#34 Machoke - Base (base1)
Machoke is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 80 HP from the Base set, released in 1999. Designed by Ken Sugimori, it features a flavor text about its muscular body and the need for a power-save belt to regulate its motions. It has two attacks: Karate Chop, which costs two Fighting and one Colorless energy to deal 50- damage, reducing the total by 10 for each damage counter on Machoke, and Submission, requiring four Energy to deal 60 damage while inflicting 20 damage to itself. The card is weak to Psychic-type attacks, multiplying damage by two, and has a retreat cost of three Colorless energy. It is classified as Uncommon rarity and lacks any resistances or special abilities. The card’s design emphasizes its physical strength and the challenges of controlling its power. Its themecolor of #c6ae69 reflects a warm, earthy tone associated with its Fighting-type identity.
