When he tries to run, he's usually quite slow. There have only been a few occasions where he's been able to run at slightly faster speedsEpisode 4 - When Monsters MeetEpisode 5 - The Cyclops Project) with at least Hypersonic leaping speed (Leaped away over attacks from several tanks.Episode 3 - Origin of the Hulk Caught a space shuttle,Episode 1 - Tomb of the Unknown Hulk can cover countless miles with a single leap, outpace the hypersonic plane Jet Marine [Implied to be the fastest of its kind up to that point, faster than the North American X-15 which travels at Mach 6.7], and catch an army jet.Episode 13 - The Hulk destroys Bruce Banner The show's bible implies there's no place [on Earth, at least] where the Hulk can't get to via jumping.) with FTL perceptions and combat speed (Can react to and deflect lasers with his fists and regularly dodges beams from similar weapons made at Gamma base.Episode 5 - The Cyclops ProjectEpisode 8 - It Lives! It Grows! It Destroys!

Can tear through tanks [as well as planes] and rip them apart with ease, while in a somewhat angry state.Episode 2 - Prisoner of the Monster Moved and shook the 10100-tonne Eiffel Tower during his fight with Quasimodo and could bend the beams holding up the structure.Episode 4 - When Monsters Meet Potentially packs this much force when jumping at hypersonic speeds, and his arms are just as powerful as his legs according to the show's bible.), higher with Rage | Varies.

It Grows! It Destroys! His durability should be comparable to Talbot's who survived a large blast of electricity.Episode 2 - Prisoner of the Monster Seemingly tanked having his hand on top of an exploding control panelEpisode 6 - Bruce Banner Unmasked) | Varies. At least Large Town level+ (Can shrug off hits from others comparable to him, or weapons akin to mason cannons.Episode 3 - Origin of the HulkEpisode 4 - When Monsters MeetEpisode 11 - Enter: She-Hulk Tanked an explosion that destroyed a mesa caused by the world's mightiest explosives, processed vibraniumEpisode 10 - Punks on Wheels), up to City level+ (Shrugged off and grew strong enough to tank and walk through city-busting beams from the Sonar Crystallizer which yielded at least this muchEpisode 2 - Prisoner of the Monster) and higher with Rage (A weaker primitive Hulk survived being inside a Yucatán volcano when it erupted and was unfazed by itEpisode 2 - Prisoner of the Monster) | At least Wall level, likely higher (Fought against a Gila Monster that proved to be nearly as strong as himEpisode 9 - The Incredible Shrinking Hulk), higher with Rage
Stamina: Athletic to Peak Human (Resisted limited exposure to a poisonous gas from an ancient Yucatán pyramid trap.Episode 2 - Prisoner of the Monster Escaped and hid from a mob composed of all of Mesa City's citizens and Gamma baseEpisode 6 - Bruce Banner Unmasked) | Superhuman (Can go on a rampage or a search for several hoursEpisode 1 - Tomb of the Unknown HulkEpisode 7 - The Creature and the Cavegirl)
Range: Standard Melee Range | Extended Melee Range due to size (Is 2.106 m tall, close to the more simplified seven feet he's described with in the show's bible) Tens of Meters with thunderclap (His thunderclap can extend for dozens of metersEpisode 9 - The Incredible Shrinking Hulk) and Hundreds of Meters with environmental projectiles (If he wished, he could throw a bus half a mile or 804.67200 meters away with ease.) | Below Standard Melee Range 
Intelligence: 
*Extraordinary Genius as Bruce Banner (Quickly repaired some wires affected by gamma rays that temporarily shut down all of Gamma Base and kept it shielded from outside communication for more than a day. Built a containment room and a press machine that could hold off a fairly angry Hulk, within a small base also built by him, connected to Gamma Base for power and able to see events in Gamma Base via cameras.Episode 1 - Tomb of the Unknown Hulk With a rope, he managed to infiltrate an ancient protected temple, and with a lab burner of some kind he shorted out a huge blast of electricity so it would eat itself up in the water of the sprinklers above.Episode 2 - Prisoner of the Monster Created the gamma ray formula [and presumably designed the bomb as well] and