Hariyama

CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Hariyama enjoys testing its strength against other Pokémon. Its body looks heavy, but the Pokédex describes a mass of muscles that can become hard as stone when flexed. With age, some turn from fighting to training young Makuhita. Even at the height of a confrontation, Hariyama can respect and congratulate a courageous opponent. Its power thus accompanies a mentoring role and a sense of fair combat.

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Ultra Moon notes that the strongest Hariyama are not necessarily the largest. Pokémon Sun shows older ones training Makuhita. Their reputation therefore rests on experience and technique as much as on size.
