In the anime
Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket and the former Gym Leader of Viridian City, has a Machamp. He loaned it to Jessie, James and Meowth after he put them in charge of the gym.
A Machamp was used by the Pirate trainer to battle Ash's Squirtle during the opening of Mewtwo Strikes Back.
Morrison battled against a Machamp and Marowak belonging to a very muscular trainer named Gavin during the Hoenn League in AG127. Morrison's Gligar managed to defeat Gavin's Machamp.
A Machamp belonging to Noland made a cameo appearance in AG135.
In AG140, Emily used Machamp and its two pre-evolved forms to chase after her runaway Psyduck.

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 male. 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.
