->''Hitmonchan is not just a straight downgrade from Poliwrath. It's not just a straight downgrade from Machamp. It's not just a straight downgrade from Hitmonlee. It's not just a straight downgrade from Primeape. It's not just the worst fully evolved Pokemon in the game--it loses 1v1 to Nidoran♀. Hitmonchan is worse than most [=NFEs=]. It's the second worst type in the game--arguably the worst type in the game--doesn't have any good resistances, has terrible stats, has an awful movepool, it doesn't even learn fucking Hyper Beam, it literally cannot hit Gengar unless you use Seismic Toss... Its one benefit over other Fighting types is that it learns Agility, but what are you using Agility against? Anything with just like an un-STAB Ice Beam can hit you with it, and then you're going to kill yourself with Submission recoil, because Hitmonchan has the same Special bulk as fucking Pineco does. And that's assuming you even hit the Submission, because this is like the worst STAB move of all time. I don't think there's a single Pokemon in the game you can use Agility against and kill them, without dying to the Submission recoil or them just killing you with any move. I genuinely don't think that there is a single possible game state where Hitmonchan can help you win the game, let alone better than any other Pokemon would.''
