Kiyo's Hitmonlee - Pokemon: Origins (2013)

Known as the Kicking Pokemon, Kiyo's Hitmonlee was part of the demonstration team at the Saffron City Karate Dojo, helping to demonstrate various kicks to pupils.

They were also one of Kiyo's best (and only) Pokemon, being used when the Karate Master was seeking to accept challenges from students wishing to train in Pokemon battles, rather than Martial Arts.


"File Three: Giovanni"

Wishing to toughen his Pokemon up, Red challenged Kiyo to a Pokemon battle, resulting in Hitmonlee being chosen as an opponent to the young trainer.

After a long fight, both Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan were unable to battle, forcing Kiyo to concede defeat.

They were put up as a potential reward for the trainer, leaving their owner and friend heartbroken as he made his choice.

Red took them as his reward, handing ownership of Hitmonlee over to him.
