Clinchamp

Clinchamp is a fictional Pokémon species. Described as a fighting-type Pokémon, Clinchamp is known for its powerful grappling and wrestling moves. It is said to train rigorously in mountain regions, honing its strength and technique. Its design typically incorporates elements suggestive of wrestling attire, such as a belt or stylized gloves. While not an officially recognized Pokémon within the core Pokémon video game series developed by Game Freak, Clinchamp is a commonly created fan-made Pokémon (often referred to as a "Fakemon") within the broader Pokémon fandom. These fan creations often include custom stats, move sets, and Pokédex entries that mimic the style of the official Pokémon games. The name "Clinchamp" itself suggests a combination of "clinch," a grappling technique, and "champ," short for champion, further reinforcing its fighting-type and wrestling-inspired design. Its popularity stems from the community's creativity in imagining new Pokémon species and expanding the existing Pokémon universe.
