When going into the Tier 3 Raids with Machamp as a Raid Boss, players should power up their Pokemon as much as possible and ensure that it has all the necessary moves, even if it isn't one of the previously listed Pokemon.

Players should also keep revives handy in case Machamp is not defeated on the first try. There should also be at least three trainers to challenge the Fighting-type Pokemon in difficult Tier 3 Raids.

Lastly, players should keep in mind that Machamp is boosted by cloudy weather in Pokemon GO. So, if players encounter the Pokemon when it's cloudy, they should just wait a day or two for a change in the weather.