hid it inside a lamp.Episode 3 - Origin of the Hulk Can identify a type of deadly gas just by looking at it, rewired one of Cyclops' advanced robots in order to make it shoot a beam using a few wires as remote controls, later tricking Cyclops' advanced mind itself and managing to deactivate it.Episode 5 - The Cyclops Project Reprogrammed the Garth 7, an extremely advanced computer that could've blown his secret identity, in seconds, plus tricked people holding him against his will that he was turning into the Hulk in order to escape and built not one but two anti-mind control devices against the Puppet Master's ability to control Mesa City and Gamma Base via his atomic clay statues, in a matter of minutes at most [additionally, Bruce apparently taught Rick enough about computer programming to know how to handle Puppet Master's technology, wiping everyone's memories clean of Bruce being Hulk except for Rick's and making all the Puppet Master's tech self-destruct.].Episode 6 - Bruce Banner Unmasked Can repair a time machine capable of sending an entire lab room back to 1 million years ago and could identify long extinct prehistoric poisonous plants at a glance.Episode 7 - The Creature and the Cavegirl Bruce possesses some degree of medical knowledge, which he used for a blood transfusion to help his cousin's life while she was in a critical state.Episode 11 - Enter: She-Hulk Built a transmat device that could teleport someone from one building to anotherEpisode 13 - The Hulk destroys Bruce Banner)
*Below Average to Average as the Hulk (Normally very aggressive, described as dim-witted by the narrator and not too articulate or intelligent but still knowledgeable enough to put out fires with sand and water, find a hospital if one of his friends is injured or get them to safetyEpisode 10 - Punks on WheelsEpisode 12 - The Boy Who Saw Tomorrow or not to destroy something that is property of the government, the T-70 tank.Episode 9 - The Incredible Shrinking Hulk Can use other objects against his foes, like a net against some soldiers.Episode 8 - It Lives! It Grows! It Destroys! Leaped on top of a plane, predicting where it would go, in order to break it.Episode 13 - The Hulk destroys Bruce Banner The show's bible does specify that he is not stupid, relative to Banner his mind is just clouded to all of Banner's knowledge.)
*It should be noted that Banner and Hulk share a mind to an extent, whenever Bruce saw his friends in trouble he turned into Hulk and Hulk went to rescue them, more motivated and stronger than before.Episode 1 - Tomb of the Unknown HulkEpisode 12 - The Boy Who Saw Tomorrow When two terrorists hijacked the T-70 tank, Bruce was helpless to stop it but transformed and the Hulk stopped it.Episode 9 - The Incredible Shrinking Hulk When Hulk dropped something from his pants and saw it fall into a hole, Bruce returned to where that happened and recovered what fell from his pants. As Hulk, he heard Quasimodo call his pet Salvatore a few times, and as Bruce he remembered his name.Episode 4 - When Monsters Meet When the Puppet Master tried to control the Hulk's mind, this forced Bruce to transform.Episode 6 - Bruce Banner Unmasked When Bruce was captured and tortured by the Leader, Hulk remembered what he had done to him and Betty and went after himEpisode 10 - Punks on Wheels)
Weaknesses: Cosmic rays can force Bruce Banner into transforming, and Bruce was able to stop the transformation with some extra help from anesthetic gas,Episode 1 - Tomb of the Unknown Hulk which usually works well against Hulk regardless.Episode 12 - The Boy Who Saw Tomorrow Even as Banner he emits a small amount of gamma radiation, meaning he can be tracked down by devices built to find the Hulk.Episode 13 - The Hulk destroys Bruce Banner Exposure to gamma radiation will turn Bruce into Hulk and Hulk back into Banner.Episode 5 - The Cyclops ProjectEpisode 8 - It Lives! It Grows! It Destroys! Hulk can turn back into Banner after getting tired as well, or if Hulk is bored and inactive and decides to rest. Hulk doesn't attack or hurt animals or people unless they threaten him, though he might even kill them if they push him too far.Episode 7 - The Creature and the Cavegirl
