Movepool-wise, which is the best elemental monkey?
This is not opinion based. Just which monkey (simisage,simisear and simipour) can cover the most typings?

I will do this with full movepool and best 4 move coverage, separately. I will be excluding Hidden Power for the sake of “breaking” the comparison. Also, keep in mind the type coverage checker I am using counts different forms of a Pokémon as a different Pokémon. :P
Full Movepool:
Simisage-Normal, Ghost, Grass, Fairy, Fighting, Poison, Steel, Dark, Flying, Ground, and Rock (11 types)Type Coverage: 42 Neutral, 882 Super Effective.
Simipour-Normal, Ghost, Water, Fighting, Fairy, Poison, Ice, Steel, Dark, Rock, Flying, and Grass (12 types)Type Coverage: 77 Neutral, 847 Super Effective.
Simisear-Normal, Ghost, Fire, Poison, Fairy, Fighting, Steel, Dark, Grass, Rock, and Flying (11 Types)Type Coverage: 68 Neutral, 856 Super Effective.
Best Moveset coverage:
Simisage-Fighting, Rock, Grass, FlyingType Coverage: 4 Not Very Effective, 225 Neutral, 695 Super Effective.
Simipour-Flying, Rock, Ghost, FightingType Coverage: 243 Neutral, 681 Super Effective.
Simisear-Flying, Rock, Ghost, FightingType Coverage: 243 Neutral, 681 Super Effective.
Overall, Simisage has better coverage in both categories. :P

Hope I helped!
After looking at all 3, in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon I’d say that the simi trio are all quite good but simisear or simisage is probably best for egg moves and move tutor.
