Is Machoke…

The most human-like Pokémon? Telme 18:26, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

I'd say so. Closest to a human as I've ever seen a Pokémon. - unsigned comment from Missingno. Master (talkcontribs) 18:30, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
Well, you could make an argument for Hitmonchan and Mr. Mime The Dark Fiddler - Nos hablamos? 18:55, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
Jynx is also quite a good competitor. UltimateSephiroth (about me · chat · edits) 19:11, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
Before we go any further, I have to ask. Does this actually have anything to do with the article? The Dark Fiddler - Nos hablamos? 19:12, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
No, unless Telme thought of adding that as a piece of trivia. UltimateSephiroth (about me · chat · edits) 19:15, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Um?

Machoke does appear in platinum. Route 210 I found it. --Lustre 06:34, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

The Hulk

Hey, is it me, or does its shiny form sorta look like The Hulk? Would this be worthy of being trivia? - Gold Dialga

It's just you, and no. R.A. Hunter Blade 23:17, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
I think it looks like Hulk too, so its not just him. --Mattii 00:17, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Still, no sprite trivia. Gliscorguy54 00:24, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
A better rule of thumb is "no opinionated comparisons". —darklordtrom 07:06, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Belt

Would it be worth mentioning in the trivia that it appears to have a Championship belt around it's waist? - TiTAn 12:45, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Scrap that it's in the physiology section - TiTAn 12:49, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Family Guy in Trivia

In Family Guy Episode "April In Quahog", A superhero that strongly resembles Machoke is seen depicted on a poster in Chris's room. I don't think that's notable or well-written, but I don't want to start an edit war, however. So...any thoughts? Wolf 18:49, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Well, I actually watched the episode, and I do agree that there is a heavy resemblance of it, right down to the colors. I think it's notable enough to keep. Jello 19:03, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Name's origin

The trivia section mentions this: "Machoke's name may be a combination of macho, which is Spanish for overly masculine or chauvinist...". This statement is wrong, in spanish the word "macho" means just "male" and nothing else.<<godshawk>> 22:05, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Quotes?

Should we add Machoke's quotes such as in Sapphire, Ruby, Emerald or ORAS version?

They were NPC that helped the family move to the new town. Is this too far-fetched? MannedTooth (talk) 04:13, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

I'd say no, since it's nothing really worth noting.--ForceFire 04:20, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
