Hitmonchan

Hitmonchan is a Fighting-type Pokémon and one of the possible evolutions of Tyrogue. When a Tyrogue is ready to evolve, it will take on this form if its defence stat is higher than its attack. Hitmonlee was documented as #107 in the National Pokédex since it was discovered before its pre-evolved form.

Pokédex Data
Hitmonchan is a humanoid Pokémon that is exclusively male and has no female counterpart. It has tan-coloured skin, five blunt protrusions on its head and natural padding covering its shoulders. It wears a light-purple tunic, kilt and boxing shoes as well as red boxing gloves on its hands.

As its hands would indicate, Hitmonchan specializes in punching. It is capable of throwing punches so fast that they cannot be seen with the naked eye, and so powerful that they can smash through solid concrete. When training or fighting, Hitmonchan can wear itself out very quickly, needing to take a break every three minutes. Despite this need for frequent breaks, its fighting spirit is unmatched and it will never give up no matter how difficult the situation.

Abilities

 * Mach Punch - Hitmonchan's signature move is a punch that goes so fast that it cannot be seen by the naked eye.
