Hitmontop (Japanese: カポエラー Kapoerer) is a Fighting-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II.

It evolves from Tyrogue starting at level 20 when Tyrogue's Attack and Defense are equal. It is one of Tyrogue's final forms, the others being Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan.

Biology

Hitmontop is a vaguely humanoid Pokémon capable of spinning on its head. Its main body is spherical and mostly blue with a brown triangular patch on its chest. Hitmontop has short legs with white bands near the hands and feet. The feet are large, blue, and have a circular brown pad on the underside. It has a skinny brown retractable tail that ends with a blue sphere with a spike on it. Its head is round and brown with flat, curved extensions on either side and a single spike on top. The spike horn is made from the same substance that creates both its fur and claws. The horn is continuously growing through Hitmontop's lifetime. It has beady, black eyes, and spherical hands with no digits. Hitmontop is a male-only species with no female counterpart.

Hitmontop is very adept at fighting with dance-like kicks. This technique has an amazing combination of both offense and defense at the same time. Hitmontop moves more quickly by spinning on the spike on its head than it does by walking normally. Capable of spinning at high speeds, it may bore into the ground similar to a drill. While spinning, Hitmontop delivers smooth, graceful kicks. The centrifugal force of Hitmontop's spins boosts the destructive power of its attacks by a factor of 10. Anyone enchanted by its kicks will often get drilled hard by Hitmontop's kicks. Hitmontop often competes with Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan. As an urban species, it is often found in towns and cities.

Prior to Generation VII and in Generation IX, Hitmontop is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Triple Kick. Additionally, prior to Generation VII, Hitmontop and its evolutionary relative, Hitmonlee, were the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Rolling Kick.

Trivia

Unlike Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, none of Hitmontop's names in any language derive from famous people.
Hitmontop can learn the most priority moves of all Pokémon, with 14 increased priority moves and two decreased priority moves.
Though Hitmontop shares the Ability Steadfast with Tyrogue, a Steadfast Tyrogue cannot evolve into a Hitmontop with the same Ability, as Steadfast is Tyrogue's second Ability and Hitmontop's Hidden Ability.

Origin

Hitmontop appears to be based on a spinning top and a capoeirista. Its Attack and Defense stats needing to be equal in order for Tyrogue to evolve into Hitmontop is similar to how a top must be in equilibrium to remain upright. Its idle animation from Generation VI onward depicts it performing a ginga, a basic technique in capoeira. Hitmontop may also be based on a circus performer such as an acrobat or strongman, with its arms, legs, and tail being shaped similarly to barbells used by circus weightlifters.

Name origin

Hitmontop may be a combination of hit, monster, and top (a reference to spinning tops and how it fights, by spinning on its head). The name is also related to Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, both of which have been parallel evolutions to it since Generation II.

Kapoerer may be derived from capoeira, a Angolan-Brazilian martial art that often involves spinning one's legs in the air.

-'''Hitmontop''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カポエラー''' ''Kapoerer'') is a {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.
+'''Hitmontop''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カポエラー''' ''Kapoerer'') is a {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].
 It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Tyrogue}} starting at [[level]] 20 when Tyrogue's {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}} are equal. It is one of Tyrogue's [[Hitmons|final forms]], the others being {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}}.
 ==Biology==

It has short legs with white bands near the hands and feet. The feet are large, blue and have a circular brown pad on the underside. It has a skinny brown tail that ends with a blue sphere with a spike on it. Its head is round and brown with flat, curved extensions on either side and a single spike on top. It has a beady, black eyes and spherical hands with no digits. Hitmontop is a male-only species with no female counterpart.
+Hitmontop is a vaguely {{wp|humanoid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} capable of spinning on its head. Its main body is spherical and mostly blue with a brown triangular patch on its chest. Hitmontop has short legs with white bands near the hands and feet. The feet are large, blue, and have a circular brown pad on the underside. It has a skinny brown retractable tail that ends with a blue sphere with a spike on it. Its head is round and brown with flat, curved extensions on either side and a single spike on top. The spike horn is made from the same substance that creates both its fur and claws. The horn is continuously growing through Hitmontop's lifetime. It has beady, black eyes, and spherical hands with no digits. Hitmontop is a male-only species with no female counterpart.
-Hitmontop moves more quickly by spinning on the spike on its head than it does by walking normally. Capable of spinning at high speeds, it may bore into the ground similar to a drill. While spinning, Hitmontop delivers smooth, graceful kicks such as its [[signature move]], {{m|Triple Kick}}. As an {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban species}}, it is often found in towns and cities.
+Hitmontop is very adept at fighting with dance-like kicks. This technique has an amazing combination of both offense and defense at the same time.  Hitmontop moves more quickly by spinning on the spike on its head than it does by walking normally. Capable of spinning at high speeds, it may bore into the ground similar to a drill. While spinning, Hitmontop delivers smooth, graceful kicks. The centrifugal force of Hitmontop's spins boosts the destructive power of its attacks by a factor of 10. Anyone enchanted by its kicks will often get drilled hard by Hitmontop's kicks. Hitmontop often competes with {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}}. As an {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban species}}, it is often found in towns and cities.
-==In the anime==
+Prior to [[Generation VII]] and in [[Generation IX]], Hitmontop is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Triple Kick}}. Additionally, prior to Generation VII, Hitmontop and its evolutionary relative, Hitmonlee, were the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move {{m|Rolling Kick}}.

-* Though Hitmontop shares the [[Ability]] {{a|Steadfast}} with {{p|Tyrogue}}, a Hitmontop cannot have Steadfast after evolving a Tyrogue with the same Ability. This is due to the fact that Tyrogue's Steadfast is its second Ability, while Hitmontop's Steadfast is its Hidden Ability.
+* Though Hitmontop shares the [[Ability]] {{a|Steadfast}} with {{p|Tyrogue}}, a Steadfast Tyrogue cannot evolve into a Hitmontop with the same Ability, as Steadfast is Tyrogue's second Ability and Hitmontop's Hidden Ability.
 ===Origin===
-Hitmontop is based on a {{wp|top}} and a practitioner of {{wp|capoeira}}. The fact that Tyrogue's {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}} must be equal in order for it to evolve into Hitmontop is akin to how a top must be in equilibrium to remain upright.
+Hitmontop appears to be based on a {{wp|spinning top}} and a {{wp|capoeira|capoeirista}}. Its {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}} stats needing to be equal in order for Tyrogue to evolve into Hitmontop is similar to how a top must be in equilibrium to remain upright. Its idle animation from [[Generation VI]] onward depicts it performing a ''{{wp|List of capoeira techniques#Ginga|ginga}}'', a basic technique in capoeira. Hitmontop may also be based on a circus performer such as an {{wp|acrobatics|acrobat}} or {{wp|strongman}}, with its arms, legs, and tail being shaped similarly to barbells used by circus weightlifters.
