HITMONLEE VS HITMONCHAN
Two fighting champions, pitted together in a fight. Who would win?

PlatinumDude January 23rd, 2012 6:38 PM

I like both, but I'm going with Hitmonlee because it hits harder and faster than Hitmonchan.

Mercurybro January 23rd, 2012 7:04 PM

I chose Hitmonchan because it has shiny red gloves, clothes, Dutch clogs, and a belt.

What does Hitmonlee have? Nothing except crazy looking eyes, legs that look like the bark off palm trees, and a yellow ball on its ankle. Obviously during a fighting contest, Hitmonchan won against Hitmonlee and took everything he owned, right down to the clothes on his back. Hitmonlee then had to resort to mind-numbing slavery to pay off his debts, which explains the crazy eyes and the yellow ball on his ankle. I don't know what happened to his legs, though, and I'd prefer not to.

Hitmonlee all the way, I like that he's so simplistic cept he has these crazy eyes and legs which makes it very balanced, because simplicity is key in Pokémon designs imo. Also he's just better overall, Hitmonchan is weird.

Overlord Drakow January 24th, 2012 12:37 PM

Hitmonlee for me. He suits me more than Hitmonchan as far as my own fighting style is concerned XD. I've always preferred kicks over punches.

Renthewarrior January 24th, 2012 1:07 PM

Well Hitmonchan definitely has better attacks. Thunderpunch, Firepunch and Icepunch are really good moves, especially for Hitmonchan.
For that reason my answer is Hitmonchan.

Hahaha this is amazing.

But yeah Hitmonchan for me. Hitmonlee just doesn't look appealing in the least. Hitmonchan looks like a fighter, Hitmonlee looks like...a thumb with limbs.

Hitmonchan for its appearance and the three punches. <3

Palladium January 25th, 2012 5:02 AM

Actually, I'd rather have Hitmontop but I digress
Anyways, I'd rather have Hitmonchan, because although he looks ridiculous with that pink skirt and I like the concept of kicking better, he is better gamewise
You should have made a poll, y'know

It used to be Hitmonchan but I currently favour Hitmonlee.

Kikaito plush January 25th, 2012 5:43 AM

Hitmontop I always prefered to the Hitmons but Hitmonlee is better that Hitmonchan.

GokuRikaku January 25th, 2012 10:32 AM

My opinion on design is with Hitmonchan. Kicking is alright an all, but feels good to get a good punch on your foe.

BeliVuk January 26th, 2012 9:40 AM

Jackie Chan versus Bruce Lee? Hmmm, I'll have to go with Lee.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ January 26th, 2012 11:40 AM

Hitmonlee because it doesn't look as weird and has higher attack power.

Though Hitmonchan has become infinitely more useful since the 4th gen physical/special split. But it still looks weird... short skirts and boxing gloves do not mix...

Mentalii January 28th, 2012 5:33 AM

Hitmonlee. I don't really know why, but I've always prefered it, since I was younger. Maybe because I think that kicks are more painful than punches :pink_tongue:
But I love Hitmonchan too. Besides I've always wondered if its gloves were a part of its body, or if it has hands inside them...

Seki January 28th, 2012 6:06 AM

Chan, Hitmonchan. Enough said.

vaporeon7 January 30th, 2012 3:54 AM

I voted for Hitmonlee because I have always preferred kicking over punching like Drakow. I also like Hi-Jump Kick, even though when I last tried to do it, I missed and crashed.

-Jared- January 30th, 2012 11:17 AM

Hitmonlee, definitely. While Physical/Special split made Hitmonchan SO much more useful, I think Hitmonlees overall usefulness, spanning over the five generations, makes him more ideal, to me.

smurf January 30th, 2012 11:22 AM

I beileve hitmonlee would be the best choice

BlazeRage February 4th, 2012 3:47 AM

Hitmonchan!
Love him,Fast hands,Strong motha f***a :)
Better arsenal (moves)
Thunderpunch,Dynamicpunch,Dizzypunch
3 very dominating moves

psyanic February 4th, 2012 10:00 PM

Hitmonlee! It uses its legs and everyone knows leg muscles are stronger than arm muscles.

bobandbill February 4th, 2012 11:28 PM

I always preferred Hitmonchan's moveset just because of all the elemental punches. Design-wise though Hitmontop is the more interesting for myself.

Kirbychu February 5th, 2012 12:10 AM

As much as I like Jackie Chan, I prefer my Pokemon without clothes. Hitmonlee wins by aesthetics.

Mercurybro February 5th, 2012 12:51 AM

Alright, well you guys obviously didn't understand exactly who would win in a bout between Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee, so I depicted an actual fight using my magnificent artistic skills.

Here's what happened. It all ended so fast, with a simple Mach Punch to the upper stomach.

Poor Hitmonlee didn't have a chance. At least this time he played it smart and bet on his contender winning instead of himself. Now he won't have to take up a weekend midnight shift at the poop farms to repay his debts.

Satoshi Ookami February 5th, 2012 1:05 AM

I always liked Hitmonchan more.
Design-wise and also moveset-wise becuase elemental punches are really awesome moves.
I never actually used anyone beside using Hitmonlee briefly in XD thanks to his Shadow Half.
