Trivia
Machamp's original English name was Ju-Doh.
Origin
Machamp appears to be based on a bodybuilder or wrestler. Also, due to having four arms, it could have been inspired by Kintaro, a boss character from Mortal Kombat II.
Name origin
Machamp's name may be a combination of champion and macho, which is Spanish for overly masculine or chauvanist. Macho has come to mean tough or masculine in English. Like Mr. Mime, this is not reflected in the gender distribution. Kairiky is a corruption of 怪力 kairiki, superhuman strength. It is worth noting that kairiki is the Japanese name of Strength.
In other languages
- German: Machomei
- French: Mackogneur - macho has a similar meaning as in English. cogneur means slugger. The ch was likely replaced by the ck to keep the sound of cogneur intact
- Korean: 괴력몬 Gwiryeokmon
