Machamp-GX, Burning Shadows #154

Burning Shadows is a set in the Sun & Moon series. It was released on August 5, 2017. The printed size is 147. This checklist is longer, at 177 cards. Machamp-GX is 154/147, in position 162 of 177 on this checklist. Before it is 153 Necrozma-GX, and after it is 155 Lycanroc-GX. The collector number is above the printed set size of 147. The listed rarity is Rare Rainbow.

Machamp-GX is a Stage 2 GX Fighting Pokémon with 250 HP. In the Pokédex this is Machamp (#068), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Machoke. In this catalog that name is Machoke (#067).

5ban Graphics illustrated this card. The same name is on 1,629 other cards in the catalog.

Machamp (#068) has 48 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 30 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2023. The earliest other card is Machamp 8/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Machamp, while this one is Machamp-GX. That card lists 100 HP, and this one lists 250 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare Rainbow. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. 46 other cards of Machamp list a different HP.

The attack Cross-Cut lists 60+ damage. The cost is Fighting, Fighting. If your opponent's Active Pokémon is an Evolution Pokémon, this attack does 60 more damage. Bedrock Breaker is another attack lists 130 damage. The cost is Fighting, Fighting, Fighting. Discard any Stadium card in play. Muscle Punch-GX is another attack lists 180 damage. The cost is Fighting, Fighting, Fighting. This attack's damage isn't affected by Resistance. (You can't use more than 1 GX attack in a game.) Weakness is Psychic ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The card text says: Pokémon-GX rule: When your Pokémon-GX is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.

I keep a set binder for Burning Shadows, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Burning Shadows set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Machamp can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
