Blissey question #9828 on IV distribution

I have 2 blissey's and only enough candy to power 1 up to 30.

Both are level 24 and both have pound/psy (not sure if I should be happy or sad). I figured even if I evolve a third Blissey I will not have enough candy to power it up.

So my question is which to power up based on stats distribution. I don't get why the att IV changes the CP so much.

Blissey 1: CP 2194 (15/14/11) (89%) Health 340

Blissey 2: CP 2189 (14/15/14) (96%) Health 342

Question 1: Why is it my lower IV blissey has a higher CP? I can't believe that 1 att stat difference more than makes up for the several point difference in def and health.

Question 2: Which one to power up? Higher attack and CP or higher health?

  1. Because the attack stat is higher. Attack influences CP more than def and stam, and on Blissey the IVs will make a bigger proportional change to the overall attack stat than def and especially stam.
  2. I'd power up #1, but it's really close either way. #1 will have higher CP, whereas #2 is slightly tankier.

Are you sure they are the same lvl?
Just doesnt fit..
And imo Blissey is all about health so #2

Yes I've checked a few times. You have the numbers above to double check. Both at 3500 stardust to next power up.

Do let me know if I screwed up =)

I was thinking you want your health and defence stat to be as high as possible because she usually wins by timing the attacker out. Plus on defence your health meter doubles.

But then again CP is important for gym placement.

Each IV point in attack, defense, and stamina has an approximate relative increase in CP of 1/BaseAttack, 1/2BaseDefense, and 1/2BaseStamina (respectively).

In the case of Blissey, this means each attack IV point increases your CP by about .8%, whereas each stamina IV point only increases your CP by about .1%
