Hitmonlee can also be challenged to noncombat challenges, if you can think of one you think might catch his attention. It has to be something dangerous or it doesn't count.

Problem with that is any sort of challenge like that would also put my own character and/or his Pokemon in danger too, since those types are likely competition based between individuals. That, and trying to come up to creative solutions to any given scenario is hard, more so than ever if their a tangible reward/failure hinging on it, like a carrot or anvil over a doorway. And since this a Coup Counter, any creative challenges proposed is going to be leaning more heavily towards the anvil of horrific failure and bad/no rewards than not for Terra and co, due to the inherent Danger. There's also the factor that any sort of challenge I make other than battle could also blow up on me spectacularly by him winning at it, leaving me the overall loser, Terra humilated and/or seriously injured, and the both of us feeling like crap for trying to be clever.

No, if I'm going to engage Hitmonlee, its going to be in a straight up battle, as Terra and his Pokemon are highly specced for Fights, and I know how to stack advantages moderately well in them. At the very least I'm better prepared to lose in a battle, and their is some honor/enjoyment in losing to a worthy opponent if you have the mind for it.
