I like to think if Goro won this, he'd walk about 3 steps before encountering another wild Machamp.

Well I mean machamps only happen when machoke is traded so that might be a bit far fetched

I love the fact that Machamp's extra arms (From a biological standpoint) are significantly better suited for fighting the Goro, despite it making Machamp look a bit goofy

[@leirbag1595]

Indeed. The Shokan's secondary arms look like they are intended as help to the primary ones rather than be an equal addition, because it doesn't seem like Goro's bone structure would support as much stress on his lower arms as it could his upper ones, while a Machamp has two full sets of shoulders, and a torso twice as thick, in order to use all four arms in equal capacity.

[@Sean-Johnson]

@@leirbag1595 Yeah. But it seems the Shokan learned how to use them.

[@dababydababy3274]

That’s honestly terrifying considering he literally deconstructed his entire body with 2 punches at once

[@Viking_Luchador]

you'd think in a DEATH battle, Prince Goro would have the advantage. But even if we ignore Pokedex and Trading Card "facts", in gameplay Machamp can perform the Seismic Toss on Celesteel and Cosmoem, both of which have an official weight of 2204.4 lbs. I don't think any Shokan can match that.

[@Viking_Luchador]

@Patient Devil here's something else to consider: Satoshi Taijiri has said that when battling, Pokemon actually pull their punches. To them it's just a friendly competition. If they were to actually use their full power, the fights would be extremely violent and even deadly.

I know that the 4 move limit is more game balancing than anything, but I still thought that was cool. You could argue some more, like his finisher being a Dynamic Punch or some of his throws being Submission, but he only uses four that you could undeniably call distinct moves as opposed to regular old punching and the like.

True, but TBH if I had to debunk one thing its the fact Seismic Toss isnt a planetary fall, if you use it in the Battle Tower in Pokemon Sword it shows that the Pokemon is only thrown a pretty long range, but not enough to be considered planetary. Its comparable to Noob Saibot's Teleport Slam move. But it still doesnt matter in the end cuz Machamp has alotta other moves to dispatch Goro.

I think it’s so impressive that they even kept machamp in the range of 4 moves. His main move was close combat (go figure) He uses submission twice. 11:47 isn’t a seismic toss because he didn’t toss him Then he does a beautiful cross chop to rock smash combo at 13:17

[@stevenrasche3159]

He used Knock Off to get rid of the weird bracelet blade things.

[@azure8935]

A Pokemon isn't bound by 4 moves FYI that's a gameplay mechanic, just like how a Digimon isn't bound to 1 like in Next Order and DB characters aren't only bound to 3 or 5 like in Budokai and somewhat of XV. We literally saw in the anime they can go beyond that "But the anime isn't can-!" There's a HUGE difference between a gameplay mechanic and how someone or something functions canonically which people fail to see. But if you wanna go deeper Masuda and Gamefreak are literally credited for making certain episodes and movies

Seismic Toss is shown in the anime and in Pokén tournament to grab the opponent then launch upwards to utilize gravity for the damage.
