Hariyama

#0297

Although they enjoy comparing their strength, they’re also kind. They value etiquette, praising opponents they battle.

Hariyama practices its straight-arm slaps in any number of locations. One hit of this Pokémon’s powerful, openhanded, straight-arm punches could snap a telephone pole in two.

Hariyama’s thick body may appear fat, but it is actually a hunk of solid muscle. If this Pokémon bears down and tightens all its muscles, its body becomes as hard as a rock.

Hariyama that are big and fat aren’t necessarily strong. There are some small ones that move nimbly and use moves skillfully.

It has the habit of challenging others without hesitation to tests of strength. It’s been known to stand on train tracks and stop trains using forearm thrusts.
