Alright, let’s talk about Hitmonchan. I’ve been messing around with this Pokemon for a bit, trying to figure out the best way to use him in battles.
First thing I did was look into his Fast Attacks. You’ve got three options: Bullet Punch, Rock Smash, and Counter. After a bunch of trial and error, and some help from online guides, I found that Counter is definitely the way to go. It just feels more effective overall.
Then I moved on to the Charged Attacks. This is where things get interesting. I spent a good amount of time experimenting with different combinations. After many battles and switching things around, I found that Power-Up Punch is an amazing move for Hitmonchan. It does decent damage and charges up pretty fast.
So, my go-to moveset became Counter as the Fast Attack and Power-Up Punch as the Charged Attack.
- Fast Attack: Counter
- Charged Attack: Power-Up Punch
I played a bunch of battles in the Great League, you know, the one with the 1500 CP limit. I realized that getting a Hitmonchan with low Attack IVs, like 0/15/15, is actually pretty good. It sounds weird, but it lets you squeeze in more overall stats under that CP limit. I managed to snag one with those IVs, and man, it made a difference.
With this setup, I started winning more matches. It wasn’t always easy, but I learned a lot about how to use Hitmonchan effectively. There were some tough counters out there, like Shadow Mewtwo and Mega Alakazam. Those guys gave me a hard time, but it was all part of the learning process.
Oh, and one more thing I learned is that Hitmonchan’s best moves are boosted by Cloudy weather. So, if you see clouds, it’s a good time to bring him out. It’s these little details that really make a difference in the long run. I kept track of all my battles, wins, and losses, and noticed a clear improvement when using this strategy in cloudy conditions. I even made a little chart to see the difference, and it was pretty cool to see the data back up what I was feeling in the battles.
Ultimately, I’m pretty happy with this setup for Hitmonchan. It’s been a fun journey of experimenting and learning. And hey, if you’ve got any tips or other movesets you like, I’m all ears. Let’s share and get better together!
It’s been a long road, but figuring out this moveset for Hitmonchan has been really rewarding. From testing different attacks to battling it out in various conditions, it’s all been worth it.
My favorite moveset combination is definitely Counter and Power-Up Punch.
It might take some time to get used to, but trust me, it’s a solid choice. Anyway, that’s my experience with Hitmonchan. Hope it helps some of you out there!
