# Machamp #9/101 — Hidden Legends

## Summary

Machamp is a Gen I fan favorite, the four-armed bruiser who has anchored Fighting-type nostalgia since Red and Blue. Its Poké-Body punished ex-heavy opponents in an era built around them, and as a Holo Rare in a mid-sized set it sits in the comfortable middle of the pull tier. The modelled guide sits at $45, up 6% over 30 days on 4 copies traded, with 90 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $629, 14 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
