Machamp and Pinsir - mines working fine!

Sorry but ai read a lot saying machamp even with kc and cross are no good.
My machamp is 2591 10/15/15and really kicks snorlaxs but. Dodging a lot is required. But I manage 3 kc between the zen heads and cross kicksass.
If alakazam is consider good, with dodging being a rule. Machamp can be too using this same way of battle.
Also my pinsir DESTROYS exegs now, even faster them arcanines or anything really.. Fury cutter and xsci are crazy fast, makes dodges so easy.
To mee dodging is now a part of the game, and do it makes battles more interesting then simply spam and pray. Also you can kill mons faster using most effec possible moves and typing.
Also interested to know how my currently 1440cp jynx w/ frostb icepunch will perform after powered up.. Top ice attk in the game.
Any agree or desagre? And why?

Thanks.

I had a really good pincir but then gave it away. This new CP change makes me regret it now??

Not sure how the Jynx will fare powered up as I have never battled her, but I'm sure it would be fairly adequate after the buff. People on this forum seem a little too caught up with the Pokemon with the absolute best statistical performance and failing to consider the fun that gym battling is meant to be. Being one of my favorite Pokemon, I also have a 2500+ Machamp with CC/KC and jump at every opportunity I get to use him despite better options I have access to. Even after visiting a Pinsir nest, I sadly do not have a decent IV with FC/XS but seeing how much lower parasects with it preform, I'm sure it would be a monster.

Exactly! I lik machamp too! But Im saying this even from an effectiness point of view! Its so nice to use him.
I also powered up my alakazam with psyco cut and shadowball, and i use only quick move and its awesome!
My pinsir is currently 2322, not maxed. Kills 3 exegs alone!

You make me really curious about my Pinsir, a 1855CP one with perfect offensive moveset after the buff, but his IVs is too low. Now I will consider catching more Pinsirs and power up the best one. You know, I have more than 400 Pinsir's candy now.

There is a crazy Jynx nest in my area. If you go there expect to catch 5-6 Jynx. I usually hit it 2-3 times a day. With this availability it's been pretty much been my go to mon lately. He/she/it performs well against a ton of Pokémon no matter what moveset it gets. I've yet to power one up, due to having so many, I can't cycle them fast enough. But yeah, solid.

+1 for machamp and jynx. Better than average for sure.

Tried the Pinsir for the first time yesterday for training. You are right, very good against Exeg with much higher CP and dodging was easy (I am normally not very good at dodging alas).

I just evolved Machamp yesterday.
Karate Chop - Stone Edge. Not sure how I feel about those moves.

Have had a 14/14/14 93% Pinsir 1567CP (about 25% room still to power up) with Rock Smash/Vice Grip for a long time. I don't ever use though.
