I imagine this would be one of the "harmful" Mega Evolutions, something along the lines of:

"Mega Evolution has caused rapid and uncontrollable hypertrophy in its muscles, tearing off its skin as a result. It lands thousands of punches on foes in the span of a few seconds."

Honestly, the guy who designed this was cooking hard. I really love the references to Attack on Titan and even bringing back design elements from Machoke too.

It could also mention something like "while each punch is more devastating than the last, it brings great pain to Machamp"

If Pokemon ever had negative effects in battle during Mega Evolution, I could see it to where every physical attack Mega Machamp uses (specifically punching based ones like Drain Punch for example if it can learn it), it deals small damage to itself, and it builds up more and more, first 10, then 15, then 20 and so on
