Now with color!
Went and saw Detective Pikachu. (don't worry, no spoils) It was a total blast and the multiple machamp appearances just made it better. :D

Got me thinking: although machamp is and always will be my favorite poke, I have almost no drawings of him. Mainly due to all the MAAAASCLES. The 'beak' always felt weird to draw as well, could never feel like I was drawing it right.

So here's an improvised character / my pokesona, a machamp who didn't really apply himself.
"Oh a machamp! You must be pretty strong!"
"I'm actually not. But I make up for it in speed!"
"Oh, you run?"
"Yeah! I'm a speedrunner."
"..."
He eats like a speedrunner too, since he's always gotta get back to the important stuff. Frequently gives himself hiccups and heartburn as well as some pudge.
