Machamp · 38 cards · 1999–2023

How much is a Machamp card worth?

There are 38 English Machamp cards, spread over 26 sets between 1999 and 2023. The first was Machamp in Base, 9 January 1999, drawn by Ken Sugimori in the very first English sets. It has carried 7 of the game's card types over the years — V, Dark, VMAX, owner’s card — and a collector will pay wildly different money for each.

What we pay is a different number. These are TCGplayer market prices, worked out from recent sales between collectors, read 2026-09-08. What a buyer pays is always less than what a collector pays, and it turns on the condition of the card in your hand — which is why you get our number on the phone, in one call, before anything is posted.

What decides the number

Five things about your Machamp, in order of how much they matter.

  1. Which printing. Machamp spans 26 sets, from Base in 1999 to 151 in 2023, and the set symbol beside the picture is what tells one from another before anything else about the card is worth discussing.
  2. First edition and shadowless. 5 of the 38 date from 1999–2000, and on a Machamp of that age the small “1 Edition” stamp left of the art, or a frame throwing no drop shadow down the right of the picture, is worth more than everything else on this list put together.
  3. Which card type. A Machamp V and a Machamp Dark are different cards that happen to share a name — Machamp has been printed as 7 types in all, so the word beside Machamp at the top decides which of the 38 you own.
  4. Promo stamps. 4 of the 38 Machamp cards were promos rather than pack pulls, and a black star, a tournament stamp or a set-launch mark in the corner is what turns an otherwise ordinary Machamp into the scarce one.
  5. Centering. Hold your Machamp at arm’s length and look at the border: a Machamp with a visibly fatter margin on one side is capped on grade before condition is even discussed, and the Astral Radiance printings are the ones we see off-centre most often.
  • Most Machamp cards are Rare Holo — 16 of the 38.
  • Ken Sugimori has illustrated Machamp more than anyone else, 5 times.
  • Astral Radiance carries the most Machamp cards of any single set (5).
  • Machamp has been printed under 7 card types: V, Dark, VMAX, owner’s card, Light, LV.X.
  • No Machamp card was printed at all for 3 years, 2010 to 2013.
  • 5 of the 38 Machamp cards come from 1999–2000, the printings collectors ask after most.
  • 26 different illustrators have drawn Machamp.
  • 24 years separate the first Machamp card from the newest.
