within the season.
By way of PvE content material (raids and gymnasiums), Annihilape sits within the high 20 of ghost-type attackers while you eliminate shadow Pokémon and Megas, however that doesn’t imply a lot. It’s outclassed by many extra generally discovered Pokémon: Gengar and Chandelure, in addition to a plethora of Legendary Pokémon, like Lunala, Origin Forme Giratina, Darkrai, Mewtwo — you get the image. You may completely construct and put money into an Annihilape in order for you, however because it has no ghost-type quick transfer obtainable, Rage Fist will probably not push it up the ladder in comparison with these long-standing meta picks.
