Well now, let me tell ya ’bout that Machoke in Pokémon GO. It’s a big ol’ fella, real muscly, and sure can pack a punch when it comes to battlin’. If you’re out there in the game, chasin’ after it, you better know a thing or two ‘bout how to make the best use of this tough guy. Machoke’s a Fighting-type Pokémon, and it evolves from that lil’ Machop. Get one of them Machops, level ‘em up, and you can evolve it into a Machoke, but it ain’t no quick job! You gotta gather up some candies first—25 candies to get a Machoke from a Machop, and then if you want that top-tier Machamp, you’ll need 100 candies to evolve Machoke into it.
Now, I reckon the thing folks really wanna know is, what’s the best way to use this here Machoke? Well, let me tell ya, it’s all ‘bout them moves, ain’t it? You need to know which moves it can learn so you can get the best outta ‘em. Machoke’s strongest moveset, if you ask me, is that Karate Chop and Dynamic Punch. Oh, it’ll sure show them other Pokémon what it means to mess with a real tough feller. Karate Chop is a fast move, and that Dynamic Punch, well, that’s a real heavy hitter. It’ll knock the wind right outta anyone who’s foolish enough to stand against it.

But let’s not get too carried away, there’s somethin’ you ought to know about Machoke too. It’s strong, but it ain’t invincible. It’s vulnerable to certain types of moves, like them Flying-type, Psychic-type, and Fairy-type moves. So, if you’re up against a Pokémon with one of them types, well, don’t say I didn’t warn ya! You better plan ahead and be ready to counter ’em properly, or that Machoke of yours might find itself in a bit of a bind.
Oh, and you should know, there’s a way to get a special Machoke too. Yup, I’m talkin’ ‘bout the shiny ones! Now, if you’re lucky enough, you can catch a shiny Machop and evolve it into a shiny Machoke, and even a shiny Machamp if you work hard enough for it. Those shiny ones, they sure do look fancy, all glimmerin’ and whatnot, and they got the same strong moves as the regular ones, so it’s really just for the look if you ask me.
So, where can you get your hands on one of these Machokes, you ask? Well, there’s a few ways. Sometimes they pop up in raid battles, like in that one that ran from July 22 to July 24, 2024. They might also show up in field research tasks, like that “Adventures Abound” event from September to December 2023. But if you wanna find a Machoke just wanderin’ ‘round the map, well, that can be a little tricky. You gotta keep an eye out for them special events, or sometimes trade with a friend who’s got one.
One more thing before I let ya go—Machoke can be a real help in them Pokémon GO Battle Leagues, too. If you’re gonna use it in PvP battles, ya gotta make sure you’ve got the right IVs and moves. Machoke can hold its own, but it’s all about that strategy. You’ll wanna have a good set of moves, and you can even go up against some tough challengers, dependin’ on how you play it.
So, to sum it all up, Machoke’s a real powerhouse, and if you’re smart about how you use it, you can get some good fights in. Don’t forget to keep an eye out for them shiny ones, and make sure you’ve got the right moves and strategy, or that ol’ Machoke might not do you much good. But if you take care of business, you’ll have yourself a mighty strong Pokémon on your team!
