@ChesswithGautham, does your #150 comment mean a 1 move checkmate is possible?

MirthyChess
Or maybe just is black opens up the king and the only thing white can do is give a check

Illegal move in both the given position and in the starting position.

GM_Rajat_Shenoi

The minimum is 2 moves. 1 move checkmate is impossible in legal chess.

JanesMason

2 moves for black, 3 moves for white. minimum.

mrfreezyiceboy

if there wasn't any position where you could checkmate in one move, then checkmate wouldn't be a thing at all

and chess wouldnt be a thing at all either

so
