FistPuncher

* Super
* Casual

**FistPuncher**, alternatively parsed as **Fist Puncher** (real name: **Lyle**), is a recurring villain in *Hamster & Gretel*. He and his twin sister Lauren (who goes by the name The Destructress) have received superpowers from the same aliens that bestowed Hamster and Gretel with superpowers. However, instead of using them for good, the aliens specifically instructed them to use them for evil, which Lyle and Lauren willingly comply to.

Lyle is the less intelligent of the two villains. As FistPuncher, his modus operandi is basically causing destruction by punching anything he can, and occasionally shouting his name. He and Lauren don't always see eye to eye, as the twin siblings tend to get into fights constantly.

## Physical appearance

Lyle is tall and has a stocky build, with ivory skin, and a short, upturned nose. His forearms have some hair on them. His hair is a medium blond, that is cut to be shaved at the sides and slicked back. He has round dark brown eyes with thick eyebrows.

In his civilian form (unless on specific occasions or episodes such as "Saturday Homecoming Fever"), Lyle wears a short-sleeved, light magenta shirt, with a yellow heart under a red prohibition sign, blue jeans, and three toned gray shoes.

In his villain form, Lyle wears a sleeveless, light blue top with an orange thumbs-down symbol on it, a blue cape with an orange tie around his neck, dark blue pants with orange lightning bolt symbols on them, blue gloves, blue and orange boots, and a dark blue mask that covers his neck and head (except his eyes, ears, mouth and nose) with three long spikes on top.

## Personality

Lyle is a somewhat simple-minded and irritable young man. As FistPuncher, he enjoys punching things and tends to feel the need to express this vocally. Lyle is not one to think thoroughly on his actions and just does them without hesitation, much to the chagrin of his sister. The two often get into fights due to their conflicting personalities, even before receiving superpowers. He also seems to enjoy eating snacks, given that's all the motivation he needed to head off and ruin a homecoming dance (something he is much less interested in by comparison),

Lyle seems to be morally dubious even before he's told to be a supervillain, showing little to no hesitation in committing to it when he was told so.

## Powers and abilities

Both Lyle and his sister have been given superpowers similar to those of Hamster and Gretel, including the following:

* **Flight** - Both Lyle and Lauren are able to fly in the air and remain airborne in place.
* **Super-strength** - Both of the twin villains are able to lift and throw super-heavy objects like freighters and cranes. Between the two of them, Lauren and Lyle can lift up to 156 tons (in weight), a mere one ton short of how much Hamster and Gretel could lift.
* **Instant costume change** - It's been shown that Lauren and Lyle can change from their regular outfit to their supervillain costumes in an instant.

It is revealed in "The Bitter Sitter" that Lyle's superpowers don't work well when he's freezing in an environment with a subzero temperature. It is unknown if Lauren shares this weakness, or if Hamster and Gretel's superpowers don't work when they have it cold.
