History[edit]
The Hitmonshido are a very rare evolution of tyrogue born of the wilds of Korais. Tyrogue are only able to evolve into Hitmonshido after leveling up when their attack and speed stats are the same, while holding a Bushido Blade, which is a Koraisen-made sword passed down to tyrogue's that follow the Shido code. The Shido Code is a very long lasting ideology, dating back to ancient Korais, before the great chasm split the region in half, with temples sprawled across the region, but, found more commonly on the east side of the region. Their temples seem to be in worship of different legendary Pokémon, more specifically the deific legendaries but, the legendary depend on each temple. Most commonly they worship Arceus and the Lake Trio.
Society[edit]
Hitmonshido society is a very old and concrete society, founded on principles of respect, honor, bravery, reverence, and strength of not only body, but as well as mind and will. Hitmonshido settlements only have two extremes, that being isolational or communitty, the difference being that one has their temples far from other societies and the other intermingles with other towns and small cities apart from the temple's inhabitants. Most temples, beside isolantional or community, tend to have some non-Hitmon residents, that being fighting types like Sawk and Throw or steel types like Lucario and Escavalier
