Machamp’s strengths and weaknesses
Those looking to add Machamp to their team must first be aware of the Pokémon’s strengths and weaknesses. Machamp is a powerful Pokémon, but that does not mean their are move-types that are super-effective against him.
Machamp’s two biggest weaknesses, as are also all Fighting-type Pokémon’s weaknesses, are Psychic, Fairy and Flying-type moves. It is imperative you have a Pokémon on your team two combat these two types, whether it is a Ghost-type or Electric-type Pokémon.
However, Machamp is also quite strong against other types of Pokémon. Machamp’s Fighting-type moves will be super effective against Normal, Dark, Ice, Rock and Steel-types. This gives players quite the advantage against quite a few Pokémon if they have Machamp on their team.
