Machamp [QC 2/3] (ready for the third check)

APPROVED 1/3

Recommend Aegislash as a teammate, as he is one of the best switches to some of Machamp's counters, like Mega Medicham and Lati@s.
 
Dynamic punch and stone edge have a measly 8 pp and can be easiely stalled out of pp

Remove this, it's not a big enough con to get a mention in overview.

Stone Edge ohkos mega charizard-y and talonflame while having a very high chance of 2hkoing togekiss.

Add Gyarados.

Earthquake should go to OO, it's too situational and has only one use, hitting Aegislash reliably.

Yeah alex is my real name, and sorry for taking so long to stamp this, i was kinda busy irl.
 
I was just browsing, but when I saw that it says "outclassed by Conkeldurr" in cons, that begs the question of why is this guy getting an analysis? The reason? No Guard. It, therefore, is playing a different roll to Conkeldurr who is acting purely as a hard hitter with some risk involved, wheras Machamp is a low-risk pokemon at the expense of power and bulk (and of course other people not getting Focus Miss, Fire Miss, Hydro Miss, Stone Miss etc. hax against it). Remove mentions of it being outclassed as it would not even get an analysis if it was.
 
Say,which hits harder: Conkeldurr's Drain Punch, or Machamp's DynamicPunch? Because if it's Machamp, then I feel that should be mentioned.
 
Compare this Pokemon to Conkeldurr. No Mach Punch, less Attack, easily shut down with burns or much weaker if Iron Fist is used, no healing at all, less bulk. What it has... is Dynamicpunch. Which is cute but damn its just confusion. This is what Machamp trades for the ability to beat pokemon like Skarmory or Mandibuzz thanks to Drain Punch as well as not fearing pokemon such as Rotom or Heatran thanks to Guts.
