Machamp #8 Value (Base Set)
Pokemon card price guide: raw and graded values, eBay sold prices and price history. Updated Oct 5, 2026.
Unlike most Base Set Rare Holos, Machamp number 8 was distributed through the introductory two player starter product, making it far more available than its rarity label suggests. Ken Sugimori's art frames the Fighting type in a classic action pose. Its low raw band and middle set price rank reflect that unusually broad supply.
