Been a while since I've encountered Heavy Slam, but against fighting charge moves
2511 C/FS Espeon
2448 PC/FS Alakazam
3213 DT/Hurricane Dragonite
2554 C/SoB Exeggutor
3314 Mewtwo C/ShB
3177 Lugia EX/SA

Beat Close Combat with 28-30 sec left. Dynamic Punch 12-14 remaining***enough leeway can put another Ala or Espeon in, nothing is MVP but practically impossible to faint with a Lugia. Also don't dodge unless you want some excitement like you are really fighting

Here's the team I used to solo him twice with my daughter's level 33 account:

Alakazam 2313 C/FS
Espeon 2511 C/FS
Espeon 2459 C/FS
Mewtwo 3626 C/SB
Dragonite 3121 DT/H
Lugia 2439 ES/FS

With my own level 39 account, I can do it comfortably without legendaries:

Alakazam 2598 C/FS
Espeon 2507 C/FS
Espeon 2476 C/FS
Exeggutor 2916 C/P
Dragonite 3201 DT/H
Dragonite 3428 DT/O

The key is not dodging too much - only enough to get in two FS for each of the first three psychic glass cannons (which isn't always possible). For a slightly tankier lineup, I can substitute in a CP 2532 Charizard with WA/OH for an Alakazam or Espeon. If the Machamp has an easier moveset like C/CC, I can put in another C/FS Alakazam in place of the DT/O Dragonite, and win a little faster.

2478 Espeon C/FS
2556 Espeon C/P
2725 Exeggutor C/P
3421 Dragonite DT/H
3409 Dragonite DT/O
2452 Alakazam PC/P

I've been using this lineup for a while. Usually finish with anywhere between 10-25 seconds left.

Machamp has probably been the tier 3 boss that has given me the least amount of trouble (aside from the new additions of Scyther and Porygon).

Here are three separate successful teams I have seen used. All level 31 or below pokes, some legacy though.

2512 93 IV C/Psy Espeon
2376 82 IV Pc/Dg Zam
2444 84 IV ZH/Psy Egg
2321 96IV C/Psy Egg
2409 73 IV ZH/SoB Egg
2408 67 IV ZH/SoB Egg
Won < 5 sec (forget moveset)

2577 100 IV C/FS Zam
2517 86 IV C/Psy Espeon
2538 93 IV ZH/Psy Egg
2464 89 IV C/Psy Egg
2473 93IV C/SoB Egg
2508 96 IV E/SoB Egg
Won 20 seconds left (forget moves)

2144 100IV C/FS Zam
2456 96IV Pc/FS Zam
2108 80IV E/SoB Egg
2518 93IV ZH/SoB Egg
2373 56IV C/SoB Egg
2240 84IV ZH/Psy Egg
Most recently, won <5 sec C/DP champ. Took three tries and required good dodging.

As you can see, I use Exeggutor heavily. It is tanky and SoB delivers a big hit (Ho-Oh anyone?).

Depending upon biome, you may have better access to Egg than Dragon and you said you don’t have big Lugia or Mewtwo.

Good luck.

I just did BP/CC with 10 seconds remaining today. (I admit I used a raid tracker map to check the Machamp's moveset before going)

1: Alakazam CP 2639 L34 PC/FS 100%
2: Espeon CP 2527 L30 ZH/FS 86%
3: Espeon CP 2447 L30 C/FS 62%
4: Espeon CP 2310 L29 C/Pb 53%
5: Dragonite CP 3050 L31 DB/Hu 82%
6: Gengar CP 2222 L31 SC/ShB 82% (unused)

First Alakazam got 3 FS off by dodging 2 CCs.
ZH/FS Espeon only got 1 FS off, as it got hit by 2 CC.
C/FS Espeon got 2 FS off, got hit by 1 CC.
C/Pb Espeon got 4 Pb off. Dodged 1 CC.
Dragonite got 2 Hurricanes off, no dodging. 2nd Hurricane finished off
Machamp.
I still can't solo C/DP. I might need to power up a Lugia for that.

PS: Someone else was using 2 phones trying to duo Machamp. He was shocked that Machamp was solo-able! He just used the Lugias in his auto select lineup.
When his auto select chose an Alakazam and an Espeon too, he asked me, "Are these good for fighting Machamps?"

I typically use an espeon, a handful of Dragons, a slowking, and an empty slot or two

Since you don't have a Mewtwo yet, i would stick with Espeons, Alakazams and hurricane Dragonites. Here is my typical line up for the Machamp not including my Mewtwo.
3000 C/FS Espeon
2986 C/FS Espeon
2887 C/FS Alakazam
2804 PC/FS Alakazam
3573 DT/H Dragonite
(usually machamp dies at 5th mon)
For me, the key is to avoid dodging too much but just enough to fire at least 2 FS from Espeons and Alakazams. Eggys are good options as well.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Dont need mewto and lugia for soloing machamp (unless you want to cause you want to use it)
Alakazam, Espeon, Exeggutor, Dragonite with a right moveset is a good base for soloing machamp.
Gengar also not bad if you like it..
Just level up all to level 30 and test it, than use your judgement on which need more power up.
More fun than just strictly using all breakpoint list.
When they all strong enough to consistently win against machamp, you can play around to add another non mainstream attacker to the mix if you want to add more excitement
For example, I am using clefable, slowbro, dodrio against machamp just for the fun of it..

3008 Dragonite DT/H
3716 Mewtwo PC/SB
2947 Espeon C/FS
2604 Exeggutor C/P
2840 Exeggutor C/SoB
3451 Dragonite DB/O

Never failed with this lineup. If you don't have a Mewtwo, just power up another Espeon.

I don't have either a Mewtwo or Lugia, but this has worked for me.

Alakazam 2491 C/FS
Alakazam 2479 C/P
Espeon 2646 C/P
Gengar 2287 SC/SB
Dragonite 3139 DT/H
Exeggutor 2438 E/P

Didn't even get to the Eggs with the last one I did, but it was a C/CC.

My first solo before i powered up more to deal with failed dodges due to slow internet was the following in order:
3 lvl31 espeon 98,91,86 percent
1 lvl 31 alakazam 96 percent
All confusion future sight

1 lvl 31 dragontail outrage dragonite 96%
1lvl31 moltres fs overheat

This will require almost perfect dodging against dynamic punch machamp but all variants were dooable 3 months ago with that loadout( with good internet)
W/o dodging (or bad internet)i currently bring the same pokemon except moltres was replaced with another 96 dragonite(dragon tail outrage), 98 espeon is lvl36 96 alakazam, and both dragonites are lvl 33.
