* Machamp could be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Alakazam}}. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary family, both were introduced in [[Generation I]], they reach their final stage by [[trading]], and they both have a 75% male gender ratio. Also, Alakazam excels at the {{stat|Special Attack}} stat, while Machamp excels at {{stat|Attack}}.

Machamp appears to be based on a {{wp|bodybuilder}} or wrestler.
