Possibility of superior moveset on Machamp?

With the experience of special moves being released in past community days, I've been (and I'm sure many others are as well) saving high IV relevant pokemon for future community days. I've got quite a few Machop saved up, and wondering if I should save them for later or expand my Machamp army now. Will there be a better moveset than C/DP on Machamp?

I very seriously doubt it would get a better move as it is already the top fighting pokemon.

I doubt it. Moves and features from special events and community days so far have helped species either live up to their unmet potential, or at least become more fun or interesting. Machamp is already living up to its potential as the top fighting type with it’s available movesets.

I suppose they could give it sunglasses. That seems to be a thing these days.

No way, sunglasses are SO Squirtle!! Perhaps they can give it a Reebok /UFC branded tank top shirt (or some Niantic Commercial Partner brand) or have it wear 4 MMA fighting gloves

About as unlikely as a precpice blades or origin pulse community day.

Draco Meteor wasn't an improvement on Outrage for Dragonite, so the Machamp special move could be similar - comparable DPS but 1-bar. Maybe Focus Punch or Superpower?

My strategy with the future community days is trying to get Lucky Pokemon. I've gotten 2 Lucky Machops that i'm going to save for the next community day. I'm also looking to trade for Cefairy and some others and gen 2 starters to get them lucky as well.

Machamp has the best moveset it can have. One of the best fast moves in the game, with a two bar 90 attack. Since everyone has a few maxed out, I hope they diverse the scene and give us another good fighting type soon. Gallade possible. Sometimes I use Blazekin on gyms because using Machamp all the time gets boring. I even throw in a Breloom from time to time. Machamp is great, but I wish they would change things up.

Maybe one day they will make a rule only one kind of each Pokémon on your team? I have over a dozen Smack Down Ttar which is boring with the legendary bird days we have. No sense in powering anything up anymore.

And with a team of maxed out Machamp, why would I power up Moltres or Kyogre for the Regis? I already have the second best attacker, so might as well save the stardust.
