[OVERVIEW]
With Hitmonlee's strong Attack and Unburden, it can function as a great Terrain sweeper. It has solid coverage and has passable bulk to set up with after using Electric or Grassy Seed. However, outside of Terrain teams, Hitmonlee is outclassed by other Fighting-types in the tier like Toxicroak or Passimian due to Hitmonlee being reliant on Unburden to make progress. While it has the ability to set up, Hitmonlee still finds itself unable to get past Pokemon like Talonflame and Aromatisse if it does not have the right coverage move.

[SET]
name: Terrain Sweeper
move 1: Bulk Up
move 2: Close Combat
move 3: Knock Off
move 4: Stone Edge / Poison Jab

Hitmonlee is exclusively used on Terrain teams, which, in tandem with Electric Seed or Grassy Seed, help it set up with Bulk Up more easily. Close Combat is Hitmonlee's best STAB move, as it does not run the same risk to miss as High Jump Kick does. Knock Off gives Hitmonlee coverage for Pokemon like Mesprit and Silvally-Ghost, cripples Pokemon like Weezing, and hits Flying-types if Hitmonlee is not running Stone Edge. Stone Edge allows Hitmonlee to remove Flying-types such as Talonflame, Charizard, and Scyther with ease. Alternatively, Poison Jab gives Hitmonlee coverage for Fairy-types like Aromatisse and Silvally-Fairy. Hitmonlee requires either Pincurchin or Thwackey as a partner and therefore pairs well with other Terrain sweepers like Thievul. On Electric Terrain teams, Jolteon can pressure Flying-types for Hitmonlee so it can run Poison Jab, and Nature Power Ribombee can lure Charizard if Electric Terrain is still active. For Grassy Terrain teams, Thwackey is able to wear down Pokemon like Weezing and Garbodor for Hitmonlee to break through late-game.

Hitmonlee with it's strong attack and Unburden is able to function as a great terrain sweeper. gp stuff but this first sentence is a mess queen It has solid coverage and has passable bulk to set up with after using Electric or Grassy Seed.

While it has the ability to set up, Hitmonlee still finds itself unable to get past pokemon like Talonflame and Aromatisse if it does not have the right coverage move.

Hitmonlee is exclusively used on Terrain teams and in tandem with Electric or Grassy Seed finds setting up a Bulk Up easier. Close Combat is Hitmonlee's best STAB move as it does not run the same risks as High Jump Kick failing. (pretty sure it's missing? idk) Knock Off gives Hitmonlee coverage for Pokemon like Mespirit and Silvally-Ghost. (if u're running pjab it's also ur best option against talon) It can cripple Pokemon like Weezing as well. Stone Edge allows Hitmonlee to remove Talonflame and Charizard without any chip. (not just them, but also flying-types in general like scyther) Alternatively, Poison Jab gives Hitmonlee coverage for Ribombee and Silvally-Fairy. Hitmonlee requires either Pinchurin or Thwackey as a partner and subsequently pairs well with other Terrain sweepers like Theivul. (it's thievul queen) On Electric Terrain, Jolteon can pressure Flying-types for Hitmonlee to fit Poison Jab. (nature power bee can also lure in talonflame) For Grassy Terrain teams, Thwackey is able to wear down Pokemon like Weezing and Garbodor for Hitmonlee to break through late game.

Though, outside of terrain teams, Hitmonlee is outclassed by the other Fighting-types in the tier like Toxicroak or Passimian. (minor, but you should probably offer a brief explanation as to why this is. after all, it does have some appealing traits that don't pertain to terrain teams.) While it has the ability to set up, Hitmonlee still finds itself unable to get past Pokemon like Talonflame and Aromatisse if it does not have the right coverage move.
