Description

Mega Machamp is a brutally strong option and lead when facing Pryce. With this setup, you should aim for the Pryce team that starts with Alolan Sandslash. Drain Punch one shots both Sandslash and Mega Glalie. Mach Punch two shots Arctovish while minimizing Fishious Rend damage. A combination of these moves should take out Kyurem-Black. Heavy Slam and Knock Off round out your coverage to do solid damage to Clefable and Reuniclus respectively. The pre-Mega ability shouldn't matter, but I had Guts on at the time. When/if Machamp finally goes down, you should be at a huge advantage in terms of pokemon remaining, allowing the rest of your team an easy cleanup against the remainder.

Description

Mega Machamp is a brutally strong option when facing Jasmine. Drain Punch is your main attacking option, providing the damage and healing to 1v1 Necrozma-Dusk Mane, Genesect, Magnezone and Mega Aggron with a healthy enough start to their encounter. Mach Punch finishes off the former two when brought to low health. Necrozma should go down in two Drains and a Mach, Genesect to one Drain and a Mach, Magnezone to one Drain, and Aggron to two or three Drains if it doesn’t set any Curses up. Ice Punch and Poison Jab round out your coverage, one shotting Gliscor and Tapu Bulu respectively. Mega Machamp is able to sometimes live a Tapu Bulu Play Rough from full health, but unless it’s her final pokemon, it’s better to switch out and conserve Machamp’s health as much as possible for the next 1v1.

Roaring Moon comes out and it doesnt kill with Crunch so Drain Punch. Magearna comes out and Machamp outspeeds and Drain Punch back to full health.

Description

Mega Machamp is an extremely good option and lead for Erika Rematch for the ones that want Ogerpon and the Grass Knot TM. Fire Punch turn one has no drawbacks whatsoever, as Meowscarada will switch out with U-Turn, and every mon on her team gets to killing range after a Fire Punch except Magearna. Ampharos dies to Drain + Mach or Fire + Drain, Serperior dies to Fire + Mach or Drain + Mach, Hawlucha dies to Fire + Ice albeit it is very risky to pull off and Kartana of couse dies to Fire or Drain. Later on Meows will be dealt with Fire/Ice or Drain + Mach. Magearna only dies to Fire + Fire if it comes in after Meows U-Turn and gets burned, so better switch into a mon to deal with her to keep Machamp healthy for stuff like Serperior or Kartana. If Machamp dies which is very rare, if not impossible thanks to the amount of healing with Drain + Terrain, her team would have no threats that can sweep you, and your remaining mons should be able to clean up.
