Pokemon UNITE Machamp Guide: Throwing Punches

That being said, Machamp is an incredible All-Rounder once you get a feel for what you’re doing with it. This Pokemon UNITE Machamp guide will show players how to lock the opposition into submission.

Machamp Overview

Machamp is a pure fighting type All-Rounder with some of the best offensive capabilities. Its star ratings are as follows:

Offense: 4 stars

Endurance: 2 1/2 stars

Mobility: 2 1/2 stars

Scoring: 2 1/2 stars

Support: 1 star

Machamp has high offensive power and should be paired with a defender and/or supporter so the player can focus on high damage output. Below, this guide will give a comprehensive recommendation on how to build the best Machamp.

Eject Button:

Like with most other builds in the meta, Machamp benefits from the eject button. Machamp’s offensive capabilities are offset by poor mobility. Using the eject button can help players get Machamp out of ambushes and other overwhelming situations. In addition, this works especially well if Machamp mains find themselves alone.

Held Items

Scope Lens:

Machamp is already pretty stacked with a high offense. All the player needs to do is make sure its hits can count. Using Scope Lens to boost the rate of critical hits, Machamp will be able to deal out more hits that take more health.

Float Stone:

Float Stone helps Machamp move faster when not in combat. In addition, it will also bolster its attack, making it even more powerful when paired with defenders like Eldegoss.

Muscle Band:

Lastly, equipping this Pokemon with the Muscle Band will allow Machamp to deal damage at an even greater damage output.

With all of these items stacking up to bolster its offenses, Machamp will prove to be debilitating to anyone on the enemy team. When fully upgraded, these items will work for the player, however, they will not work without the proper moves.

Best Moves

Submission:

ALWAYS have this move. Submission releases Machamp’s power by putting it into a status immune state, as well as increasing its movement speed. Once it catches up to the target, pressing the A button allows Machamp to zone the opponent inward, controlling their placement. After this, Machamp’s attack increases for a short time.

Close Combat:

Unleashes a series of punches in the designated direction, dealing increased damage with the last punch. Players can move while using this move and it makes Machamp immune to hindrances. Stacking this with Machamp’s Ult exposes the player to a barrage of damage all at once that will guarantee a kill if used on them at low enough health.

Conclusion

Bottom lane can be extremely overwhelming. However, with practice and adherence to this Pokemon UNITE Machamp guide, players will knock defenders out of the ring. Clench those fists and pave the way for victory players!
