Which Pokemon is better...hitmonlee or hitmonchan?

I wouldnt say that either is better, they both have their strengths. Hitmonchan can learn things like Fire Punch so if you want a Pokemon that knows Moves outside it's type go with him. Hitmonlee is good too though. If like me you can't decide, try Iny Miny Miney Moe.

That's only in old versions. But I think Hitmonlee is better.

I would say that Hitmonlee is better but it's your choice.

Hitmonchan has higher defense & hitmonlee has higher attack

Pick either, they're both bad. I've forgotten the cave, but you can get a Tyrogue of a Karate bloke in there. The Tyrogue will evolve into Hitmontop.

Tatjeo, the cave is MT Mortar.

I think Hitmonlee is better because you can chain breed it mach punch.

i like both. hitmonlee can deal some good damage, hitmonchan has higher defense so he can last longer

they both have their ups and down but if you would want someone equal i would say go with hitmontop

Hitmonchan because it can learn a variety of moves (Fire/Ice/Thunder)Punch.
Hitmonlee is also good

I would go hitmonchan cauze of the different punches like ice punch ect then use the punch that the foe is bad against

Hitmontop because technician stab triple kick has 135 base power and he is more bulky than the other 2

Neither are better than the other. I have the strategy guides and it lists bullets for stats and they are the exact same. Hitmontop on the other hand is a little better than both of them. It would be easier to just breed a tyrouge and try to get him.

Hitmonlee or hitmonchan are good because you could make an egg to get hitmontop ,hitmonlee or hitmonchan only if your luccky though our have items that increase stas permantly

Hitmnlee is way better.

It´s true that hitmonchan can learn a wariety of punches (ice, fire, lightning), but the problem is that he has such low special attack stats that he will do very little damage with any of them. If you want to use fire/ice/electricity attacks you should use pokemons which have high special attack and that pretty much rules out any fighting type pokemn.

Hitmonlee on the other hand has very high attack stats AND uses only physical abillities which mean his attacks will deal far greater damage. He can't be used against as wide a variety of types as hitmonchan but on the other hand he´s actually good at what he´s doing.

Hitmonlee is better because it looks cooler and it has a high attack, hitmonchan has low attak and looks like a girl, hitmontop is strong to but it looks dumb

Breed any
If you have same defense and attack you most likely got a hitmontop but if it's attack is way higher then it's defense then you got a hitmonlee and to get hitmonchan it's attack has to be lower then it's defense.

I would say hitmonlee

I know this is a dead thread, but I don't care,

I would go with hitmonlee, hitmonchan is strong with his elemental punches and such, but due to his afwul Sp. Attack they deal little damage even when it is super effective. Hitmonlee has a high attack stat and all his moves are pyshical, so pure damage wise hitmonlee beats hitmonchan straight on. But hitmonchan is a bit tankier than hitmonlee so it depends what role he has to play in your team.

Hitmonlee is better, as while hitmonchan has type coverage, they can't learn and fighting attacks aside from counter and TM moves, and they suck. Also, in gen 1, thunder punch, ice punch, and fire punch are special, and hitmonchan's special stat is trash. And While hitmonlee doesn't get any other attacking moves with other types other than fighting and normal, his stats support his attacks and the stab boosts his fighting moves.

I think Hitmanchan is better because hitmanlee can't hit the Pokemon face

Neither are really imperative to add to your team, so it's just a matter of preference for looks/moves. If you were serious about wanting either in your team then Hitmonlee is probably better. Hitmonlee not only has STAB moves but they all scale off of it's powerful attack stat. Hitmonchan's elemental punch moves are pretty cool to fill out your moveset with, but they all scale off it's terrible Special stat (Gen I, II, and III games). As a personal preference, I also like the fact that Hitmonlee has both higher Attack and Speed, it was my favorite Fighting-type Pokemon (Machamp is so damn slow).

I recommend to choose Hitmonlee because it's moves are much better and powerful than Hitmonchan.
