Machamp, has better overall stats, and when you've got that power, speed's not a necessity.

How great is a Dynamic Punch that always hits???

Machamp.

This is false. Power without speed means that you're open to something else coming in and killing you/incapacitating you before you have a chance to use that power.

That said, Machamp is the better Pokemon. As noted above, a 100% accurate Dynamicpunch is fantastic. It's also more versatile and can effectively use more moves. Also? It has the highest Attack stat of all Fighting type Pokemon (tied with Breloom.)

If an offensive Pokemon like Primape can't hurt things, it's nigh useless. Machamp is clearly superior despite it's lack of speed.

Speed is always important, and Vital Spirit can be a nice ability, but Machamp is more useful overall. DynamicPunch destroys almost everything that doesn't resist it, and it cripples anything that does.

I chose Primeape, cause I believe that stats and stuff shouldn't matter, If you like the Pokemon, you can always find a way to win with it (like for example I beat Wallace with pretty much my Blaziken alone).

I'm going with Machamp. 100% accurate DynamicPunches are nothing to laugh at. It also looks cool

Yeah, well that's because Blaziken is awesome

Machamp is better, by far. Mine has Guts instead of no Gaurd, though.....:bawling:

Machamp, because of better stats/battle ability.

Re: primeape or machamp()

I don't care for battle ability or all that whatnot.

I haven't used a Machamp outside of Red since I don't trade much however I have used it's pre-evolutions. I prefer Primeape by quite a long shot.

The only Dynamic Punch, Bullet Punch, machine. Machamp wins in everything but looks.

I don't know about stats, but I prefer Machamp. Pig Monkey cannot compete with the four armed awesomeness that is Machamp.

Primeape is infinitely cooler...who cares about stats?

Re: primeape or machamp()

.... you think a weird pig monkey's better than pure muscle? Machamp DESTROYS Primape

You think a weird four armed guy shooting up steroids is cooler than the pure awesomeness that is primeape? works both ways!

Re: primeape or machamp()

Who cares if he's on steriods he don't go ape on everyone

Re: primeape or machamp()

At least Machamp doesn't charge people on eye contact

Primeape's Pokedex Entry:

It grows angry if you see its eyes and gets angrier if you run. If you beat it, it gets even madder...

Epic. I have to go with the ape.

I never liked the Machop line except for Machoke.
