High Jump Kick (Japanese: とびひざげり Jumping Knee Kick), spelled Hi Jump Kick prior to Pokémon X and Y, is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation III, it was one of the signature moves of Hitmonlee.

Effect

Generation I

Hi Jump Kick does damage with a base power of 85. If it misses, the user will take crash damage of 1 HP. If used against a Ghost-type, it will always count as a miss.

In this generation only, if the user of Hi Jump Kick attacks first and faints itself due to crash damage, the target will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round.

In Stadium, the crash damage is corrected to 1/8 of the potential damage.

Generations II and III

The crash damage is increased from 1 HP to half of the damage it would've dealt if it had hit. The user will receive crash damage if Hi Jump Kick is prevented by Protect or Detect. The user does not receive crash damage due to type immunity, it only displays the type immunity message.

In Stadium 2, the crash damage is adjusted to 1/8 of the potential damage.

Hi Jump Kick can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining extra six appeal points if move Mind Reader was used in the prior turn.

Generation IV

Hi Jump Kick's base power is increased from from 85 to 100. It cannot be used if Gravity is in effect. It now crashes due to type immunity.

Generation V onwards

High Jump Kick's base power is increased from 100 to 130, and its PP is reduced from 20 to 10. The crash damage is now equal to half of the user's max HP, rounded down.

If High Jump Kick is blocked by Mat Block, the user will receive the standard crash damage.
