Heracross or Hitmontop or Machamp?

Im trying to pick a fighting type for my team and came up with these three that I like. Which one is the best? Machamp is just a powerful sweeper with no guard hitting everything no matter what and the 100% confusion:), heracross has 2 powerful stabs which neither one of those fighting pokemon has and has a pretty good sp defense too. I dont even know why hitmontop is in UU, he has 2 amazing abilities, intimidate if you want to make it bulky and technician for sweeper,he can fill both roles. He also has ALOT of prority moves with techinician to kill everything before he gets attacked. Its attack stat isnt anything special but it can always boost it with a life orb or choice band.

wellheracrossis a good type and could be a good type sweeper@life orb or you can go flame orb to burn yourselfguts-atk becomes 1.5 when burnedadamant or jolly252atk 252speedclose combat - stab great powermegahorn - another stab with great power coverage from pyschicstone edge - coverage against flying fire and iceswords dance - double atkso this set is great and can be very usefull with flame orb it burns you then guts turns that 50% atk drop into a 50% atk increasewith this set its atk boost becomes the same as when holding choice band but with the effect of life orb.this meens you loose a little hp every turn but you can use more than one moveso you can use swords dance :)

machamp has great atk and decent defit also has the abilitys no guard and gutsso@muscle band or life orbadamant252atk 252speedno guardstone edge - great power good c hit chance also 100%acc coveragedynamic punch - great high power stabpayback - makes use of low speed also coverageice punch - gets rid of ground and dragonswith no guard dynamic punch 50acc becomes 100%acc with 100 power as well not bad it then gets added stab 150 as well as confuses opponent

or@flame orbsame just with guts and close combat instead of dynamic punch

intimidate isnt the best optian but is great in uu as pb said one of the reasons its so good in uuit also lets you make use of more powerfull moves like close combat but im no good with hitmontop@life orbtechnicianadamant252atk 252hpbullet punch-prioritymach punch - priority plus stabsucker punch - priority plus coveragefake out maybe - priority plus cancles sturdyok so i have never done a movest for hitmontop before so this movest probably sucks and to be fare i wouldnt use hitmontop for the reason that its outclassed by the other pokemonso i wouldnt use hitmontop and if you did maybe check somewhere like smogon for a decent movest

From personal experiences I would definetly choose a Heracross because it has a lot of stab moves: Megahorn, Focus blast, focus punch, u turn, etc.If you are looking for help with the PKMN here are some tips:

Heracross @ Focus Sash, Focus BandMoveset:Megahorn: STAB + covers Psycic ( sorry can’t spell good)Brick Break: STAB + plus takes out hardheaded Rocks, Steels, Darks, and Ice’sEarthquake: DUH! moment but it takes out them dumb old Fire typesStone Edge: Coverage for Flying types

Hope this helps!

Personally, I would say Hitmontop because it gets technician, has good bulk and gets hazard removal. It can also be run both defensively, with intimidate to drop attack on Pokemon like machamp or heracross and rapid spin to remove hazards, or offensively with technician because of its access to priority which is technician boosted.

Heracross or machamp but heracross is the winner here,but I am going to give movesets for herecross and machamp a moveset too.But no for hitmontop.
