In between the tunic and kilt is a small, black area. | Hitmonchan is a tan, {{wp|humanoid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that is exclusively male and has no female counterpart.

It can throw punches that are too quick to be seen with the naked eye. Its punches are said to be as fast as a bullet train. It starts attacking foes with combo punches from both sides before finishing with a single straight punch. A single straight punch by Hitmonchan can launch foes over 300 mph. By punching with a corkscrew motion, it is even capable of drilling through concrete. Even a light graze from its punches will result in a burn. However, Hitmonchan requires a break every three minutes while fighting. Despite the need for frequent breaks, it has an unwavering spirit and will never give up in a difficult situation. Usually found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}, it is rarely seen in the wild. It often competes with {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmontop}}. | ||
