Lacking a distinct neck and head, its upper torso has almond-shaped eyes with black space around them, and appears to lack a nose and mouth. Primarily brown, it has cream-colored, segmented arms and legs. Each hand has three fingers and each foot has three clawed toes. The soles of its feet and its ankles have circular, yellow pads. Hitmonlee is an exclusively male species with no female counterpart.

Hitmonlee's legs freely contract and stretch similar to a coiled spring (and {{DL|Bruno|Pokémon Adventures|one particular Hitmonlee}} has the ability to do this with its arms as well). 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. Hitmonlee's kicking strength is incredibly powerful owing to its diamond-like soles. It has sometimes been nicknamed the "Kick Master". After battling, it rubs down its legs to relax the tight muscles. Rare in the wild, it is primarily found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}.
Hitmonlee's legs freely contract and stretch similar to a coiled spring (and {{DL|Bruno|Pokémon Adventures|one particular Hitmonlee}} can do this with its arms as well). The source of its power comes from the ligaments in its legs that Hitomlee can fully control. This flexibility allows Hitmonlee to run with lengthy strides, giving it greater reach for its kicks. Its excellent sense of balance enables it to kick in succession from any position. Hitmonlee's kicking strength is incredibly powerful owing to its diamond-like soles. Right before kicking an opponent, Hitomlee will harden the muscles on the sole of its foot, allowing it to maximize the full power of its kick. It has sometimes been nicknamed the "Kick Master". After battling, it rubs down its legs to relax the tight muscles. Rarely found in the wild, it is primarily found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}. It has been seen competing with either {{p|Hitmonchan}}, or {{p|Hitmontop}}.
