Abilities

Pokémon Power: Strikes Back
Whenever your opponent's attack damages Machamp (even if Machamp is Knocked Out), this power does 10 damage to the attacking Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance.) This power can't be used if Machamp is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed when your opponent attacks.

Artwork Description

The artwork on this card depicts Machamp flexing its four muscular arms fiercely against a swirling dark cosmic background, exuding raw power and confidence as it prepares to unleash a devastating attack.

Playability Overview

Machamp's unique Strikes Back ability offers consistent counter damage, but its high retreat cost and vulnerability to status effects limit its strategic flexibility in competitive play.

Binder Inspiration

Main Binder Theme: Classic PowerhousesThis Machamp card is a great centerpiece for a page featuring strong, iconic fighters from the original sets. Its starry, spacey background sets it apart, so put it alongside other classic, physically powerful Pokémon like Hitmonchan or Poliwrath to highlight that energetic, battle-ready feel.Additional Binder Suggestions: Space / Bold / Retro / Fighting Legends / Iconic Strength
