I have been seeing many Infernape Luxray decks not running Skuntank & Toxicroak, why does this work when it seems like there is no way to counter Machamp?
please answer my question

cuz there's no more machamp. some of them still run skuntank, it's just that they have no space.

Unown G = Machamp counter for any basic.

The short answer is that it does have a way of countering Machamp...Unown G to prevent Take Out, Infernape 4 or Luxray GL to deal significant damage, and Uxie to hit Machamp's weakness.
Plus, Luxray GL Lv X and Infernape 4 Lv X both allow the deck to hit Machamp's frequent Bench-sitters, allowing easier prizes and disruption of their play.
Lastly, strategic Power Sprays help ensure that Luxray/Infernape sets up and deals damage long before Machamp is ready.

1. Run 2-3 Unown G
2. Run Uxie/LV X as your draw engine and Lucario GL for OHKO fun with Crobat
3. Ninetales tech + Lucario + Crobat will OHKO a Machamp if they have a benched Uxie or Axelf
4. Outspeed and disrupt their set up (most important)
Machamp is good at winning one-off games and not so good at winning consistently throughout a tournament (except in Juniors), so straight Machamp isn't played that much any more. That is probably one reason why Infernape/Luxray is a good play right now.
