How to Use Cross Chop

Close the Distance Between the Enemy

Pokemon UNITE - Machamp Finishes Zeraora with Cross Chop

Cross Chop is a quick and clean dash move that can get Machamp close enough to an opponent to get the punches rolling. You can even use the move to get through small obstacles to reach your targets.

Use Submission First to Increase Crit Rate

Pokemon UNITE - Machamp Dealing Critical Damage Cross Chop

Cross Chop allows you to close distance towards your target and has a bonus of increasing your basic attack damage when fully upgraded. When used in conjunction with Submission, your basic attacks will have an increased critical chance so once both moves are used, auto-attack your opponent to oblivion.

Cross Chop Patch History

1.1.1.4 Damage dealt to opposing Pokemon decreased from 1322 to 941 (-29%).
