You need to be in the GAME section
This is indeed Pokemon discussion, but its not intended for the Pokemon games.
There is a way, there is a Thread in the D/P section with a trick to evolve pokemons without the trade.
COuld you post a link? Its in the 4th gen? checked there but which forum?
Trade with someone else that has the same game or a combatible game. So basically games that are on the same handheld. E.g. Ruby and Emerald are both on GBA, so you can trade between those two games. Ideally that someone else has another Pokemon (like Kadabra) that needs to be traded to evolve. That way you kill two birds with one stone. To trade you obviously need a link cable and you need to go upstairs in a Pokecenter. Follow the commands and select your Machoke while your friend select their Kadabra (or any Pokemon for that matter) to trade. When the trade is complete your Machoke will evolve on the other person's game. To get your newly evolved Machamp. Just trade back. Some Pokemon need to be holding an item while they trade to evolve. But Machoke doesn't.

The evolution trick over the GTS only works if it has to hold an item to evolve, such as with Steelix or Electivire.
