Alakazam Confusion/Psychic
I've just evolved my third Alakazam. Two previous ones gave me Confusion/Shadow Ball and Psycho Cut/Shadow Ball. So my newest is by far my best Alakazam. But still not the best. Or is it good too? Should i power it up or wait till another with psycho cut/psychic?

After the charge move to maximise HP efficiency i.e. total damage done before fainting / switching out, as soon as it's available to maximise time efficiency i.e. how fast you defeat the Pokemon.
Don't do it at the start of the fight because that's when your opponent gets 3 quick moves off in a small time period, so you'd be taking more damage using your charge move then rather than later when the defender follows it's normal quick move timing.
I guess, you dont consider using him as an exotic defender then? My 98% Zam actually came out with the same moveset and I think, despite of the very low HP, he is still not exactly fun to deal with, since Confusion deals an extraordinary amount of damage
Vaporeon is probably going to eat him for breakfast though... Its a pretty cool looking mon though and I like to have some variety in the gym.
Anyway, if that's not what you are looking for, PC P is absolutely inavoidable to have. So keep grinding those Abra candy mate :)
Btw, I am quite sure you do have some nests in your town, because even I have 2 in my 2000 people village.^^
