The '''Hype Boost Monkey''' is the {{BTD6|Monkey Boost}}'s [[Power Pro]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', introduced in {{BTD6 version|54.0}}. It provides a buff to all towers in range after activating its High Intensity Hype [[Activated Ability]], but in contrast to its regular counterpart, it is limited to the [[Tower|towers]] in range in exchange to not being single-use.

In base state, it has a range of 30 units and when it uses its High Intensity Hype ability, it halves the [[Attack speed|attack cooldown]] of all Towers in range, effectively doubling their attack speed for ~~15s~~. The ability has a cooldown of ~~90s, which is also the initial cooldown~~.

In base state, it has a range of 45 units and when it uses its High Intensity Hype ability, it halves the [[Attack speed|attack cooldown]] of all Towers in range, effectively doubling their attack speed for 15 seconds. The ability has a cooldown of 90 seconds.

The Power can be upgraded in one of three paths:

The Hype Boost Monkey as an investable Power Pro isn't really worth the Monkey Money unless specifically wanting a specific interaction with game mechanics such as avoiding [[line of sight]] blockers or preventing enemy debuffs. However, in the long-term, the Hype Boost Monkey can be more worth it than many Monkey Boosts, as well as being ability-based, being a more proactive version of Monkey Boost that also saves more time compared to reacting to opening the Powers panel. It is recommended to buy upgrades for the Hype Boost Monkey to be worth the investment.

Each upgrade path of the Hype Boost Monkey can be beneficial:

*Path 1 — Increased range, accuracy, camo detection, and ignorance of blockers are beneficial for setups that have trouble on specific maps that are only difficult from a lack of strategic locations that would normally be great for Villages, and just to avoid obstacles if needed.

*Path 2 — Improved uptime of the ability and ignorance of enemy debuffs is beneficial against Bosses and Frontier Bloons, but the enemy debuff ignorance is not useful on problematic maps.

*Path 3 — Being able to stack Hype abilities and add passive buffs are beneficial for general purposes.

Due to the medium-sized hitbox of Hype Boost Monkey, being the size of a [[Boomerang Monkey (BTD6)|Boomerang Monkey]], as well as attack speed buffs diminishing in value, Hype Boost Monkey is not worth an extra [[Ninja Monkey (BTD6)|Ninja Monkey]] in deep [[Freeplay]] runs that do not forbid the use of Powers.
