Strategy & play

How Machamp-GX plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Its main attack (Muscle Punch-GX) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Hits for 180 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
  • Needs Fighting Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Fighting type, weak to Psychic ×2 — a Psychic attacker doing ≥125 effectively one-shots it.
  • A two-prize Pokémon — each KO gives the opponent 2 Prizes, so a single bad trade can lose the race. Back it with single-prize attackers.
  • Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.

How to beat Machamp-GX

  • Exploit its Psychic weakness — ≥125 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
