Using Pokemon that fit into these three categories will give you a significant advantage over Orthworm. Keep in mind that Orthworm likes to use an ability called “Earth Eater,” which will make it immune to all ground-type attacks. Even though it is weak against ground initially, it usually fixes that with Earth Eater ability. With that said, Fire and Fighting will be your best bet against Orthworm.
