I always liked that Machamp's extra arms have their own separate shoulders and not just sprouting out of its torso like most multi-armed humanoids in fiction. It looks awkward at a glance but it has way more range of motion to swing punches and throw people around that way. From a design standpoint it's almost how you would imagine such a creature to realistically evolve if six-limbed vertebrates actually existed.

Kirran talked about Gen 4 Machamp like he had PTSD

You'll know that Machamp throwing 500 punches a second is true if you played Pokkén Tournament

28:03 I never realized until now that Bewear covers his face when getting hit by a move. Thats so adorable.

One fun detail for Gen 1 Machamp is that it is actually good at baiting in psychic types and then eliminating them with Counter. When you do it right, your own explosion damage (or self destruct damage) can be carried over with Counter after you used the mentioned moves above. So if your opponent sends in Chansey as you send in Machamp, when they switch to say Alakazam, or Starmie, or Zapdos then they will take the full damage of the explosion or self destruct through counter on the switch which then KOs it. Extremely funny when you can get this to work.

What an obscure and niche reference to make at 17:18. The little things make your commentary so interesting

Now here's a video that's old enough where the difference in production value is big enough where it's worth the rewatch, you go FSG you've been grinding it out for years, and it's been long enough that there's a lot of competitive history to catch up on so an update remake is appropriate too. Great video, and Machamp has always been a fun pokemon with four arms and no guard.

25:27 Did that guy seriously bring two Rhyperior?

That Pokemon Stadium Low Kick animation is hilarious to me. Just watching a 4 armed fighter be like I think I'll use my legs then see the abysmal damage is just comedic.

Machamp is also one of the biggest "what if" pokemon of all time, as the only Pokemon in the game with access to No guard and an OHKO move. Only problem is, the OHKO more is only available from a transfer from gen 1, and all pokemon transferred from gen 1 have their hidden abilities, so we don't yet have a way to give Machamp back No Guard, as it isn't in gen 9, but if champ returns in gen 10 and gets to keep Fissure, it might become a terror the likes of which have never been seen.

Fun fact! In Pokkén Tournament, Machamp’s super move has it punching the opponent 1,000 times. Sure, it’s a few seconds over two seconds, but yknow, it’s for a cool cutscene that shows the Dex entry isn’t overexaggerating.

I kept hitting punches, and he kept trying to set up on me, probably thinking I’d miss eventually. I had Focus Energy and Scope Lens on it too, for 100% crit rate.

I was today years old when I learned that machamps drop kick in pokken is based on his kick animation in stadium

Machamp's extra pair of shoulders makes it look like it has back abs. Also, Machamp COULD run Rock Slide in Gen 1.

Machamp is my favorite Fighting type cause of its awesome & intricate design. They did it so dirty in its debut generation but made up for it somewhat in later gens. How I would buff it is lowering its Sp. atk by 20 and putting that into its HP & defense to be a little bulkier, plus give it Drain Punch too. Lastly, I think the Pokedex states it can throw 1,000 punches a minute, so a lot more believable than 500 a second.

In my opinion you should mention Golem along with Rhydon in Gen I. Yes, nowadays Rhydon is considered superior, but for like 10-15 years they were considered interchangeable, with Rhydon having better stats and Golem having Explosion. So if you're talking about the history of Gen I then it's worth saying "Rhydon and Golem", even if nobody uses Golem in Gen I today anymore.

I really liked doing sleep talk with gen 6 singles and got pretty far in that kanto special online tournament hosted in XY. It's pretty funny to heal yourself and also get a guts boost!

Machamp did have a rough start but later on proved why Machamp was the OG of fighting types in generation 1, even with newcomers like Conkeldurr and Pangoro who would takeover in the competitive scene, Machamp still was fierce in the competitive scene.

I could have sworn that there was a way to get Fissure on No Guard Machamp at some point. I would have thought that would see at least some use in VGC.
