Collector Insights
Giovanni's Machamp is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless energy. Its primary attack, Hurricane Punch, requires three Fighting and one Colorless energy to deal 30 damage multiplied by the number of heads from four flipped coins. The card includes a Pokémon Power ability called Fortitude, which allows Giovanni's Machamp to avoid being Knocked Out by an opponent's attack if a coin flip results in heads, reducing its remaining HP to 10 instead. It has no resistances but is weak to Psychic-type attacks with double damage. The card was released in the Gym series as part of the Gym Challenge set on October 16, 2000. Designed by artist Ken Sugimori, it carries a theme color of light beige. The card's rarity is listed as Rare Holo, and it is numbered 6 in its set.
