Makuhita (Japanese:マクノシタMakunoshita) is aFighting-typePokémon introduced inGeneration III.

Itevolves intoHariyama starting atlevel 24.

Biology

Makuhita is a bipedal humanoidPokémon with a bulky build. Most of its body is yellow, but it has a black marking on its chest that extends around its neck. Its round hands resemble black boxing gloves, but its feet are yellow with two visible toes. On its cheeks are red, ring-shaped markings, and it has slit-like eyes. On top of its head is a knot, which causes it to resemble a punching bag.

Makuhita is very gutsy and never gives up, no matter how many times it is knocked down. Energy is built into its body each time it rises back up. Broken trees often surround its nest, because it trains by slapping and slamming into them. It is known to mistakeExeggutor for a tree, and often gets flung away as a result. This Pokémon eats lots of food and gets plenty of sleep. Its rigorous training and lifestyle give it a sturdy body able to withstand any attack. It is found living and training inmountainous areas. Although initially brought from another region toAlola, Makuhita found in Alola are more famous than its region's counterparts.

Makuhita and its evolved form,Hariyama, are theonly known Pokémon capable of learning the moveSmelling Salts by leveling up. Prior toGeneration V,Arm Thrust was also one of its signature moves.

Trivia

Origin

Makuhita appears to be based on asumo wrestler, also called arikishi orsumōtori. It also resembles apunching bag due to its plump body and topknot.

The black marking around its neck resembles a babybib, indicating its inexperience as an unevolved Pokémon and that sumo wrestlers need to follow a multi-calorie diet.
