Some Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet players are worried that Machop and its evolved forms, Machoke and Machamp, might not make it into the games' paid DLC Expansion Passes, both entitled "The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero". That's why I have started a petition to request both Game Freak and The Pokémon Company to add them to the returning Pokémon in the DLC.

UPDATE: The last part of The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, The Indigo Disk, has released on December 14, 2023, and Machop and its evolutions didn't make it—the petition has failed. I'm sorry. We tried.
