What it does
As long as Machamp is your Active Pokémon, each of Machamp's attacks does 60 more damage to the Active Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance) and any damage done to Machamp by your opponent's Pokémon is increased by 60 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).
During your opponent's next turn, if Machamp would be Knocked Out by damage from an attack, flip a coin. If heads, Machamp is not Knocked Out and its remaining HP becomes 10 instead.
Put this card onto your Active Machamp. Machamp LV.X can use any attack, Poké-Power, or Poké-Body from its previous level.

Where it came from
The Machamp LV.X card was released in 2008 as part of the Stormfront expansion, the final set in the Diamond and Pearl series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Level X cards represented a significant mechanical shift during this era, featuring unique 'level-up' rules that allowed players to place the card atop a standard evolution of the same name to access expanded abilities and higher hit points. This specific card was designed to highlight Machamp's overwhelming physical strength, utilizing the Strong-Willed Poké-Power to grant the card immunity to damage from attacks if the player was behind on prize cards.
The illustration was rendered by artist Ryo Ueda, whose dramatic, high-contrast style became a hallmark of the Diamond and Pearl era. Ueda focused on a dynamic, close-up perspective to emphasize the character's muscular physique and imposing presence. Within the competitive landscape of the time, the card was respected for its defensive capabilities, though its utility was often debated by players who had to balance the technical limitations of the Level X mechanic against the power of standard Stage 2 Pokémon.
