Strategy Overview
Machoke may not be as strong as his OU counterpart Machamp, but his blend of a base 100 Attack stat and decent 80/70/60 defenses provide him with the tools he needs in order to succeed in the UU metagame. No Guard and Dynamic Punch set him apart from other Fighting-types in the UU metagame, and his unique movepool makes him an optimal choice as a lead.
