Trivia[]

  • All of Machamp's sprites in Generation III lack its belt.
  • Machamp, along Lucario and Blaziken, was one of the first Pokémon to be featured in Pokkén Tournament.
    • Coincidentally, they are all Fighting-types.
    • Machamp's Burst Attack, if pulled off successfully, delivers 1000 hits, but in two waves, one wave of 765 hits and the second of 235 hits. The reason it stops at 765 before going on to the next wave is because 765 can be read "na-mu-ko," the Japanese pronunciation of Namco, as Pokkén Tournament is a spinoff of their Tekken series, and as such is commonly associated with Namco games, similar to how 573 ("ko-na-mi") is associated with Konami games.
  • Machamp's Shiny coloration is likely a reference to the Incredible Hulk.
  • Machamp can be seen as a counterpart to Gengar. Both have three-stage evolutionary lines, evolving into their first stage by leveling up, and then into their second stage by trading. Both were introduced in Generation I, and have version exclusive Gigantamax forms which are the signature Pokémon of the version exclusive Gym Leaders of Generation VIII.

Origin[]

Machamp appears to be based off a bodybuilder and an Asura.

Etymology[]

Machamp is a mix of macho (Spanish for masculine) and champ.
