Gigantamax Machamp's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Gigantamax Machamp Max Battles

Machamp may no longer be the top Fighting type for Raids, but when it comes to Max Battles, there’s nothing that even comes close to the power of Gigantamax Machamp.

It possesses a good ATK and the powerful GMax Chi Strike move to plummet down targets, especially bulky Normal types like DMax Blissey and GMax Snorlax. It does not have a 0.5s Fast Move to charge up this move as quickly as you would like, but that’s no problem, as your tanks can absorb damage and charge up the Max Meter, and then you can bring in GMax Machamp to wreak havoc.

GMax Chi Strike does 350/400/450 DMG for level 1/2/3, but the damage at level 3 can be boosted to level 4 and 550 DMG with the Dynamax Cannon Adventure Effect of Eternatus.

It's not bulky, so keep that in mind, especially when the Max Boss uses Psychic-type moves.

🥊 GMax Machamp & other Fighting types in Max Battles

GMax Machamp is a sole crusader, as no other Fighting-type Pokémon has a Gigantamax form in the mainline games. Down the line, Dynamax Pheromosa will challenge GMax Machamp to a degree, but ultimately, this Kanto classic remains a tremendously meta-relevant Fighting-type Max attacker.

🔒 Is GMax Machamp future-proof?

Yes, and there’s no other Fighting-type Gigantamax that exists for now. With Fighting types getting wide coverage (against Dark, Ice, Normal, Rock, and Steel), GMax Machamp is an invaluable part of the Gigantamax meta.

    Gigantamax Machamp FAQ

    How good is Gigantamax Machamp in Max Battles?

    Gigantamax Machamp ranks #1 out of 24 in the Fighting-type Max Battle attacker ranking, in SS Tier.

    The score is damage from one Max Attack, not DPS. A real boss’s Defense and weaknesses change the damage and may change the order. This ranking does not estimate total battle time, faints or team performance.

    Compare the best Max Battle attackers by type

    Which moves should Gigantamax Machamp use in Max Battles?

    Recommended moves

    Max Attack damage determines the ranking. When movesets deal equal damage, faster Max Meter generation breaks the tie. The recommended Fast Attack therefore helps charge the meter; it is not necessarily the hardest-hitting Fast Attack. The charging comparison uses the same neutral target.

    What does the asterisk beside a move mean?

    The recommended movesets above do not include legacy moves.

    An asterisk marks a legacy move, which may require an event, an Elite TM or another special method. Some legacy moves cannot be taught with an Elite TM.

    Why do some attackers use a Fast Attack of another type?

    For Dynamax Pokémon, the Fast Attack normally determines the Max Attack type; Hidden Power produces Max Strike. Gigantamax Pokémon have a fixed G-Max Attack. Crowned Pokémon and Eternatus also use fixed special attacks. Changing their Fast Attack does not change that attack’s type.

    How are these attackers ranked?

    The default ranking uses Level 40 Pokémon, perfect IVs and level-3 Max Attacks against a neutral target, with no weather boost. Only released Pokémon are included.

    Should I build only the highest-ranked attacker?

    No. This list helps choose damage dealers. A Max Battle team can also need Pokémon that resist the boss’s attacks or restore HP. Use the boss’s Max Battle counters page to compare attackers, tanks and healers for that encounter.

    What are Gigantamax Machamp’s strengths and weaknesses?

    As a Fighting-type Pokémon, Gigantamax Machamp is weak to Fairy, Flying, and Psychic-type moves.

    What is Gigantamax Machamp’s maximum CP at Level 40 and Level 50?

    Gigantamax Machamp’s maximum CP at Level 40 is 3056 CP and 3455 CP at Level 50.

    Can Gigantamax Machamp be shiny in Pokémon GO?

    Gigantamax Machamp can be Shiny in Pokémon GO ✨.
