Makuhita is a cute and chubby punching bag looking Pokemon. It can stand its ground confidently with the early and powerful 70 base power move Vital Throw learned at level 13. It does not take long to evolve though, however, becoming Hariyama at just level 24. Hariyama is a sumo wrestler Pokemon, and learns some curious moves as well. Right before evolution it learns Whirlwind at level 22, perhaps being a reference to the god of thunder Takemikazuchi, believed to have fought in the first ever sumo match. It learns Smellingsalt at level 31, a chemical compound in the real world that gives athletes an acute alert sense often before a big fight or performance at the cost of being extremely unpleasant to one's nasal nerve. It makes sense this damaging move cures a foes paralysis upon impact. Hariyama is a solid fighting type, enjoying access to other strategic moves such as Fake Out and Belly Drum among others.
