Hitmonlee (Japanese: サワムラー Sawamular, German: Kicklee, French: Kicklee) is a Fighting-type Pokémon.

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Emerald

Its legs freely stretch and contract. Using these springlike limbs, it bowls over foes with devastating kicks. After battle, it rubs down its tired legs.

Name origin

Hitmonlee's name can be broken down into hit, monster and Lee - as in Bruce Lee; perhaps meaning "the monster that hits like Bruce Lee." Its Japanese name comes from the world's first kickboxer, さわむら ただし, Tadashi Sawamura.

It may be a personification of Taekwondo, a martial art that focuses on kicking and strengthening legs.
