'''Hitmonlee''' ({{ja|サワムラー|Sawamurā}}, ''Sawamular'') is a creature in the {{uv|Pokémon}} media franchise.


'''Hitmonlee''' (サワムラー, ''Sawamurā'', '''Sawamular''' in Japanese language versions) is a fictional creature in the ''[[Pokémon (universe)|Pokémon]]'' media franchise.

{{pkmn|Hitmonlee}} is a {{iw|bulbapedia|Fighting|type}}-type [[List of Pokémon|Pokémon]] introduced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}}, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #106 as the "Kicking Pokémon". Starting with {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation II}}, Hitmonlee evolves from {{pkmn|Tyrogue}} at level 20 if its attack is greater than its defense. It is a male-only species known for its long, spring-esque legs that allows it to kick rapidly from a distance. In the original games, it was along with {{pkmn|Hitmonchan}}, one of the possible prizes for defeating the {{iw|bulbapedia|Karate Master}} in [[Saffron City]]'s {{iw|bulbapedia|Fighting Dojo}}.


==Creature description==
{{iw|bulbapedia|Jump Kick|move}} is a Fighting-type move with 100 (70 in Generation I) base power and 95% accuracy. If it misses, the user takes {{iw|bulbapedia|recoil}} damage equal to half of its maximum HP (1 HP in Generation I). Hitmonlee can learn it in every game, and before {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation IV}} it was the only Pokémon to be able to do so.
Hitmonlee is a humanoid Pokémon with two prominent legs. The Pokédex explains that it is also called the Kicking Master. It has legs that freely contract and strech to up to double their length, and uses the springlike legs to bowl over foes with devastating kicks, First-time foes are startled by its extensible reach when it hits the distant foe with a rising kick. It can execute every known kick and can kick in succession from any position thanks to an awesome sense of balance. When kicking, the sole of its foot turns as hard as a diamond on impact to destroy its target. After battle, it rubs down its legs and loosens the muscles to overcome fatugue. When in a hurry outside a battle, its legs lengthen progressively, allowing it to run smoothly with extra long, loping strides.


It is the kicking equivalent to the punching Pokémon, Hitmonchan, and the spinning Pokémon, Hitmontop, and all three share the same evolutionary predecessor: the young, small Tyrogue.

Hitmonlee appears as a Pokémon that comes out of a Pokéball in SSB. Hitmonlee uses Hi Jump Kick as its attack. Hitmonlee will remain motionless for a full second, then it will extend its leg and jump in the air at a randomly decided opponent target to inflict heavy damage and knockback if it connects. Its attack can't harm the summoner.

Hitmonlee can be summoned by a [[Poké Ball]]. It attacks with Jump Kick: upon appearing Hitmonlee remains motionless for several frames, then it extends its leg and jumps in the air in a long arc towards a random opponent. If it connects it inflicts heavy damage and knockback. Hitmonlee's attack cannot harm the summoner.


Hitmonlee's battle cry when released was the source of much debate, as it did not appear to say its name like other Pokemon.  Some claim his cry sounds more like Psyduck.
Its voice clips in the Japanese and English versions are from the ''Pokémon'' episode ''The Punchy Pokémon''. They were only from the episode's Japanese version; the scene they were from was dubbed over in the episode's English dub.

Hitmonlee is considered by many to have been replaced by [[Scizor]] in Melee. However, Hitmonlee only kicks once, while Scizor strikes multiple times.

Hitmonlee (サワムラー, Sawamular) is a creature in the Pokémon media franchise.

Origin[edit]

Hitmonlee's official artwork from Pokémon Red and Blue.

Hitmonlee is a Fighting-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #106 as the "Kicking Pokémon". Starting with Generation II, Hitmonlee evolves from Tyrogue at level 20 if its attack is greater than its defense. It is a male-only species known for its long, spring-esque legs that allows it to kick rapidly from a distance. In the original games, it was along with Hitmonchan, one of the possible prizes for defeating the Karate Master in Saffron City's Fighting Dojo.

Jump Kick is a Fighting-type move with 100 (70 in Generation I) base power and 95% accuracy. If it misses, the user takes recoil damage equal to half of its maximum HP (1 HP in Generation I). Hitmonlee can learn it in every game, and before Generation IV it was the only Pokémon to be able to do so.

In Super Smash Bros.[edit]

As a Poké Ball Pokémon[edit]
