CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Machop sees strength as something to work on. Despite its small size, it exercises eagerly and explores martial arts to improve. Training with its companions also builds its confidence. When it feels ready, it seeks a challenge from Makuhita: its energy lies not only in its muscles but also in its constant desire to surpass itself.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Machop trains by carrying a Graveler on its shoulders. This unusual weight-training partner provides a concrete picture of its strength, far more telling than its size, which is comparable to a child's.
