As it stands, the Hitmonchan analysis has three sets: Choice Band, Choice Scarf and SubPunch. I think that's a little unimaginative, so would like to propose a new set.
If it's not possible to include that set, then I think Agility should at least be mentioned in Other Options. Hitmonchan's power and type coverage really lends itself to Agility, and he forces enough switches to earn a free turn.

[SET]
Name: Agili-Chan
Move 1: Agility
Move 2: Close Combat
Move 3: Ice Punch
Move 4: ThunderPunch
Item: Life Orb
Ability: Iron Fist
Nature: Adamant
EV's: EV's: 98HP/ 252Atk/ 160Speed
Get an Agility in, then pummel the opponent to death. Best used late game when the opponent's physical walls are weakened or dead.
Electric/Ice/Fight grants excellent coverage and with an impressive Attack score and Iron Fist, 'Chan can be a big threat with a speed boost.
The Speed EV's generate 228 speed which allows Hitmonchan to outspeed Garchomp w/ Choice Scarf after an Agility and Ice Punch for the KO. If you don't fear Garchomp, then the next logical speed number to aim for is 202 to outspeed Choice Scarf Heracross.
