Catatante 'Orange Kiss'
After many weeks of trying to dry out & seeing pseoudobulb lower bottom darken checked medium (all spagh) and saw very moist still, so decided to repot in mostly all bark, afraid to water now?

I am not familiar with this type. My gut would say water sparingly but I could be dead wrong. I agree, it doesn't look good. When the others chime in, we'll both learn something. Nice repotting job

It looks like some kind of brown rot. Unfortunately, the plant seems to only have one mature growth (now rotting) and some small growths that are not mature enough to survive on their own. A lot of Oncidium hybrids seem to be sold this way nowadays.
You can try keeping it on the dry side, see if the rot stops or halts long enough for the immature growth to mature an grow roots, allowing it to be successfully removed.

Mine is a large plant. I twisted the old rotted pbulb off, ( too root bound to cut it out) watered around the edges carefully and sprayed with Phyton 20. Do you have suggestions? Watch it, pitch it? Thoughts? Keep spraying? Lots of beautiful roots...
