Hitmonlee (Japanese: サワムラー Sawamular) is a Fighting-type Pokémon.
It evolves from Tyrogue starting at level 20 when Tyrogue's Attack is higher than its Defense. It is one of Tyrogue's final forms, the others being Hitmonchan and Hitmontop.
Biology
Hitmonlee is a humanoid Pokémon with an ovoid body. Lacking a distinct neck and head, its upper torso has almond-shaped eyes with black rings around them and appears to lack a nose and mouth. Primarily brown, it has cream-colored, segmented arms and legs, with three fingers and three clawed toes respectively. The soles of its feet and its ankles have circular, yellow markings. It is an exclusively male species with no female counterpart.
Hitmonlee's legs freely contract and stretch similar to a coiled spring. This flexibility allows Hitmonlee to run with lengthy strides and gives it greater reach for its kicks. Its excellent sense of balance enables it to kick in succession from any position. After battling, it rubs down its legs to relax the tight muscles. Rare in the wild, it is primarily found in urban areas.

Trivia
- Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan are the only Pokémon that were not previously related through an evolution family, then later gained a shared pre-evolution.
- Hitmonlee has had more signature moves than any other Pokémon.
- Hitmonlee is the only Pokémon with a base speed of 87.
Origin
Hitmonlee may be a personification of taekwondo, a sport that focuses on kick attacks. Hitmonlee bears resemblance to Blemmyes due to his lack of an actual head. The overall shape of his body also resembles a human foot. He may also represent Tadashi Sawamura. When looking to the Japanese names of his Abilities: Flexible, Life-Risking and Acrobatics, Hitmonlee may also be based on an acrobat.
Name origin
Hitmonlee is a combination of hit, monster, and Lee (a reference to 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.
Sawamular is derived from the world's first kickboxer, Tadashi Sawamura.
