Don't trade with someone else- just create a trade with machoke and then call it back to profile- it'll be evolved. Sam was smart and made the pokes not evolve when traded so (1) if it's a swap back deal and the other guy refuses to trade back, you're not screwed and (2) you can trade kadabras and machokes to complete pokedexes without having to worry about them evolving before you want them to.
