Orthworm in battle

Orthworm has 70 HP, 85 Attack, 145 Defense and 65 Speed, which adds up to 365. That is the #161 highest total of the 1,025 Pokémon in the Pokédex. Its Speed beats 52% of the Pokédex, and its best stat is Defense at 145.

It has no damaging moves of its own type in its level-up or TM lists, so it leans on coverage moves.

Moves are ranked by power, then accuracy, from the level-up and TM lists above. That is a starting point, not a recommended moveset: check accuracy, PP and how the rest of your team covers other types before you commit.
