In the anime

Hitmonlee first appeared in EP029. Team Rocket stole him from a man named Giant in order to compete in the P1 Grand Prix. The Kicking Pokémon defeated Brock's Geodude, and Anthony's Hitmonchan (by cheating) and lost fair and square to Ash's Primeape. Hitmonlee appears in EP042 as one of the Yas Gym's Pokémon.

A Hitmonlee was used during the peliminaries of the Hoenn League by a trainer named Gilbert in AG126. Gilbert's Hitmonlee lost to Ash's Pikachu.

A Dojo Master used a Hitmonlee against his son, a cook. If the Dojo Master won, he would retire, and the cook would have to give up his shop for the Dojo. If the cook won, it would all stay the same. Ash, and May ended up taking the place of the two. As it was a draw, the cook and the Dojo Master decided to both work at the resturaunt while the cook's girlfriend took up ownership of the Dojo.

Trivia


Origin

It may be a personification of Taekwondo, a martial art that focuses on kicking and strengthening legs. Hitmonlee bares the resemblance of Blemmyes due to his lack of an actual head.

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." The name is also related to Hitmonchan and Hitmontop, both of which are parallel evolutions to it as of Generation II. Its Japanese name comes from the world's first kickboxer, さわむら ただし, Tadashi Sawamura.
