    Trivia

    • In Generation II, Machop's shiny had dark gray skin instead of brown-tan skin. The normal form experiences this brown-tan skin color. This was changed in Generation III, where Machop's skin was turned blue instead of brown.
    • In the Generation I games, Machop and Omanyte have the same cry.

    Origin

    Machop seems to resemble a bodybuilder while also having reptilian attributes reminiscent of lizards. As shown by its name, its reptilian features may relate to the extinct Moschops which is possibly further evidenced by its head frills, as Moschops were theorized to partake in headbutting as a form of fighting due to their thick skulls.

    Etymology

    Machop may come from macho (someone overly masculine), chop, and possibly Moschops.
