Primeape can really only work Banded or Scarfed
Stab CC will hurt
U-turn for obvious reasons
Elemental Punches for type coverage
Earthquake or Rock Slide for obvious reasons

Primeape (M) @ (No Item)
- Seismic Toss
- Rock Slide
- Mega Punch
- Take Down

The only way this thing is even usable in Gen 1. Even then, he's not the best choice in a Psychic dominated metagame. The set is pretty much self-explanatory, since it uses Primeape's only viable moves.

Rampage
Primeape (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Anger Point
EVs: 4 HP/ 252 Atk/ 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Thunderpunch
- Earthquake/ U-turn
- Stone Edge

(I don't think Primeape learns all the elemental punches @ Allan)

Simple sweeper Band over Scarf because of max speed and a jolly nature to push that even further, Close Combat main move because of stab, stone edge highly recommended because of flying critters. Thunderpunch, Earthquake or U-turn for coverage.

^gee, that doesn't pair striking resemblance to Allan's set at all


[Crit Moar Pl0x]
[Primeape] (M/F) @ [Salac Berry]
Trait: [Anger Point]
EVs: [252 Atk/4 Hp/252 Speed]
[Nature] Adamant/Jolly
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge/Rock Slide
- Substitute
- U-Turn/ThunderPunch

[Anger Point is a nifty ability. A free Belly Drum just from being critted is a great concept, though hard to use practically. Sub DOES work with Anger Point, thus is the aim of this set. Ideally, you will be against a Pokemon that cannot OHKO your Sub, providing maximum chances of being critted. Close Combat is a no brainer, your main offense. Its complement will be a rock move, you can choose more accuracy or power. Finally, U-Turn lets you get out while scouting before you want to commit to your combination. However, ThunderPunch is a decent coverage and no-miss move. Note that U-Turn is also useful for bluffing choice items. Finally, I'll come to the topic of natures. Salac Berry will allow you to become quite fast at 25%, hopefully when you'll have your +6. However, Jolly is better for allowing you to Sub Down prior to that, and beat out some scarfers with it. Adamant on the other hand lets you hit much harder even if you don't pull it off. Simply put, Jolly is better if your plan is to make it happen, while Adamant is better backup for if you fail, and Adamant Salac Berry can be surprisingly powerful late game cleanup.]
