I finally got my all-time bro into my game. He is Adamant and has No Guard.

I'm planning on giving him the following:
Dynamic Punch
Payback

What do you think would best be placed on the remaining two slots?
I'm thinking the following:
Stone Edge for crit-rate and against flying-types
Bullet Punch for priority against Fairies
Fire Punch for Steel/Psychics, Steel/Fairies
Ice Punch for Dragons and Gliscor

Or do you have a better set altogether? Should I also include at least one defensive move like Protect?

I would go with:
>DynamicPunch
>Bullet Punch
>Payback
>Stone Edge

Knock Off is better than Payback though but Payback can work.

If you're set on using No Gaurd Dynamic Punch this is the set you're using:

Machamp @ Lum Berry / Leftovers
Ability: No Guard
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Dynamic Punch
- Knock Off
- Stone Edge
- x

x depending on what you'd rather run, Leftovers or Lum Berry. If you run Leftovers, your last slot will be Facade because it now ignores the Burn damage drop and Machamp will still pack a punch even while burning alive.

If you opt to go for Lum Berry the last move slot becomes a bit more interesting. You could use Bullet Punch, but its low damage, lack of Stab, and poor coverage make it rather uninteresting. One of the elemental punches is your best bet. I cannot say for certain what coverage your team needs, but look it over and pick one of the elemental punches that best covers what you lack.

steel/fairy and steel/psychic is hit just as hard with dynamic punch (100 * 1.5 = 150) as it is with fire punch (75 * 2 = 150).

i'd take dynamic punch, stone edge, ice punch, bullet punch

Crap, I've only now realized the boost/buff to Knock Off (I didn't conisder it at first because from what I know, it was weak in past gens). And I just finished EV training and Amie-ing the hell out of my Machop. Someone give me the patience to breed.

No dark move against Psychics, though.
