Question

Mine has the No-Guard ability. It knows:

Dynamicpunch: Good damage, confuses for sure.

Stone Edge: High damage, good chance for critical hit, deals with Flying types.

Cross Chop: Good damage, good chance for a critical hit, used when Dynamicpunch runs out of PP.

Facade: Decent damage, useful effect.

Machamp@Leftovers / Lum Berry
Ability: No Guard
Nature: Adamant

Dynamic Punch / Cross Chop - Dynamic punch is super common and has that neat confuse rate. Although, I actually prefer Cross Chop ( I know, so weird.. ) because I love 100 base power moves that have high crit rates. Like Stone Edge... either way, both are good.

Dual Chop - Okay, not only is the animation really cool, but it's a really neat way to take out Multiscale Dragonite. If you're going full on Dragonite killer, then you need a completely different set overall. A set for killing Multiscale-Dragonite without rocks or assuming your rocks are already spun away would be using Flame Orb + Guts for the extra power. Once again, the only thing making Ice Punch inferior is that it gets weakened from Multiscale.

Stone Edge - I told you guys I like 100 BP moves with a high crit rate, didn't I? :3 ~ It hits hard for nice coverage. If you screw Dual Chop for something like bulk up, Ice Punch is an option here. Although Stone Edge has a high crit rate and gets accuracy boosted, etc.

Thunder Punch / Earthquake - This thing sadly gets walled by Jellicent easily. Guts + Flame orb path can make Stone Edge enough to take out Jellicent with a lucky crit, or something like that. Although without Guts boosting your attack, you're going to need a super effective hit. Or you can just rack some team support for that Jelly fish and go for some Earthquake action granting you Edge-Quake coverage.

Why Flame Orb and not Toxic Orb?
Flame Orb lowers his attack even further.

---

Flame Orb doesn't lower attack if you have Guts. Guts cancels the lower, AND boosts it.

---

Oooh l see! l didn't know that.

---

Yep...

---

Without No-Guard he belongs in NU. Outclassed by Throh and especially by Conkeldurr.

I love the pic that goes with this.

Dang it that Machamp pic was so legit tho... Oh well.

Answer 3

Gen V

Machamp (M) @ Life Orb

Trait: No Guard

EVs: 128 HP / 252 Atk / 128 SDef

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

• DynamicPunch
• Stone Edge
• Ice Punch
• Bullet Punch

So, this guy is NU now. Yeah... makes no sense to me either. I mean, this guy is much better than Hitmontop. And while Hitmonlee and Mienshao are good and deserve to be in UU, Machamp is Machamp! DynamicPunch just destroys everything. Stone Edge also makes use of No-Guard and gives nice type coverage along with nice power. Bullet Punch provides you with priority. And Ice Punch is there for taking down Gliscor (and also Landorus, but mainly Gliscor). It also does good damage on Dragon types. Life Orb lets you hit even harder. Your EVs provide you with some bulk, and maximizes your Attack. How is this incredibly powerful Pokemon NU? HOW?!?

Good, now OU.

Wow he was NU?

Answer 6

Competitive :

DynamicPunch

Stone Edge

Thunder/Ice Punch -(Cover Flying - Machamp has good defence so can take some flying hits)

EarthQuake (No point covering Psychic cause most psychics have high sp.attack and machamp has lower sp.def than defence so a big chance it would faint - and great power , used to deal with MANY pokemon )

In-Game

Cross Chop

Rock Slide (PP is essential in game)

Elemental Punch ( Any , your choice )

PayBack (Machamp is slow enough to attack last )

Enjoy Battling !! :)

Ability: No-guard
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 200 Attack, 200 S.Defense, 158 Defense

---

Bulk-up
Dynamic-punch
Rock-slide
Earthquake/Bullet-punch

---

Bulk-up is for boosting Attack and Defense. Dynamic-punch is for STAB and is a classic move for the Machamp family. Rock-slide covers Flying types. Earthquake is for coverage, while Bullet-punch would be for priority.

Answer 10

Double/Triple Battle

Machamp (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: No Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- DynamicPunch
- Rock Slide
- Earthquake
- Wide Guard

No Guard is the selling point of Machamp. Your teammates can use inaccurate attacks such as Blizzard and Zap Cannon and then end up destroying the foe. DynamicPunch is STAB that confuses. Rock Slide hits multiple foes, as does Earthquake. Wide Guard protects your teammates from multiple Pokemon hitting attacks.

Comments

That's not a bad moveset, but I would recommend holding Iron Ball instead of flame orb because, while it does help give you the Burn condition, you'll be sacrificing 100 Base Power for Fling because of your held item choices.  I'd go with Iron Ball, and instead why not have a Pokemon on your team inflict a Burn on Machamp with Will-o-Wisp or Bestow to it, those are my suggestions for this moveset and Ability.

Answer 12

Pokemon: Machamp
Ability: No Guard
Item: Zap Plate/Magnet

Thunder Punch: Coverage Plus no guard if oppenent uses fly
Dynamic Punch: No guard plus 100 percent confusion will PWN! and STAB
Stone Edge: Same Thing as Thunder Punch
Fire Punch: Has some power and random

Answer 13

Awesome hard hitter and staller:

Protect with MAX pp for toxic. never fails because of no guard
Dynamic punch stab and great power
toxic for stalling
Stone edge for flying coverage.

SWEET MACHAMP LOL.

Answer 14

OMG! Machamp is a very nice fighting type Pokemon.

Nature: Adamant
IVs: HP

Cross Chop: Increase critical hit radio and is a good move.
Stone Edge: Hell yes! This move can cover weakness and increase critical hit radio too.
Thunder Punch: Yeah, this also can cover weakness and got 10% paralyse opponent.
Dynamic Punch: Wow, really confuse and powerful punch.

Item: Razor Claw/Black Belt/Quick Claw

Answer 15

whoa this is old ;] but I have a set so I might as well share. I was taught this from someone...

Machamp @ Leftovers

Ability: No Guard

EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spd

Nature: Adamant ( + Atk - SpAtk)

Moveset:

• Substitute
• Dynamic Punch
• Payback

• Ice Punch/Stone Edge

  That HP makes Machamp very bulky, decent defences make it very hard to OHKO. Hitting of a sub allows a definite Dynamic Punch. The power it brings is very hard hitting, anything that doesn't get OHKOed will get a nasty case of confusion. And no Flying or Psychic type will like getting hit by a Payback or a stone edge.
